Soda

Somewhere on Mann Mountain, a group of mercinaries are fighting over fizzy drinks!! It seems this place makes a pretty penny - and Falcon Soda (Mann Company, shh) has decided to squash newcomers, Novint Farm Supplies - who have this crazy idea that they have some chance of steeling the secret formula that Falcon's millions are built on. Falcon aren't taking this lightly - they're doing all they can to dig up the dirt on Novint - and preparing themselves for a fight!

you can also just make a big skybox
EDIT: they can only jump up 1376 units

I've no idea how high the cliffs will be - once alpha 1 is compiled I'm getting a friend who is proficient at multi-rocket jumping to try a climb - and then i'm clipping the tops and converting to player clips It's just vertical face to fire off atm - up to the skybox top.

Both the texture and the scale of them is just temp - so i can get a feel for the environment i'm trying to create.

But who cares about how high players can jump? Just make your top skybox brush high enough so a demo wont jump against it, and make skybox walls, this looks just dumb. If you look at badlands for example, walls are sure never over 1000u.
