About This Package
From the original creator of ttt_rooftops and its later evolution ttt_rooftops_2016 comes the next generation of Rooftops for Source 2.
(Almost in time for the 10-year anniversary of ttt_rooftops_2016.)
Created by youmenow1.
Special thanks to the Three Thieves team and community for their support and feedback.

EARLY RELEASE
Rooftops 2026 is a playable early release, with ongoing improvements to gameplay, visuals, and features planned over the coming months. Content is subject to change.
The goal of Rooftops 2026 is to modernize and build upon on the aspects that made the original Rooftops so iconic. Rooftops 2026 aims to utilize the new possibilities afforded by Source 2 to expand upon the vertigo-inducing verticality, movement-focused gameplay, and emergent environmental interactions that allow players to transform the map as each round unfolds, creating the unpredictable moments and player stories that make TTT so memorable.
Feedback is welcome and helps shape future updates.

DEVELOPER NOTE
If you're developing a game using Rooftops 2026, feel free to contact me about feedback, requests or any other queries regarding the map and your game.
LADDER COMPATIBILITY
Unfortunately ladders do not work outside of TTT due to a lack of official implementation. Ladders in Rooftops 2026 simply utilize the tools texture sbox/core/materials/tools/toolsinvisibleladder.vmat_c that comes with stock S&box. Implementing ladder functionality around that particular material would be recommended for compatibility with not only Rooftops but the broader TTT map catalogue.
