1. If you claim a room, and there's a hallway leading to that room with no door (such as the T tester room in community pool overhaul), are you allowed to shoot anyone you see down that hallway? To what extent is this allowed? I'm assuming you can't claim the mini-boat on Roy the Ship and start shooting everyone you see.
You can only claim the room you're standing in. Anything outside of it you can't control.
2. Some people will block off a doorway because of lack of a door with props, and say if you move the props it's kos; Is this allowed?
No. Also door blocking is not allowed.
3. If you claim a room and someone is in that room with you: Do you have to warn them to go? CAN you warn them to get out or kos, or are they allowed to stay? Specifics!
If someone's in a room before you claim it, you can't force them to leave. Once they leave, however, they can't re-enter.
4. Can you claim not closed in spaces (such as one of the towers on the halo map)?
It has to be a room with clear boundaries. There doesn't have to be walls as long as you can tell what they mean easily.
5. Is it considered rdm to kill a detective and/or proven if they go into a claimed area? (Stupid question to ask, I know, but I commonly have whatever weapon out zoomed in to a certain spot, and it helps a lot if I can just free-fire whenever something enters my crosshair, instead of having to identify who it is first.)
Yes to detectives. Provens are still not allowed in claim rooms, however, dets can do whatever they want. I would advise you let in provens though simply because they're proven - why wouldn't you?
6. Since open door = kos is implied, if someone opens a door to your claimed area, can you hunt them down later in the map and kill them for it? Even just a few seconds after they do it; Can you walk out of your claimed area to kill them?
No. I personally don't even think opening the door is KOSable.
7. Can "crucial part of the map" be better defined please? I feel like this is a really iffy definition, because some would consider a T tester room a crucial part of the map. I've heard that any part of the map that leads somewhere can't be claimed, but is this limited to if it's the only way to get there? (Such as on cs_office, can you claim the room to the right of projector room?) I don't know... it's always caused me to hesitate when claiming anything that isn't a solid room with a door.
Unavoidable places such as crossways or hallways that you have to go through to get into another area of the map. It'd be unfair to trap someone in a certain area due to your claim.
