: 2 crashes so far: once when smashing a cryo capsule, once when using the 2nd
: trigger on the jetpack. I haven't tried to duplicate these, so they could
: just be random occurences.

The cryo pod crash was one that really puzzled me and I have no idea how to fix it. With all my testing, it never crashed with only 2 pods, but when I had the walls lined with them it would crash half the time. I guess that bug is still lurking :( I never had the jetpack crash even with all my flaming aliens. Hmmm.

: Are the mud creatures supposed to fire their projectiles from knee level?

The mud giants are supposed to kick the mud from their feet. It may have changed slightly since the physics model editor is rampant with bugs that change the location of projectiles. For a long time the troopers didn't even fire because the editor always screwed up the coordinates of the bullet origin.

: Is the faser really supposed to be unusable in vacuum? That doesn't make much
: sense.

This is one of those "D'oh!" situations. The marathon engine is cranky in weapon roles, and since there is no Fux! program for the original marathon that I am aware of, the faser is not vacuum enabled.

: There desperately needs to be an oxygen recharger somewhere on Omega, or near
: the start of the following vacuum level. My current save is on Omega with
: less than 25% oxygen, and it looks like I'm going to have to abandon it -
: no way to make it thru the arena on the next level, and no telling how
: much further beyond that to the next oxygen.

Thanks, that will be fixed.

: WAY too dark in places, especially underground on the planet. The terminal
: just before described it as "unseen by human eyes", and that
: remained true afterwards: I had to play those areas entirely in map mode,
: since nothing can actually be seen.

I'll look into this, it was supposed to be really dark but I could light it up some. I may have a few hours to work on it before it will have to pass into my brother's hands for good, and I'm not sure how much work he is willing to put into it. Thanks for your input.
