=============================================================================                        
Description:            Fighting area in the middle with crossing channels,
                        surrounding rooms containing startpositions, 4-fold-
                        symmetric layout, perfectly aligned textures.
Specials:               Big arrows on the floor showing the position of your
                        opponent if he's hiding in the upper rooms. Problem:
                        if somebody in such a room is shot from the outside,
                        the arrow will not be deleted. :( On the other side
                        the shootist knows that his opponent in this room
                        is no longer active.  
                        At the start you have to choose one weapon out of the
                        following:
                        - Shotgun + Megasphere + Beserksphere       (200H/200A)
                        - Double-Shotgun + Bluesphere + Green Armor (200H/100A)
                        - Rocketlauncher + Bluesphere               (200H/---A)
                        - Plasmagun + Nothing                       (100H/---A)
                        Later you find the Chaingun and the Bfg. The Bfg is
                        easy reachable via Teleport but it's usability is near
                        zero because the opponents can quickly hide in the
                        channel system.

Permissions:            You may use SWIRL as a base to build 
                        additional PWADs if you give credit where credit 
                        is due. Of course, you must distribute SWIRL.
                        
Where to get SWIRL:     ftp.cdrom.com and mirrors

Known problems:         Rockets and Plasma/Bfg shots disappear without explosion
                        when hitting the wall below the windows. I don't know a
                        solution for that except removing the windows. But that
                        is senseless. If somebody knows how to solve this, send
                        me an email.
