Description		: My second Q2 map.  It's a CTF "mirror" map, as all of mine are 
			likely to be.  I'd appreciate your feedback, but
			keep in mind that "your map stinks" won't help me make better maps.
			Be sure to tell my WHY it stinks and what I could do better.


Additional Credits to:	id - without whom I would never have made a map.
			Lithium (for QOOLE, my editor).
			RUST: for his excellent and useful tutorial.
			Quake 2 workshop: the guys who monitor qworkshop@quake.com, also
				for great tutorials and E-Mail assistance.
			Ridah (Ryan Feltrin): author of the amazing ERASER BOT, which is
				how I test these maps out.
			Colin ("funkyassmime"): my son, whose patience and assistance in
				play testing is invaluable.
			Diane (my wife): A Q2 widow, who puts up with this absorbing 
				pastime of mine.

--------------------------------------------------------------
The Story:
--------------------------------------------------------------
CTF:

Our two friendly rivals have taken over what was once a large assembly building.  They
decided to add some more rooms, but ran into a small problem in the form of an underground
lake, which flooded the lowest levels.  Unfortunately, the guys at work on the additional
wiring had the panels wide open, and the electrical systems in this place have been somewhat 
flaky ever since.  Things still work, just not quite as predictably as they used to.

* Loading information *

To load this Q2 map:

Unzip the badwires.bsp in the archive to c:\quake2\baseq2\maps\
start Quake 2/CTF normally.  When the game starts, hit the tilde (~) key to bring
down the console and type:
"map badwires"

If you have the ERASER BOT, I've included my routes for this map.  It's easier to test
with BOTs, but I'd like to hear of human/human interactions as well.  The routes file
is badwires.rtz.  Unzip this to ERASER's ROUTES directory to use it.

For whatever, just email me at barry@icom.net.
