Here's the map editing doc I promised. It's my first run at it. Let me know if you have any problems with it. Thanks and enjoy. :)

Just so we are on the same page, there are two "barriers" that kill the player. The MissionArea and the floor.
The MissionArea acts like a four-sided fence that keeps players penned in the playing field. You pass through it, you're snuffed.
The floor is what it sounds like, it keeps players above it. You pass through it, you die as well. It's what's used in the valleys.
Don't want the floor? Lower it below the terrain. Don't want the MissionArea interfering? Expand it outward.
Hope that helps.
