Walkthrough[edit]

Map of Pumping Station
Letters in italics refer to marked spots on the map. Sector, thing, and linedef numbers in boldface are secrets which count toward the end-of-level tally.

Essentials[edit]

Open the door to your left (west) to face some zombies, then go up the western staircase to enter a room divided by a nukage trench. Press the button on the west wall to raise a bridge over the nukage, cross it then continue north into a room where you will see the red keycard on top of a pillar. Press the button on the west wall to lower the key, pick it up then go up the western staircase and turn right to see a red door. Go through that door and head down some steps to a nukage pool, kill the approaching imps and zombies then step across the nukage and go to the exit door in the north wall. Go through the door and climb some more steps, then turn left at the top to see one or more zombiemen guarding the exit switch.

Other points of interest[edit]

Secrets[edit]

  1. Open the orange wall east of the starting point to find a box of shotgun shells, a medikit, an armor, and a switch. (sector 34)
  2. The switch in secret #1 opens an area in the south-east room with three switches. Use the middle switch to lower the nearby platform with a partial invisibility. (sector 102)
  3. Exit the starting room and get on the southern lift. At the top, open the door to the west and take the lift here down to reach health and armor bonuses. You can also reach this secret by going into the hall west of the room outside the starting room and pressing on the section that looks different. (sector 44)
  4. Go into the aforementioned hall and press the switch on the left side to raise a bridge. Cross it and head north-west, opening the wall west of the terminal to find armor bonuses and a computer area map. (sector 71)
  5. Drop from the bridge to the nukage on the east side and flip the switch. Open the wall east of the switch to reach an outside area with a chainsaw, health bonuses, armor bonuses, and a switch to the north that opens up a central section. (sector 16)
  6. Drop from the bridge to the nukage on the west side and use the switch at the end, which opens up the north and south sides. The line of health and armor bonuses in the south side point to a wall which holds some ammo. (sector 113)
  7. In the exit room, use the gray wall at the north end and follow the hall to reach a backpack and a shotgun. (sector 246)
