For example the very well known expression ' An Apple a Day Keeps the Doctor Away', is not the full phrase... — Applejack publicity blurb

Applejack is a community-created Capture the Flag map added in the Summer 2024 Update. It is made of two opposing farming complexes comprised of barns, sheds, and housing surrounded by apple orchards, each for the RED and BLU team respectively. A large population of harmless chickens also inhabit the area.
Applejack was contributed to the Steam Workshop.
Locations
- Spawn Room: a square room with two exits and a resupply cabinet. The right exit leads almost straight to the Intelligence room.
- Spawn Yard: the area immediately outside the spawn room.
- Intel Room: a small room with two main doors on opposite sides. A small portion of the room has a higher floor and is partially covered by some computers, which also cover a third, smaller door facing the spawn.
- Intel Yard: an open area next to the Intelligence room with a large ammo box and a medium health kit on a wooden catwalk. Most classes need to leave through the Intelligence room, but open windows of the team's building can be accessed through jumping techniques.
- Team Building: each team has a massive building separating their spawn and Intelligence rooms from the center of the map.
- Garage: the room with a truck full of apples.
- Balcony: a balcony overlooking the center of the map.
- Waste Area: the lowest section of the team building's interior, containing radioactive and biohazardous barrels. Part of the dirt ground is under very shallow water.
- Main Battlements: the center of the map. A small storage building sits in the middle, with crates on either side that players can climb to get on top of it.

Trivia
- In a building on the RED side near the gate blocked by some crates, a barrel, and an arrow sign, is a Pocket Purrer wearing a Last Straw in a bucket.
- Between the RED spawn and the Intelligence, a tree can be seen out of bounds with a hand-drawn missing poster for a "missing Pootis". This is a reference to the "Lil Pootis" animated series by YouTuber Quazies, where the RED Scout in that series owns a pet "Pootis" (a bird version of Heavy).[1]
