For transitions...what about new chapters?—ts2do 17:51, 24 Feb 2006 (PST)

Afaik, chapter changes are just level transitions where a chapter title is displayed, from a map building perspective. Source also demands a "return-trip" level transition regardless of whether the newunit worldspawn keyvalue is set or not. If it can't find one, the level load fails with the following message in the console:
Host_Error: Level transition ERROR
Can't find connection to <previous level> from <next level>
I've verified this by experimenting with my own maps and by looking at how Valve handled the one-way transition from d2_prison_08 to d3_c17_01 and d3_c17_01 to d3_c17_02 (which is the first map of the new chapter Anticitizen One).
