Does a map with bullet peneration modified can get approval?

Should I write it here as well? But the title says it all.
Ok then. Does a map with bullet peneration modified can get approval?
It's not written on the approval guide but I want to make sure

i can only say that maps with 0 bullet penetration cannot be approved because of players' connection desynchranization

maps with too high penetration cannot be approved too

Maps with weapons modified in any way are not allowed for approval, at least far as I am aware of.

Bullet peneration is gameplay category if I am not wrong. Not gun

Btw I saw exceptions.
For example;
It's said "Walls should not float in mid-air (must be connected with rest of the world with help of background objects)". I know an approved map which has walls floating in mid-air without connection.
And it's also said "Weapons m4a1, glock, virus gun are not parts of approvable gameplay. Same about guns customized by triggers" but there's an approved map with modified guns in it.
These rules confuse me.

Most maps with floating walls are 2011 era maps, back when that rule likely wasn't a thing. They obviously haven't been updated to current standards. (and honestly most of them should be outright removed, but meh)

Also, whats the approved map with modified guns? It is possible Eric let this map be an exception.

I do agree with you, the rules are confusing and inconsistent, and they're also outdated. However, these are Eric's rules, not the staff team's, as we do not approve maps, Eric does. It's really up to him to update them.
