I said I would try this and well here goes my crude attempt at it. This is literally just z-level 1 of Box copypasted into a 255x255 map, removing all the other z-levels to speed up loading times. Same premise as #10688 but a compromise between loading times and full department functionality if you need to test something like Atmos.
How fast is it?
teststation: ~1:43 to compile, Compile Failure secs to start up, practically instantaneous post-joining test_box: ~1:47 to compile, Controversial secs to start up, about 6 secs post-join before being able to spawn box: ~1:51 to compile, ~1:05 to start up, about 28 secs post-join before being able to spawn
Not tested a lot but that's what the test station is for!
