You find yourself outside a marine research facility waiting for rescue.

The map is quite short and not particularly difficult to finish. The hardest part is dealing with the sharks, they're fast and can be tricky to hit.
As for the MOTD text, I think it might work better if it were displayed directly on the screen instead.
It's actually because it has too much text, which can cause game_text to crash and not display, so I put it in the MOTD instead
Oh! Ok! I need to learn more about this!
Thanks!
—Hi, Reuniclus-579!
I just wanted to mention something I've noticed in the last few maps you've ported!
The on-screen messages seem to appear and disappear very quickly. For example, in this map the message "Please see 'sc_fathom24_motd.txt' (Part 1)" only shows "Ple" before it disappears, so I have to check the console to read it. I noticed the same thing in Back to Xen.
Could this be something on my end, or is the message duration perhaps a bit too short? I was just wondering if anyone else has experienced the same issue.—
UPDATE: I figured it out. It seems to be a conflict on my end. It looks like the SCXPM plugin uses channel 1, and I think these maps do as well, which is probably causing the conflict. In BTX1 and BTX2, channel 4 is used instead. Now I just need to figure out how to fix it.
UPDATE 2: I fixed the problem!
Thanks!
incredibly confusing
