Normally ink on walls doesn't count towards the final scores in a Turf War. However, Sturgeon Shipyard has two pairs of retractible bridges that raise and lower throughout a match. Do these retractible bridges count towards the final score?

shipyard bridges being raised/lowered

Yes, ink on retractible bridges count. More specifically, only the "ground" of a bridge counts, regardless of whether the bridge has been raised or not.

inking the top

To test this I used recon to visit Sturgeon Shipyard in Turf War mode and carefully inked specific parts of the bridge to see how many points it gave me. After several attempts, I found inking the "ground" of a lowered bridge gave 34 points while the top of a raised bridge gave 0 points. I then inked the entire bridge to verify and once again got 34 points. The results were the same regardless of when the bridge was raised or lowered.

inking the sides

inking the entire bridge

  • I'd be surprised of the contrary, it's part of the map when closed, but nice discover for the top portion

  • @pinckerman I wasn't sure since one pair of bridges ends the round raised while the other pair ends the round lowered.
