Description
A very, very old HL2DM map, and one of my all-time favorites.

This map was created by Orion sometime early 2005 or earlier, and it's pretty hard to find on the internet, especially with all textures intact.
So in the interest of map preservation I fixed up a small bug with one of the materials using a no-longer-working shader (Decal) and packaged it all into a workshop-suitable form.

Map contains many different gizmos and gadgets, including gravity gun controlled flying platforms (pull red cubes around to guide their movement), player-launching cannons, movable teleport cubes, a deadly spinning toy that comes in two parts (use the red part to start it up) and others.
You can use a button in the small booth to de-power all flying machines so they come crashing down.
There's also a nasty trap in central tower should you shoot the warning sign...

Originally, this map was made for HL2DM so a weapon-respawning addon is recommended but not required.

What follows below is the original txt file that was distributed with the map.
You can find this file in addon's data_static folder.

Odds aren't looking good. HL2DM was always a niche game (more popular than DoDS, though), plus twenty years is a long time.
I know that Orion has vanished circa 2010, and quite abruptly, without ever (officially) releasing a couple of his maps that were in tentative circulation. I managed to get my hands on some of them and I might upload them if there's enough interest.

Y'know, would any of the people mentioned in the Special Thanks even be on the web anymore? There's a, slim chance atleast one of these people are still active somewhere.
