I have a long way to go before finish the map, so I might include the elevator.

It's just a suggestion. Use your own judgement.

There are also two inaccessible walkways in the map. Both on the fourth level, in silos 4-H4 and 4-C3. Something could be done with those.

Silo has lots of possibilities.

Also note that you can see some air vents from the silos. Would be nice to be able to walk inside these.

Crappy map of Silo (Heavily modified by me. The original had major errors.):

Yea I was looking at the original map when a few weeks ago and noticed that the way they had it the silos didnt even match up.

For some reason this map is holding my interest. I hated it in the original game, but as a modified multiplayer arena, it has huge possibilities.

I took a walk around Silo today using my Gameshark to display the player coordinates. Some things I noted:

-Each individual silo is approximately 800 units in diameter. Just an eyeball estimate, but I think these units might represent centimeters. This would mean the silos are 8 meters across.
-The center of each silo is approx. 2700 units from the center of the adjacent silo.
-The elevator at the end of the map is sitting on top of the hallway just before the entrance to Silo Y (4-K2) on the floor below. So this elevator cannot possibly go down, unless its location is changed.
-Oddly, on the fourth floor, the entrances to Silo 4-K2 (silo Y) and 4-A1 (silo Z) have their markings swapped so they identify the opposite silo. Looks like the programmers themselves got confused!
-The final entrance to silo 4-H4 (silo W) on the fifth floor is marked with "Do not enter" symbols instead of the silo number.

Sorry if any of this is already known info.

A few more notes:

-Silo 4-H4 is accessible from three floors (four if you count the inaccessible walkway). If you restore the beta elevator, this will be by far the most "busy" silo.

-Consider that since GE:S allows jumping, people will be able to hop down from the walkways to other walkways below.

-The two inaccessible walkways need to either be removed or somehow connected to the rest of the map. The most obvious connection to Silo W is to extend the fourth floor hallway past the fuel room, turn it left, stairs down a little bit and done.

- SIlo X is more tricky. I see two options: either a direct connection from the surface (if you include it), OR from the exit area create a new hallway going left, then turn it right, a long flight of stairs down, right again and done (so basically you wrap around silo Y).

- Since people can hop down to the bottom of each silo, there should be some way up from there. In the original game, there is a small ladder connecting the bottom and the first-floor walkway in silo W. Maybe ladders like this in the other silos?
