Raffle maps are proposed by Seikoh Nisita, main developer of pupland maps,
and made out by me.

I know Crossfire v0.94.x had "Pet bug".(is it fixed on the current
version?)
Pets can go through a wall or a fence, down to up.
So pets can enter into the "cascade" and step on the big buttons.
If "chaos floor" or "angry floor" dont exist, you can easily get
the powerful items of pupland!!!! :-(

"chaos floor" kills pets.
"angry floor" breaks away pets from a player.
I realize that either of them should be necessary.
I hope to remove "angry floor" from Raffle maps. But I dont
have any environment to do so now. I will propose cleaning up
the maps to Seikoh Nisita, the main developer of pupland.
Please wait for the next version of pupland.

If you find other bugs or useless stuff in pupland maps
Please contact to Seikoh Nisita (s-nisita@ics.es.osaka-u.ac.jp) or me.
If you need to know current status of pupland maps,
Please visit http://tokweb.ics.es.osaka-u.ac.jp/~s-nisita/cf/
(Here is also an information and patches for partial protection. ;-)
