No one today will tell you who has the game for the PS2 version, because they're playing it. I know a lot about it, because Nintendo from Nintendo Power magazine told us about it. You can't make outdoor maps, though. There's a lot of other things. It's more advanced than TS1.

Well, first of all, there are 5 tile sets: Gothic, Virtual, Victorian, Industrial and Alien. There's a map preview mode to see what you've done after you've put the basic structure down. (It's in 3D like you're actually playing the game!).

There's a hole bunch of items that you can place from weapons to power-ups to spawning points and entrances/exits. You can add a lot of other stuff, too. You can specialize missions, too. You can set lights and effects for a map.

You can store enemies for single player maps, and bots for multiplayer maps, and edit them and their settings/levels.

There's also a game logic primer, which is almost like programming language. It's complicated at first but only because it offers you almost unlimited options. To get the hang of it, try creating a story mode mission objective your first time through.
