- I believe the 'teleport to another level' idea is basically what Hexen uses to
- get its non-linear gameplay (I've only played the Demo, and that was all
- deathmatch, so I didn't really get into the 'plot'...).

- Hmm... couldn't you just teleport to another bit of that level? (it doesn't have
- to be connected to the rest). I guess you would need it to be different from the
- standard teleporter because you wouldn't want the green light thing to appear
- as this would spoil the effect.
