<div class="IPBDescription">1000 units?</div> comm view height is at -500
highest ceeling of a path is 0
lowest bottom of a path is -1000
I have 3 levels that cross over each other in different heights all over the map.

This gives the following problems.
- When the comm follows actions in the lowest level the highest level RAPIDLY moves trough the screen.
- Perspective size differences of factor 2, you can see a marine on the highest level and far below you see his ant brother 1/2 as big. A green range circle on the highest level reaches 2 times farer on the bottom.
- Turret factories are not limited in the z-axis you can build turrets in a path with its tf being in another level(thats no big problem due the layout). alien chambers are limited in the z-axis (and that might be unfair).

    Yeah, I got a similar problem with the height of the comm. I have 1 room that connects 3 different hieght levels, One of them branching right off of the marine start. Wait, that means the marine start is the lowest place in my map, umm, yeah. I see it to be no prob, except to the ppl that like to overlap structures.
