Looks great and I see Node Tree management! It's easy to overlook organising the Node Tree but keeping all the content sorted into containers and managing properties of everything in a container gives you Sssooooo much power over the level. It's work to keep it that way but the time it can save is worth it.

It's impossible to think of making a large map without node tree management.
If I had to display the entire map at all time in DEdit my computer would surely be very slow.
I use a lot the Hidden all / Reveal all node in the container option to manage smooth workflow.
It's also very important for leak tracking and troubleshooting objects.
I derived most of the architecture from one of your map that showcased how to block the shell and add details in steps.
I thought this was a very great .ed file that was self explanatory.
I also use different the trim textures to block the shell and details, kind of took this habbit from you

Fantastic man, great you're still working on it.
So we're looking at a 2021 Release?
Remember to send me anything you want kept safe.
Still got a bunch of your stuff saved/secured.
Cheers

Dunno and frankly I don't wanna plan any release now, just know I'm working on it actively.
Will poke you around for that backup any time soon.

Some pictures taken today:
I'm fleshing things out right now on this map.
Adding details where it's needed to make corridor less empty.
I have about 3-4 small rooms to do and one large and it's over for this part of the campaign I can move along.
