Misc. Author Info : College students from Wimbledon. This map was
originally designed for deathmatch. Christopher
subsequently extended and retextured it, added
lighting effects, difficulty levels, some new
graphics, and published it on his web site. About
ten years later he dusted this map off again and
spent several months extensively revamping it.
Description : A sewage works in your hometown has fallen prey
to the demons that invaded planet Earth. Having
been parachuted into the heart of the complex,
it is your job to clean up. There is a
disgusting odour in the air, and it isn't just
the smell of unprocessed sewage putrefying in
the sunshine.
If you beat the demonic invaders then you will
have to find your own way out. Local human
survivors say that the main entrance has been
barricaded or damaged; the old sewer tunnels are
perilous but may be your only alternative.

Known Bugs : I spent days (weeks?) redesigning this map to
make it compatible with vanilla Doom (no visplane
overflows etc.) before realising it is still
impossible to save games without overrunning an
internal buffer. That would be impossible to
solve without deleting half of the map. Another
reason to use a modern source port is that most
fix a bug where monsters get stuck in doorways
(and there are a lot of doorways in this map).
This level makes extensive use of linedefs with
the 'block sounds' flag set. Sound is supposed to
travel across one such linedef but not a second.
However, a bug in Acorn Doom+ means that sounds
travel no further than the first such linedef.
That prevents enemies in more distant sectors
from being alerted to the player's presence.
The map should still be possible to complete.
