Editor(s) used          : BSP 0.86b by Yahn Bernier.I love all the features it's got.

Bugs/problems           : A couple of times when testing monsters managed to get through apparently

                          solid walls. Couldn't reproduce it consistently.

                          A bit of slowdown in some areas caused by the 'first level' mistake of long views 

                          (but it's still faster than QuakeII!)
