Bugs[edit]
At the beginning of the level, in the rock to the left of the opening there is a small cave hidden behind a texture, containing a computer area map. There is a small platform in front of it that is lower than the surrounding floor and has a few missing back textures, causing the hall of mirrors effect. This platform has tag 667 attached to it, so you need to kill the arachnotron in the next area for the platform to rise. You must be quick to get back to the platform. However, the platform rises above the floor of the cave and you can be blocked inside. The only way to prevent this is to grab the computer map and get out of the cave immediately.
