: You didn't get the 2nd message on the first terminal? Weird. I definitely got
: it back in 1995 since I added the text for it to the Story page. At least
: I hope I didn't make it up! ;-)

If you mean the first terminal you come to, I got the second message after I had cleared out the final room across the lava.

: A fun Greg K level. You can create mayhem in the first large room by
: attracting the compilers, projectile fighters and tanks all into the same
: area. Watch those sparks fly. Greg also included a series of high level
: walkways around a large part of the map. Adds a little bit of mystery to
: the level.

One thing I noticed different about this level compared with the same level in M2 is that the cyborgs are not friendly to each other. They attack each other if hit by another cyborg grenade. If I recall, the grenade cyborgs are friends with each other in M2.

: In the full game, Greg added a secret rocket launcher and flame thrower at
: the start. You had to be Todd 'Mr. Hang Time' Keating to get them though.

I have gotten on top of that ledge by letting the projectile fighters bolts and the compiler bolts knock me up there. Unfortunately, it's not easy to reproduce. While I do not have a film of it, I believe Sidoh (Jeffrey Lindquist) has one on the vidmaster film page.
