Steve's head nearly explodes as he imagines a 300k binary going out to 
every subscriber!  :)

Subject: BLOCKMAP Limits 

    I have headr that there is a limit on BLOCKMAP size. How can 
I determine if my BLOCKMAP is too big, and how can I reduce it 
if so? I am building a LARGE level, and I want to rid it of all bugs. 
Also, I am having a problem with my rising staircase. Every time I 
activate it, the bottom step's lower texture is tutti-frutti. None of 
the other steps are! What's wrong? Thanx for any help.

Something simple I have wished for in 5.21 - a way of running all the 
tests sequentially, rather than having to initiate each one individually.
