Known Bugs/non-bugs	- When running GL Quake ONLY: 
                          A couple full-bright switches may be hard to 
                          see but are in obvious locations.  You will 
			  also miss the full effect of the light sabers 
			  of the 'Space Knights'.
			- Because I have near the maximum EDICTS for
                          regular Quake I couldn't cover all the stars
			  with safety-glass, therefore it's possible to 
                          shoot into 'space' in places.
			- See before playing below.
			  
Distribution  		: This level may be electronically distributed 
			  only if starship.txt is included and at NO 
CHARGE to the recipient, and may not be used or modified in any way 
without written permission from the author. I would also like to 
request anyone who reviews and/or lists "STARSHIP" at their site to 
kindly inform me that they have done so. Thanks:)

================================================================
****************  BEFORE PLAYING PLEASE TAKE NOTE: *************

If you save your game in the 'low gravity' environment of the 'plasma 
containment field', you will be at 'regular gravity' if you return to 
that saved game. If that happens, get to the floor area just below the 
switch on the central metal post, and the gravity will change back to
low... Or if you can get back to the tube train and ride it's circuit 
the gravity will also change as appropriate.

================================================================
*** HOW TO RUN "STARSHIP" *** (with the reg. version of Quake)
	- you 'may' have to allocate 16 megs to Quake. Info on changing
          that is in your Quake>techinfo.txt or see below.
	

As per following diagram, create a directory in Quake parallel to Id1 
named 'space' and extract the pak0.pak contained in 'starship.zip' 
directly into the space directory. 
* DO NOT extract into the id1 directory *


C:\QUAKE
   |
   +--- ID1
   |     |
   |     +--- MAPS
   |
   +--- SPACE---pak0.pak 
   |    

Start quake with the parameter: QUAKE -game space

THEN...pull down the console	(by using the ~ tilde key)
	
	]skill 0          <--- or 1, or 2  [not 3, see above] 
	]map starship

**Win95 EXAMPLE (also allocates 16 megs to quake): 
Quake properties>Program>Cmd Line:
C:\QUAKE\QUAKE.EXE -winmem 16 -game space

NOTE: I am unfamiliar with Quake commands when running directly
from DOS...most major SP Review sites have such info.

+++ SPOILER WARNING - READ NO FURTHER IF YOU DON'T WANT HINTS +++

*About the only secret that may be hard to find access to is the
secret area under the long walkway [1 floor above start area]. It 
can be seen through a slot in the elevator wall as you take the 
elevator from the 3rd to 2nd floor. Directly in the center of the 
walkway and directly above the secret spoot is a red shootable 
switch. Shoot it and a door will open in the walkway floor.

*There is also a secret spot in the dark above the elevator 
mentioned above. Get on top of the elevator by 'calling' it from 
the 2nd floor.

*Some secrets are hidden behind shootable vents.
