R.P.D. Map names?

I have usually no problems with east or west but everytime i'm playing on a RPD map, I can't say later on which map I was. I can only say which map I like or which I don't like, but in the lates mapvote I couldn't say which part to choose.

I have the problem with other maps too, but with RPD the most.

    So think of it this way:

    If you’re in the main hall facing away from the front exit gate that always spawns (so the upstairs library is to the left), whichever side has all of its rooms open (east or west) is the side of the map you’re on.

    If all the rooms on the upstairs library side are open and you can go further into that side of the map than where the library is, you’re playing on West.

    If the upstairs outside area is open on the right side, you’re playing on East. (The east side outside area downstairs is open on both variants.)

    if you've never played RE:2's remake or the original version of the RPD... then yeah. it might be hard to imagine the layout.

    basically... west has everything from the star's office to library open. you can tell because the stairs on the left side of the grand staircase will no longer be blocked. these rooms typically required diamond and clover keys to open in RE:2's remake. leon had exclusive access to them.

    whereas the east side is where you'll encounter the mayor's private museum collection and the extensive helicopter crashsite. you can tell this side is open when the room with the staircase next to the interrogation room can be navigated. claire used the heart key to gain access to these rooms. overall... fairly straightforward.

    the core is south gate, south east fenced in exterior, helicopter crash stairs, east offices, bathrooms, flooded corridor, interrogation room, janitor closet, projector room, grand staircase, service windows, west offices, vending, weapon storage, photography room, spiral staircase, library, unicorn room, mayors office, break room, statuary room, and interior hallways.

    the rest of the rooms are based off of which side is open.

    stars office, records, training, locker room and showers, laundry or whatever it's called are west side.

    east side is private collection, hidden elevator, east roof exterior, and the east staircase from interrogation to rooftop. i think. oh and the room where the dude in re2 gets his lower half ripped off. to be honest west rpd is more interesting.

    Thanks, played the most parts but could not tell which direction belongs to which map. I also couldn't tell which maps belong to re 1 or 2 either, so totally lost.
