Note:The timer does not end the round on its own. You need a separate win condition such as the game_round_win entity.
Note:The setup timer does not act as a capture point capture inhibitor. Don't let players out of the spawn area before the setup time is over!
Note:The game instantiates this entity class automatically in some situations such as KOTH maps and during the waiting for player state.
Note:The tf_logic_koth entity creates two of these timers on map load named zz_red_koth_timer and zz_blue_koth_timer that controls both team timers.
Note:If you are trying to set up two timers for a King of the Hill map, see tf_logic_koth instead.

team_round_timer
is a point entity available in Team Fortress 2.
Entity description
Round Timer. Timer starts paused by default.




Keyvalues
- Name (targetname) <string>[ Edit ]
- The name that other entities refer to this entity by, via Inputs/Outputs or other keyvalues (e.g.
parentname
ortarget
).
Also displayed in Hammer's 2D views and Entity Report.See also: Generic Keyvalues, Inputs and Outputs available to all entities
- Start Disabled (StartDisabled) <boolean>
- Stay dormant until activated (with the
Enable
input).
- Max timer length (in seconds) ([todo internal name (i)]) <integer>
- Maximum timer length (0 = no max). This value is used to ensure the timer never goes above this value when SetTime and AddTime are used.
- Start paused ([todo internal name (i)]) <boolean>
- Should the timer start paused? (will need to send a Resume input to start the timer if this is set).
- Setup timer length (in seconds) ([todo internal name (i)]) <integer>
- Length of setup time before the round begins and the timer starts to countdown the normal time. (0 = no setup time) Setup time is run at the beginning of every round before the normal time begins.
- Reset time on round restart ([todo internal name (i)]) <boolean>
- Reset the timer time after a round restart. This is not the setup time, but the normal round time.
- Use countdown sounds ([todo internal name (i)]) <boolean>
- Let the timer automatically count down the end of a round.
- Show timer in the HUD ([todo internal name (i)]) <boolean>
- Note: You can only show one timer in the HUD at a time.

- Count Direction ([todo internal name (i)]) <choices>
- Use this to reverse the timer and have it count from 0 up to the timer length. Sounds and outputs still fire like normal. For example, on a count-up timer with a length of 90 seconds, when it reaches 60 the announcer will say '30 seconds remaining', however, the On30SecRemaining output will fire when the visual timer reaches 61.
