## Background:
Team Fnatic and Team Liquid are long time rivals in the CS:GO tournaments.
Both teams qualified for the finals in the ESL Pro League 2021.
Team Fnatic is Edge’s preferred and strategic customer/ partner. Along the usual training by Edge, we have decided to aid by creating a unique training scenario for their players.
Edge’s most talented technology department took on this challenge.
**Your mission**, dear potential colleague, is to create a custom map with bots appearing (and shooting) at the player.
## Input:
1. Design a map with a spawn point for the player (as counter terrorist) and 2 bots (as terrorists).
2. The goal of the scenario is to kill both bots (no bomb).
3. Feel free to design the map as you like.
4. **Bonus** display on the wall in the player spawn point whether they killed the bots or died in the previous round.
## Output:
* Provide configurations and map files as well as a document describing your work and what we should expect. No need to compile it into a single bsp file as long as you provide all the configuration files.
## Technical pointers
Counter Strike files are edited with the Hammer SDK and requires the game and tools installed. We provide the full environment in the office if you prefer - just coordinate with us the time to come in :)
**Home setup** - You will need the game installed (Counter Strike) as well as the developer tool. After you donwload the game in Steam , head over to yiour library -> tools to download the Hammer SDK. You will also need a prime account, let us know and we will send you log in details to a prime account for the duration of this assignment.
**Starting points on hammer** here is a [basic article on Hammer setup from steam community](https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=787465547). There are many tutorials online on Hammer, a quick search on YouTube for Hammer Editor Tutorial will bring up a lost of options. I found the tutorial series by (Gaming Snake](https://www.youtube.com/user/GamingSnake001/featured) to be quite thorough.
## Important note
We recognize most people have not built maps for cs:go or worked in hammer sdk, it should be similar enough to existing tools to allow you to create a small map and spawn a player with two bots. Even if you don't get to the result you were aiming for (bots for example can be quite finicky) - don't worry and please still show us your progress as well as what you were aiming for. Last but not least, the map you are building will not be used by us in any way other than for candidate evaluation.
Time Frame for the Sprint:
Pls Deliver your work within a 6 day period.
Good luck.
We are available for questions and clarifications.
