With the talk of editors and such, I'm going to assume that eventually we
*will* be able to edit levels.  I'm starting to think of ideas for levels
and was wondering if anyone would know exactly what you can do with the
Descent engine.  For example, the Doom engine did not allow one to be over
or underneath another passage.  With Descent, can you build a structure that
is completely suspended in space, i.e. not attached to the floor, ceiling
or walls ? I don't recall seeing anything like this in the game, but it
seems like it should be possible.
