Heathcote Junction Source Map: version 1

pullchart and hl2 screensht
pullchart and screenshot of frame in Half-Life 2


welcome to my attempt to recreate interlocking of some kind in the source engine.
also welcome to Heathcote Junction, as it was from around 1941 to until the branch closed in 1968.
the pullchart shown is from after the box was moved in 1961, to make way for the standard guage.

intsructions:
1: download the map here (.bsp, 222KB)
2: place this file in %\steamapps\common\Half-Life 2\hl2\maps\
3: launch Half-Life 2, go to console (~) and type "map hjunc"
4: press 'E' on the levers to operate. enjoy

notes:
- works in Half-Life 2, and in Garry's Mod. may work in other source games
- red levers are signal, black are points, blue are lockbars, white are spare
- no signals or track yet, just the levers and interlocking
- ensure your mouse is on the lever you wish to pull
- only pull one lever at a time, moving more than one may lock up a lever permanently

eventual plan is to replicate heathcote junction station and track, and also simulate staff & ticket handling and operation of double line block instruments.
