This is an Automap view of the first-person video at youtu.be/xJ7PgOJKbEk

Shows how a player can sometimes increase running speed in Classic Doom games by pressing into a wall while running alongside it. The level shown here is Doom/Ultimate Doom level E2M8, Tower of Babel. This demo was recorded without monsters in order to show the phenomenon without spending time on combat.

Here the player character fires a rocket north, and then runs fast enough to outpace the rocket and stand in its path. (Fortunately a rocket can pass right through the player who launched it. :)
