In Response To: Re: Finished the last chapter (Blake37)

: Run coward: Cool map, but as the drones didn't shoot at me, I can't really
: comment on how it played, but it seems like it would've been cool. One
: little thing, wehn I was transported into space, I made an entering liqued
: noise, which shouldn't happen.

That's unfortunately necessary, as the player is teleported onto a tiny column surrounded by lower pits (all of it space textures of course), so there's a moment of floating in space before being teleported (rather than one teleport right after the other). The tiny column is filled with a liquid that pushes you off, because otherwise players would just stand there until they moved. I suppose it'd be OK to require players to try to move somewhere before teleporting, but I worried that players might go "OK I'm in space, now what?" and just stand there forever and never teleport.

An alternative that dawns on me now is to have them teleport in on a tiny LEDGE instead, which, being too small to stand on, they will immediately fall off of (being in effect pushed off by the neighboring wall. I'll try that...

Everything else added to the to-do list. Thanks again :)
