Staircase

Staircase in Warehouse.

The Staircase is a map object used to access elevated platforms.

Usage

To use a staircase, simply press the Forward, Backward, Left, Right, or Jump Keys (default "W", "S", "A", "D", "Spacebar" respectively). The Forward and Backward Keys are used more while using a staircase than the Left, Right, and Jump Keys.

Tips & Tricks

• Know what staircase can be shot through the steps in each map. It is sometimes easier to kill enemies through the steps of the staircase (mostly Staircase #6 in Timbertown).
• Know what staircase can't be shot through the steps (or platform barriers) in each map. Having cover from bullets is very useful (mostly Staircase #2 in Tower and Staircase #6 in Timbertown).

Trivia

• Every map except Courtyard has at least one staircase.
• Almost every map that has staircases has a unique staircase:  Staircase #2 is exclusive to Tower, Staircase #5 and Staircase #6 are exclusive to Timbertown, Staircase #7 is exclusive to Crane, and Staircase #9 is exclusive to Pipeline.
