Walkthrough

Map of Waystation

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.

Secrets

1. Turn around and lower the vent at the start for a plasma gun and energy cells. (sector 203)
2. In the center of the map with two sets of steps, use the terminal north of them, move a bit east, and onto the platform that lowered. Ride up and open the door to get a rocket launcher and a box of rockets. (sector 212)
3. At the northeast end, there is a lift with two health bonuses. To the left of the lift, use the small UAC wall to find a passage to a plasma gun and an energy cell pack. (sector 301)
4. After opening the vent leading to the east side, use the southeast wall to find a room with medikits. (sector 698)
