Mega 999 time2quake

PMega_999 time2quake or mega_999 example is a Single Player and Multiplayer level. This level is designed to showcase a mapping trick whereby the player can go through a chamber and come out with 999 health that doesn't degrade. The trigger only occurs once.

While Bini Parkhurst disliked overpowered health and Weapons, he felt this could be useful if used judiciously.

As Bini Parkhurst was busy working on the revision, which was done due to Armor breaking the chamber, he did not have time to document how this trick was done. He planned a later release with a .MAP file; it is unknown if the level was ever fully explained.

There was a slight update to this level released on the same day, mega_999 example Revision 1. The main difference between the two versions is that the revision fixed a bug whereby a player with Armor could break the chamber. To showcase this feature, two Red Armors and a Green Armor were added to the level.

Walkthrough
As you spawn into the room, a message will be displayed that this is "mega_999 health example". After two seconds, another message will replace it saying "by bini at www.time2quake.com". Behind you is a row of 7 Shamblers. Ignore them and instead head to your right to collect the Green Armor, Rockets and Grenade Launcher. Turn left, then walk down the row to collect the Rocket Launcher, Super Nailgun, Nails, 4 Cells, and a Thunderbolt. Ignore the Red Armor to your left and instead turn around once more, then head to the middle of the room. Turn left into a doorway. To survive the chamber, the player must have at least 50 health. Turn around and attack the 7 Shamblers in front of you, doing as much damage as you can. Before you hit 50 health (since the lightning attack will likely cause more than 50 damage, it is ideal to step back before the Shamblers finish their attack), however, step back into the Teleporter.

Doing this will result in you collecting the two 100 Health. Upon doing this, the player will hit an invisible Teleporter that takes them within .2 seconds to a box above the alcove. This box contains a Red Armor and another Teleporter that sends the player to a third box within .1 seconds. The third box appears to be a skybox; landing here causes the player to take 444 damage. You will then receive a message, stating "those who make it here alive". A second message will continue the statement, "are reborn with the life of ten". After a few more seconds, you will reappear in the Shambler room with 999 health (given via a trigger with a negative amount of health). Collect the Red Armor as soon as you can, plus head to the far side to collect the 2 Cells and Nails. Hug the Shamblers, blocking as much of their line of sight as possible, then kill all 7 Shamblers.
