--- Play Information ---

Game: UnrealTournament

Game modes: DeathMatch

Target PC: 300mhz+glide or better

--- Construction ---

Editor used: UnrealEd

Construction Time: 4 weeks (including 1 and a half weeks of beta testing!)

--- Known Bugs ---

Bots often double jump on the diagonal jump pads. Don't ask me why, I can't

duplicate it when I'm playing.

This isn't really a bug, but if you play in software mode you won't be able

to see the cool vortex/black hole effect or bright stars when looking out into

space. This has to do with software mode not allowing multiple transparent

sheets to be displayed (ie. one in front of the other).

On some rare occasions, the speed lift from Deck 1 to Deck 4 becomes black

for short periods of time. Maybe UT doesn't like fast lifts, I dunno.

--- Installation ---

Place this map in your UnrealTournament\Maps folder, put on the headphones,

grab a beer, and have fun. :)

--- Additional Notes --

I recommend this map to be played without music. The ambient sounds in

addition to weapons firing set the right mood for DM-Kinetica. However,

I gave it Course.umx to play for those who still like to rock. I myself

keep the music turned off in this one though.

When I considered this map "almost done", I spent another 4 days just on bot

pathing. Ouch! Well, I did learn quite a bit though, and now the bots will

kick your ass to Nali City and back. >:)
