Description:	This is level 1 of a 4 level episode. It's supposed to take place in a Space Station. I have spent plenty of time aligning and drawing new textures to get some good effects. Hope, you enjoy it ! Unfortunately the previous version SPACE22.WAD tended to lock up with DooM][ V. 1.9 (maybe because it was tested only with the DooM][ V.1.666-german). This should be fixed now. Any comments and suggestions welcome.
Credits:	my wife, for having so much patience.
Base:	New level from scratch
Build time:	hours, days, months ...... ages.
Editor(s) used:	DEUGcc (really good), Deutex (dito), Wacker, BSP, RMB ...
Bugs:	Some textures are not properly aligned, some flickering effects in the large cargo hall (Too many 2-sided linedefs, I guess)

Anonymous	charming little map from the past	x
Anonymous	This is interesting. It's an attempt to set Doom inside a space station, but a lot more effort has gone into it that most contemporary wads. There are air locks, a radiation store, a big weapons crate, and it's elaborate and charming. Unfortunately because this is 1995 it looks gash, but it's worth a few stars for effort.	x

* The story so far *

Solar system, 2144: Innumerous objects are orbiting earth, some of them are 
small as a pea, others are bigger than todays aircraft carriers. Some of them 
are still functional satellites or inhabitated stations, but most of these 
objects represent the cosmic scrapmetal of the new milennium. 
Doc Martin, a former chemist, who has been made redundant by a computer (it
was a positron aleph model with a spasmium bioprocessor) 20 years ago is 
seeking his fortune by searching the bigger metal chunks like satellites and 
abandoned space stations for silicon computing relicts of the 20th and 21st 
century, which are very valuable for collectors.
Today it's friday (do I have to say, that it is the 13th ?), and it was a lame
day so far, the metal detectors only found one object of interesting size, 
which proved to be a cobalt-enriched planetoid. But only 10 minutes ago, the
detectors showed a huge artefakt, resembling an orbit station as they were 
build between 2012 and 2024. Oh, dear - a huge station full of antiques, just waiting
to be collected by him - he simply can't believe it. This will be the last day
he has to work ! Oh, this is going to be easy: He switches on the tractor 
beam, takes a pistol(you never know !) and an antigravity box (for the 
goodies !) and enters the trans-matter ...........
- He doesn't know yet - but the next days he'll never forget in his life. 
  The evils he will encounter will follow him even in his worst nightmares.
