Secrets

1. Go up to the red door and go to the column to the south. Use the button on the east side of the column to lower the south wall. Take the teleporter to get a BFG9000, energy cell packs, and an invulnerability (megasphere on Ultra-Violence or higher) in an arena of cyberdemons. (sector 951)
2. Open the yellow door leading to the south end and go west of the floating skull rock. Use a wall to the north to find a megasphere. (sector 259)
