This has been, ah, umm, bugging me for ages, but what the sodding fuckomy is that bug in E3M4 when you drop through the hatch at the start, into the water, and lose 1-2 health??

Can anyone explain how the hell that works please!!

No bug, you're just too fast.

As soon as you start to drop you trigger the hatch over the water to start closing. If you wait and let it open fully you can drop in the water without losing health. If you drop in as soon as there is enough space to get through it closes on you doing small damage. :-)

My God, Shambler must be embarrassed. =P

I admit I didn't know that either, but hasn't he been playing Quake from.. like.. since he was born? :P optic would laugh at you! :P

We live, as we dream - alone.

Cool, thanks Morfy - I guess I never look around at what the hatch is doing...

Heh btw, when I was just checking that, I went into the next room, lured the Ogre out from that underwater elevator, and managed to get a Rotfish to ride up the elevator with me hehe =).

P.S. Ken, no I am not embarrassed, and no I am not a total asslord like yourself.
