NOTES: The following guide is meant to provide a full walkthrough of the game
allowing the user to pick up all of the powerups. If you keep running into
problems with time, especially if the military is showing up too soon, it
might be a good idea to ignore some of the powerups and find a shortcut
through the level. Notice that within each section plot lines may seperate
slightly and will be noted as such.

GENERAL HINTS, TIPS & NOTES:
1) Avoid roving security cameras by watching their position on map. When
they are moving away from you, move in and stun them quickly.
2) You can safely be spotted twice by security cameras.
3) If you destroy a camera before diffusing the second bomb you lose 3
minutes of time before Fitz will detonate the bombs.
4) Once on Level 3 security cameras become pretty much irrelevant except
to view the contents of rooms.
5) Try to stun an armed scientist and search him for any items he/she may
have. Then kill 'em to remove them as a future annoyance!
6) DO NOT engage the military unless you get the Alien Weapon.
7) When you need to follow a character turn on the map and try to stay
one step ahead in order to clear the way. If you get too far ahead
they'll stop where they are until you get close again. If they move in
a different direction re-position yourself in front along their line of
travel.
8) If you get far enough away from Reese/Jenkins/Warrior (on the map!)
you can safely move about to get powerups since they'll be left alone.
9) Wat ya starin' at grunt? dGet goin'! Time's a wastin'!
