* Description *

This is quite a large expansive level, with plenty of perches and ledges, and with a great deal of room
to move on all three axes. I fought seemingly endless battles with cluster portals and r_speeds while
making this monster. At one time, r_speeds peaked at nearly 13K in a couple of spots--now r_speeds are
below 9K in almost all areas, although there are a couple of spots just over 9K, and one quite difficult-to-
reach spot that breaks 10K. On low end systems, you may experience a bit of stuttering when the
level is loaded up with bots. One cluster (which contains most of the exterior portion of the map) has
1001 areas (down from 1700+ by extensive use of cluster portal brushes). The open, heavily vertical
nature of the map does not lend itself well to cluster subdivision. :-)

Game type              : FFA/Team DM
Player load            : 6-10+ (Although I've played it tourney and liked it--I'm a bit crazed.)
Respawn spots 	       : 10
Weapon load	       : 2 each of RG, RL, SG, LG, PG, one BFG
Item load	       : various shards/healths/ammo, Quad, Invisibility, Haste, 3 YA, RA, Med Kit 
New Graphics           : Yes. Afterbirthish goo in the chasm is a custom shader using id textures, as
			 is the water shader. The goo-flowing-through-pipes is a modified shader that
			 I got from someone on the Q3World Level Editing Forum a long time ago. Sorry,
			 whoever you are, I can't remember and didn't write it down. :-(  The skybox is
			 custom from the creative mind of Sock. Thanks Sock! The Q3 wall banner shader
			 is a modified form of the original banner shader from id.

All parts should go together without forcing.  You must remember that the parts you are reassembling were disassembled by you.  Therefore, if you can't get them together again, there must be a reason.  By all means, do not use a hammer.

The primary purpose of the DATA statement is to give names to constants; instead of referring to pi as 3.141592653589793 at every appearance, the variable PI can be given that value with a DATA statement . . . This also simplifies modifying the program, should the value of pi change.
