Essentials[edit]
Other points of interest[edit]
The secret exit is located to the west of the normal exit, and is accessed from the central building via a yellow door (there is a yellow key inside the building).
Secrets[edit]
There are four broken sectors that are marked as secret: sector 233, sector 293, sector 301, and sector 316. None appear in the level, so the maximum obtainable secret percentage is 0%.
Bugs[edit]
None of the secret sectors have any sidedefs, making them not appear in the level, making it impossible to complete the level with all secrets.

Speedrunning[edit]
As the secrets in this map can not be activated without cheating (see secrets), a NM100S run for this map is redundant. Other categories may ignore the secret requirement in this case.

During development, this level became so large that it was split in two, the other part being E3M1: Bonus Level.
