The exit teleporter will lower prematurely. 2. The stairs will not build after D'sparil's death. This means players running the HTC on ZDoom can use the former issue to cheat and skip battling D'sparil. There is a secret alternate way that allows a player to get up said stairs which means the latter issue won't cause the player to get stuck if using ZDoom. * Copyright / Permissions * Authors MAY NOT use the contents of this file as a base for modification or reuse.
