Trivia

 * On Mission difficulties 1 or higher, some Levels are inaccessible until certain Mission elements are performed:
 * 3-6 and 5-6 elevators arrive at Executive Level only after completing the Laser Mission
 * 6-7 elevator takes the player to Engineering only after jettisoning Beta Grove
 * There is a chance that even when the Mission difficulty is set to 0, the player will be informed by the PA System of either "power diverted to level R." or "Elevator disabled: BioHazard emergency." after using the control Panel inside the 3-6 / 5-6 or 6-7 Elevator(s) respectively. These messages can be repeated very fast, over and over again. The same can happen in 6-G3 Elevator ("Gamma Grove already jettisoned."). The game can also partially freeze. This chance is rare and the exact causes of this are unknown.
 * It is possible that afterwards the text descriptions will stop showing (resulting in eg. online help displaying lines with no text connected to them) or the game will even crash after saving/loading. Results may vary.
 * This bug seems to be fixed in System Shock: Enhanced Edition Source Port version 1.2.15.
 * Almost all Elevators in the game (with the exception of Freight, Groves' and 5-6 ones) were originally designed to take the player to Levels: 1, 2, 3, 6, 7 and 8 - as shown on their inactive, dim panel buttons.
 * MFD and fullscreen maps of Navigation and Mapping Unit display Elevators in dark brown colour.
