Secrets[edit]

  1. Straferun from the blue key platform north onto the edge, then head left and up to a hidden switch. Use it and head to the east side of the map on the high ledge, then head north and into the teleporter that is now available. This takes you to the west side, where you can find another switch to the south. After pressing that, head to the center of the map and to the block that has four torches. Lower it for the teleporter that leads to the secret exit. Note that if you pressed the switch behind the yellow bars at the southeast end, you will lower the walkway there, and will not be able to access the teleporter at the east side which is required for this secret. (sector 304)
  2. At the northwest end of the map, there is a plasma gun hidden at the east side, just north of the red key platform. (sector 345)
