Turbine Center is a community-created Capture the Flag map. It is set at night in a shopping center that has been decorated for Christmas: a giant tree, large presents, and a train carrying gifts and toys decorate the central area, and the corridors and rooms are adorned with garlands, baubles, and assorted seasonal decorations.
Turbine Center was contributed to the Steam Workshop.
Contents
Locations
Tree Room
- Tree Room: The main area that links RED and BLU bases. It is a large room with a huge Christmas tree the middle and some large decorative presents on either side. Two staircases near the base exits lead up to a balcony spanning the width of the opposite side of the room, leading to the other team's vents. To the side of the base, exits are the main hallway, leading to the Intelligence room. The presents provide some cover for players, even from people standing on the balconies. The train going around the tree can be jumped on, however, touching the catcher from any angle results in instant death.
- Stores: Small alcove at the foot of and under each staircase. The ones at the foot contain a medium health kit, while the ones under contain a medium ammo pack.
- Balcony: A balcony that spans the width of the room connects each team's vents to the Tree Room. Most of the floor of the room can be seen from the balconies, making them an ideal location for Snipers.
- Balcony Observation Room: A small windowed, doorless room lies at the center of the balcony. It opens on both sides to the rest of the balcony. The room provides some cover from players attacking from the floor of the Tree Room. The outside of the room can be used to place sticky traps.
Intelligence room
- Intelligence Room: The Intelligence room is a rectangular room with railings partially bordering the lower area. The Intelligence is located in the corner of the room.
- Entrances: There are three entrances to the Intelligence room.
- A set of stairs leads down from spawn to the Intelligence room.
- Players can drop through a hole in the ceiling, connecting from the vent system.
- Two large entrances connect to the main hallway that connects to the Tree Room.
Main Hallway
- Main Hallway: A hallway connects the Tree Room to the Intelligence room. The hallway makes two right-angle turns, providing some cover for players and the opportunity to set up sticky traps and Sentry nests. The RED side has a fire extinguisher that extinguishes burning players who approach it.[1]
- Raised Platform: There is a raised platform along the corridor that leads directly into the Intelligence room with a medium health kit and ammot pack. A flight of stairs allows players to easily reach it, as the platform is too high to jump on top of normally. A potted plant next to the platform can be jumped on and then crouch-jumped off in order to get on top (the cigarettes vending machine can be used instead for a running start and a regular jump too), but it is located right next to the entrances to the Intelligence room, making platform access dangerous for enemy players.
Resupply and Vents
- Resupply Area: The resupply room is L-shaped, and the hallway it leads out to is L-shaped as well. One end of the hallway leads to a staircase that descends to the Tree Room, and the other end of the hallway leads to a staircase that descends to the Intelligence room.
- Vent Access: The vent system can be reached at the top of the stairs leading to the Tree Room.
- Vents: Small vent tunnels provide passages from the Tree Room to the resupply areas and to the Intelligence room through a hole in the ceiling of the room. The Vents are broken into two sections, joining at the Resupply Area entrance. A small side room with a medium ammo pack can be found near the Tree Room.
