Rockford Station - Survival Map

Description
Turning ON the Game Instructor (Options -> Multiplayer) is RECOMMENDED - or just read the description.

Established in 1912, the "Rockford Station" served the citizens of Rockford City and the passengers on the Crescent transit line, connecting New York with New Orleans. With the outbreak of the Green Flu, it began serving CEDA, and later the U.S. Army instead, as a hub and an evacuation center. Once the infected had breached the station, however, the soldiers retreated, leaving what was left of the local population to fend for themselves - most evident in their military cargo trains no longer hitting the breaks at the station's platforms.

A Survival map that puts you against waves of zombies, and speeding trains, within the perimeters of an Amtrak train station located in the suburbs of Rockford City - loosely based on the real-life train station in Hattiesburg, Mississippi.

The map features:
  • Trains! (Who would've guessed!?)
    - The military might be gone, but their cargo trains still make the rounds! Two trains periodically drive through the station at full throttle in both directions, plowing through everything in their path, infected and Survivors alike! Keep an eye out for the light signals above the tracks - yellow lights warn that a train will pass soon, and red lights indicate a train has already spawned in!
  • Protection from the trains for Bots!
    - Don't worry about your Survivor Bots walking straight onto an oncoming train - the map features a system that will, 99% of the time, keep the bots from being turned into fine paste on the tracks, as long as they aren't pinned, stunned or dominated by something.
  • Plenty of supplies and viable spots!
    - Ever got tired of official Survival maps that contain like one or two spots viable for holding out? Here you have plenty - each packed with a few essentials, such as an ammo pile, a set of grenades, gas cans, and so on. Some also contain Tier 3 weapons and defibrillators.

Released an update that *hopefully* improves performance, although I wouldn't get my hopes up - the middle point of the map will forever remain the biggest resource drain because of the layout and openness of the space there.
