This makes little sense. There are as many things visible when you are in
the tower as they are when you start the level. Something is clearly wrong.

The only thing I can think of is VSync Lock, in which your vidcard tries to
find the closest of 30 FPS and 60 FPS and lock to it, but then it doesn't
explain why you would have a higher frame rate before. I am befuddled...
but I will check to see if the same thing happens to me. If it does,
perhaps I can fix it.

Right now, yes. The AI doesn't have any pathfinding ability. However, once
it does, the fort will be no problem. Hopefully.

No, it isn't. It is much too small a level, but this isn't a multiplayer
game yet. However, we can take the finished fort and place it in a larger
level. For this I can see it becoming useful in a MP setting.
