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.

Essentials[edit]

The level starts in a small room with a plasma rifle. Go straight ahead to the western part of the level, then turn right and climb the stairs. Head left, where you will find a crate and green armor. Continue down the corridor until you reach the first switch. Move forward, be careful of the pit ahead, and go right toward a few crates and a rapid fire trooper. Turn right again, heading west, until you reach an elevator next to a energy cell pack.

Proceed through the corridor and cross a small bridge over a deadly pit, then reach the second switch. Follow the One Way sign and go left toward the 30-second door. Take the elevator up and proceed to the spaceship at the end of the corridor, which serves as the level's exit.

Other points of interest[edit]

This level features an alternate way to reach the 30-second door. When you reach the first switch, pay attention to the railing used as a fake wall. Cross over the left part of the fake wall to drop into a safe zone. From there, follow the ledges to reach a ventilation shaft, which leads to a straight corridor with an energy cell pack.

After passing through the corridor, climb the large staircase and continue straight south to reach the 30-second door.

Secrets[edit]

  1. In the section near the south end with steps and a bridge, get on the railing just south of the steps and jump into the alcove to get a computer area map. (sector 3415)
