Pillowcase - Two teams. Four capture points. Quite a lot of snow.

I got sick of naming maps after people.

Pillowcase Shelter is a symmetrical control point map in which each team must capture the two center control points before advancing onto the enemy team's final point.

Special thanks:
Bec for doing most of the detailing on Point A (and for providing positive reinforcement)

I think 2 points domination will end pretty fast unless you have done some magic tricks

a2:

* added round timer

* capture points now unlock after 30 seconds (like in KOTH maps) (the control points still appear as unlocked on the HUD, not sure what to do about that atm but it's not a huge concern anyway)

* fixed rounds ending while one capture point is being contested

* fixed respawn times

* increased capture times from 20s to 25s

a7:

* removed the building between A and B (which sucks cos it was cool) and moved the two center points much closer

together; A and B are now essentially in the same place, rather than being in two separate locations

* the round timer once again resets every time a point is captured

* removed mid-points-lock-for-60-seconds mechanic

* reduced C capture times from 7s to 5s
