Secrets[edit]

  1. At the north end, head to the west side of the fence and look north to find a skull switch (you have to look from the west side, not directly north, or you will not see the switch). Shoot the switch to open a passage east leading to rockets and a megaarmor. (sector 349)
  2. Go to the rocket launcher and climb the broken wall near it. Head through the translucent wall to get a medikit, rockets, and boxes of rockets. (sector 241)
  3. On the ledge at the south end, press the switch behind the wall and head south to a teleporter to get a soul sphere. (sector 115)
