Secrets

 * 1) At the northeast part of the ring, look at the south wall and locate a switch that is not lit. Use it to open the alcoves, where one of them has a soul sphere. (sector 4048)
 * 2) After a while has passed while in the blue key area, head south and west into the open hall. Lower the west wall and ride up to get the invulnerability. (sector 81)
 * 3) At the north end of the star, when you open up the corner rooms, enter the northeast room, go to the switch, and use the wall next to it to get partial invisibility, a megaarmor, and medikits. (sector 2157)
 * 4) Enter the south corridors at the southwest end of the star, then head west to the hall with alcoves that contain wires. The second one from the left has an opening with a box of ammo, a box of rockets, and a backpack. (sector 3539)
 * 5) At the southeast part of the star, when the wall past the leftmost crusher hall opens, go there and head north. Use the metal wall to lower it and get a berserk pack. (sector 3146)

Bugs
A multiplayer-only shotgun (Thing 1679) and three ditto tall techno pillars (1631 through 1633) have no flags set for any of the three difficulty classes, so they do not actually appear in the level.
