Description
===========

After having reconstructed my sphere structure by enlarging it slightly and
making the inner sphere more solid, I built this level using the main rooms
from Small Rumble In The Box, using a different (hopefully better) layout and
decreasing the size of the pond, which had proven so big that it was rather a
matter of accident finding and destroying an opponent there (if you were lucky,
you would destroy him before he even noticed you were there. If you were
unlucky, that would be just what would happen to you ...).


Weapons
=======

Since you can prohibit any power up from multi player games, I added lots of
(almost) everything to the level.  Since I think that some weapons are rather
boring, you will NOT find every weapon in this level. (Just my opinion. But
who would want concussion missiles if he can have mercuries - at least not
me. ;-))


Known Problems
==============

Sometimes, some walls might not be displayed at certain angles of view. This
might happen especially with the pillars in The Pond. You can't shoot or fly
through such textures though. I believe this is a problem of Descent's
graphics engine (too many optimizations). I think one can live with that.
You will hardly notice most of these effects when in  play anyway.


So far. The following section is because this level is for everybody's fun
and not for somebody to make money with my work. Don't take it personal.
