PL Traintower A10

[SuperTanker]

SuperTanker submitted a new resource:

Traintower - An oversized cargo storage facility and train junction, that which RED has to stop BLU from bombing.

My first map ever, so I don't have high hopes for how well this plays lol. Please comment any clipping issues, exploits, and problematic play spaces when found, it really, REALLY would help me. Preferably with coordinates if possible.

Traintower A3 Update

Traintower A3 Changelog

BLU CART/STARTING AREA
-Added grate doors in the tunnel that goes over the cart track, on the level of the elevated rail. Hoping this'll help define frontlines a little bit better and block players from both teams from flanking too much.

AREA IN FRONT/AROUND CAP POINT A
-Changed the main exit for RED team coming out of their spawn. Clipped off the original catwalk as it now serves as a setpeice, and made the previous right-side doors the main exit/entrance to and...

Traintower A5

Traintower A5 Changelog

GENERAL CHANGES
-Made setup time longer so RED has more time to properly set up.
-Added various signboards around the map to point the right way for both teams. These signs will disappear after certain objectives being captured.

Traintower A6

MAJOR CHANGES

-BOTH problematic playspaces (Area in between BLU first spawn and A, and the area leading up to the final point) have been majorly changed. Will most likely need further modification, so nothing is permanent for now.
