Just a few notes from the author of this map.  Me Joe Hall!.  :)  

Well, where do I start?  I made this map with UnrealEd 2.0.  This map has a new 
weapon in it that I scripted just for it called the Ghandinator.  I scripted 
this new weapon so that the bots would use it effectively enough to make it a 
real challenge to stay alive in single player games!.  The original weapon was 
written by Britton Wesley and I call it version 1.  I completely re-scripted it 
to fix bugs and give it a lot of functionality that it didn't have before and I 
call it version 2.  The one in this map is now at version 3 upon being re-
scripted yet again.  There is credit to Britton Wesley in the script for the 
Ghandinator so be sure to read it if you're a map builder. I also changed the 
minigun to have 150 ammo when first picked up, and the shock rifle now holds 100 
ammo, and has 50 ammo upon pickup. Also the shock ammo gives 25 rounds now 
instead of only 10.  So....if there is something that you don't like about this 
map or maybe you have some good ideas drop me a note on the usenet at
alt.games.unreal.tournament with the subject <PING JHall>.  :-)  This map also 
has bot support but I couldn't get them to use their translocators to get the 
shield belt.  They always just walk straight toward it and trigger the anti 
gravity. Don't be afraid to jump off the top floor into the big central gravity 
chamber as I have limited the terminal velocity and you will not get hurt by 
hitting the ground.  However beware of the elevator shafts as you will most 
likely die if the elevator is at the bottom and you jump or get knocked off 
in it!.


I will give some hints here as to the secrets:  The shield belt is no secret
since it's right in the center of the map out in the open BUT (<- and that's
a very big BUT) getting to it is the hard part since there is a trigger that
produces anti-gravity when touched and when you get near the shield belt you
touch the trigger!.  There are Keg-O-Health items all over the ceiling and 
are relatively easy to obtain.  There is a secret teleporter to the shield
belt somewhere but I won't say exactly where except to "use number 1".
Beware of number 2 though as this will give you a free ride back to Earth
the hard way!!!.  You can also get the shield belt very easily using the 
translocator but I added the secret teleporter for those that don't like
to use the translocator.  There are also two Gravity Test Labs with switches
in them to make the secrets easier to get to.  They are identified with signs
so you can't miss them.  There is also the Redeemer and the Enhanced shock rifle
that are hidden in the map as well.  You can use anything you want out of this 
map except the textures!  If you want to use the textures just put my name 
"Joe 'Professor' Hall made some of the textures in my map" in your readme 
file and you'll be fine!  :-)  However I would prefer that you didn't use
this map as a base for your own map.  Build your own map!  I have faith in
you!  You can do it!.  :-)  

Installation:
Unzip, place the DM-GravityZone.unr file in your UT\Maps folder and select it
from either the tournament death match or tournament team game menus.  It 
will be listed as DM-GravityZone.  This file that you are reading now can go
in your UT\Help folder, or the recycle bin, whichever you prefer.


Storyline:
For those of you that like storylines, this is the story of the Lorn Gravity 
Research Base in orbit around the Earth.  The rich and powerful Liandry got 
heavily involved in deep space mining in the year 2285 with the failure of one 
of his industries known as the "Cinder Foundry".  The Cinder Foundry made cinder 
blocks as building materials for buildings.   The Cinder Foundry did not fare 
very well as there was not much need for cinder blocks and finally went defunct 
in 2284 due mostly to more competitive building materials and the industries 
that made them.  Liandry decided that deep space mining of rare mineral ores was 
where the profit was and started buying up everything to do with deep space 
mining including buying the Lorn Gravity Research Base that is now in orbit 
around the Earth in 2286.  For five years the Lorn Base served Liandry well in 
providing much needed and sought after knowledge of gravity and its 
characteristics to make the mining of rare deep space ores cheaper and easier. 
In 2291 the Lorn Base was converted into an arena for the tournament
by Liandry and all the equipment inside is still fully functional.  The tournament
has been hosted over the years at the Lorn Base and it is sometimes still used
intermittently for gravity characteristic research.  The year now is 2245 and 
the tournament is about to begin at the Lorn Gravity Research Base so gear up,
try not to be killed too early, and above all have fun!.  :-)
