Walkthrough

Map of Communication Base

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. In the red key room, press on the silver block from the west side to lower a box of shotgun shells and a megaarmor. (sector 37)

Design oddities

The teleporter trap from which monsters teleport near the house is designed in such a way that it can take a very long time for individual monsters to teleport. They will all teleport eventually, however.
