Did you run the patch file? The teleporters don't work if you don't. There's potential for a lot more patching and mirroring here.

Also, someone told me the patch wiki was broken, so I'm investigating that.

Yeah. Unfortunately, the last major wiki update caused some annoying formatting errors. I think that Malvineous is aware of this. But I don't know who feels responsible for the patching section in general... (I try to manage file updates and uploads)

more potential mirroring sounds exciting. what do you have in mind?

I had to fiddle with the teleports.

The teleports and the (capped) final sequence are the only reason this level pack needs a patch.

THANK YOUUU

Omg I was just being annoyed by that, trying to find some numbers. I think it broke like a year ago.

I used to largely do patches but it'd take a lot of doing to manually remove all the brackets now present. An automated solution or reversion would be nice.

Since the mod has a patch file, it should be possible to flip the graphics too, and things like which direction Keen walks through exits, truly graphically mirroring each level. It should be possible to mirror the ending sequence too.

If you wanted to get severe there's the possibility of mirroring the text itself, which would require a little more effort.
