    I'm stuck on level 21, I warp to one of 2 areas, one has loads of
    monsters and needs a yellow key to get out.
    
    The other has a rocket launcher above a triangle with 4 switches.
    Pressing one switches raises some steps, but the very top step if too
    high. Pressing any other switch means the bottom step is too high.
    
    Anyone get me outta here?
    
    Cheers,

    	greg,

    	it drops for you.

     got here yesterday.  Any way I tried I couldn't get over the top step
    in that room. I tried pressing only one switch to raise the stairs - 
    not high enough at the top. Pressed the top stair etc no joy. Pressed
    two  switches/three/four  pressed all steps etc. No joy ?. Eventually
    had to IDCLIP 'cause I had cleared everything used every teleporter
    to no avail.  I had a good laugh with a Revenant ? - Tall bag 'o'
    Bones. - he appeared in the courtyard and everytime I used a teleporter
    he used it a split second before me and kept on zapping me on the way
    passed. All you could see was the remains of a green flash as he left
    when I arrived !!!, that and the screen flash red...
    Eventaually got him by running on and off the tp to catch him with his
    back to me in the starting room.

re: .4, stuck at triangular steps and 4 switches

Yeah, I was dorking around this weekend and ran into this one too.  I think
it's a bug in v1.7.  The way to tell for sure is to hack open the wad file
with an editor and check that sector for hooks to switches, etc... ...and give
it one if it doesn't have one already.  Either that or patch to v1.8/1.9 and
see if it's fixed.

     Mmmmm,    Tried that .. the stairs and the podium are too far apart
     or so it seemed to me.  Next time round I'll try it again.

    Hold down shift and run faster, you 'fly' further.
