How do I put in a timer to countdown and when it ends, the Axis wins?

I know there's a timer in another map (forgot which one)... but how do I put it in mine?

I already tried searching this forum as well as mardymouse.

Thanks in advance! :)

Just an interm answer until someone with a clue answers, but what I'd do is just dump the entities out of a map that does something you like. For timers, dod_nmramelle_b1 comes to mind, that has a timer and when time is up, one side wins. This looks like the entity that does that in nmramelle.

{
"origin" "100 376 168.876"
"cpm_timer_team" "2"
"cpm_use_timer" "1"
"cpm_group" "a"
"cpm_timer_length" "480"
"classname" "dod_control_point_master"
"OnAlliesWin" "bomb1,Explode,,0,-1"
"OnAlliesWin" "bomb2,Explode,,2,-1"
"OnAlliesWin" "bomb3,Explode,,4,-1"
"OnAlliesWin" "bomb4,Explode,,6,-1"
}

In the dod_control_point_master entity you can set the timer, etc and all options in there.

Only problem is when the timer expires, if say Allies have capped one objective/flag and the other is uncapped....even though it says "axis win" it says "winning capture: <player name>" whoever capped the first flag for the allies.

Try it and you'll see what i mean!
