Description             : Deathmatch Quake II Level

Like my last map, Solid Fuel, I was aiming for a level sized for 1-on-1
games.  However, this time it ended up a little larger than I intended.
It is a touch on the large size for 2 players, but 3 should be enough to
see some good action.  It's large enough that it should take up to 6 or
so players comfortably.  8-10 players might even work, but that would be
pretty full.

As usual, I strongly recommend playing with "weapons stay" turned on.

========================================================================

* Running the Map *

Put Stellar.bsp into your maps directory (Quake2\baseq2\maps).  Run
Quake2 and bring down the console (by pressing ~).  At the console,
type "map stellar".  The game will start.  For multiplayer games, start
the game first.  Then bring down the console and enter the map command.
Each player must have the .bsp file in his/her map directory.

I've also included the .rtz file in this release.  If you don't have the
Eraser Bot, you can delete this file.  If you do have it, drop
stellar.rtz into your Quake2\eraser\routes directory before starting the
map with bots.

* Other Info *

At first glance it looks pretty dangerous to drop off the catwalks in
the center room.  But don't be fooled- the ventilation system will save
you.  Bots get stuck down there sometimes, as they always behave funny
with pushbrushes.  Unfortunately, I don't have a fix for that.  On the
other hand, the Eraser should usually be smart enough not to jump off in
the first place.  Yeah, I know that a big fan open to space below makes
no sense whatsoever, but hey- it looks cool (at least I think so).
