    Cold Circuit

    Must use the RaceTracks gametype.

    Cold Circuit is a track inside the big main room of Cold Storage. This is so that it doesn't have to go into the narrow hallways. The track is basically a circuit following the walls of the room. It has a starting gate, jumps, a speed bump, grav lift assisted turns, penalty walk and viewing platforms. The whole track is also uncheatable and as wide as it can be.

    It is a sequel to my other Cold Storage track Cold Bank

    Full Description:
    The race starts in the middle of the part of the room opposite the light. There are 8 mongooses parked behind a low shield door. You will spawn facing your mongoose and will respawn on the ledges above. After 20 seconds some barricades spawn to let you over the shield door. There are 2 grav lifts and a shield door to help you turn left in the first bend. After the grav lifts there is a ramp leading up to the doorway. In the doorway there is a small jump and after that there is a speed bump made out of barricades. The main reason for this is so you don't do a lap too fast. The destination only move every 15 seconds. After the speed bump there is another grav lift assisted turn and then a small jump where the doorway to the flood tube is. Shield doors are positioned around this area to help you. You then go through the doorway leading back to the side you started in. The objective is in the doorway along with a grav lift and teleporters. This helps to make it uncheatable. After the objective is the final jump leading back down to the grav lift turn at the start. You then repeat.

    The teleporters on the objective lead into the flood tube room. As the penalty you must walk out by the tunnel leading up to the ledge above the mongooses. There is a reciever node and custom power up to show you the way out. The start also has starting lights along with the gate. Arrows made from reciever nodes and custom power ups are positioned around to track to show you where to go. There is also a teleporter near the start that leads to one of the 2 viewing playforms. They are on either side of the map. There is also a two way teleporter to transport between the viewing platforms.

    I prefer Cold Bank, but this looks quite good nonetheless. I'm finding Storage to be a little limited for forging, so I'm not surprised you made the Rally a little short.

    Sweet!
    First racetrack on Cold Storage and it looks like fun!
    I'll DL and race my friend xInsanityx. I love how you took Cold Storage's shape and made a race track going around it.
    5/5 Good Work

    cool looking race track i thought that it would be near impossible to make a race track at all inside CS but it can be done i guess. Well done and keep up the forging

    Cold Storage is pretty limited for Race maps so with those limitations you made a decent map. A foundry race track could have been way better though. 3/5

    race tracks on this map are iffy at best but it looks like this has potential. Keep it up, race maps are difficult at best and it looks like a nice track.

    Well I am a very important person at HaloTracks.

    Making a CS map isn't that hard. But you have to try make it have good flow which is difficult because the map is so small.

    Have you seriously seen better on Cold Storage?

    @Popsicle99: Of course it is small. It is on Cold Storage.
