Known Problems
===============
1) In a two player game there are two changes that need to be made.
Player one's Action 2 is activated by '\' instead of the intended 
key '/'.  This can be corrected by going first to the "Options" menu
then to the two players "Controls" menu.  Highlight Action 2 with the
arrow keys and press return.  Then press '\'.  Player two's inventory
key (Ctrl) does not respond.  Change the inventory key to '5'. This can
be done the same way but in the player 2, two players "Controls" menu.

2) Some of the keys listed in the Controls menu are not mapped properly.
Changing the default keys may cause control problems.  The changes 
mentioned in number 1 withstanding.

3) The Death option has been removed in the demonstration version.  
Selecting this option may impede game play.

If you have any problems, you can contact Interplay customer 
service at 714-553-6678 during normal business hours.
