prop_door_rotating_checkpoint is a point entity available in Left 4 Dead series. It is a special variant of prop_door_rotating for checkpoint doors in the world.

It's used by info_changelevel to decide when to start the transition to the next map when all survivors stand inside. If the door is closed and all survivors are inside properly set-up checkpoint transition start. If the door is not present transition starts immediately as all survivors enter.

In versus starting checkpoint door cannot be closed and is opened automatically if survivors haven't opened it in versus_force_start_time seconds.
