tf_logic_cp_timer is a point entity available in Team Fortress 2. It runs a timeout timer for a control point and adds itself to the HUD for that point. This entity is used for DeGroot Keep's final point.

Bug*:When The assigned control point is captured, the logic tied to OnCountdownStart will be ran extremely quickly, roughly every 20 ticks. Make sure all logic tied to this entities outputs are controlled by logic_relays, as the logic inside those will not be triggered.
