Points of Interest      : The exit is NOT cooperative, but it is hidden,
                          There is a clue provided as to its location.

                          The central area in the combat zone (with metal
                          texture on the outside and a red pillar in the
                          center) is a sniper area. If you run inside and
                          up to the red pillar the doors will close off
                          leaving you secure and able to fire out of the
                          four slots. (Mind you, people can fire in as well)
                          Hitting the 'use' key against the red pillar will
                          lower it to reveal a teleporter back to the area
                          in which you started.
                          
                          NOTE: If the sniper area gets closed off with no
                          one inside of it to go thru the teleporter, it
                          will not reopen until someone triggers the line
                          to open it. This line is located in the center
                          platform where all the player starts are also
                          located (the same platform you teleport to when
                          you teleport from the sniper hole). So if it gets
                          closed off, either use a Chaos Device and fly up
                          to trigger it, wait until someone dies and appears
                          on that particular platform, or just live without
                          it, although you will eventually run out of ammo.
