MAJOR glitch!

Ok. I'm working on re-building my Match map, (See my other thread.) Which is now a CTF map. In the middle of the arena, I have a great big pool of water that touches the walls on the left and right side of the map. I have a Crumbling, Bobbing, Floating FOF (Reapearing) over it, that you can get on via red, diagonal spring in the water. If you make it fall, it becomes a bridge. But because of the height, it goes through the floor of the lake, but comes back up.
Here's part of the glitch: If the floor smashes something (Badnik or Player, mainly) It's vertical size changes. It will either shrink, or grow. But it'll resume normal size when it reapears... If it grew, that is.
Here's the main attraction: I was having a look at this shrink/grow glitch (At the time, I only knew that it grew.) in 2P by having Tails smash Sonic with it. (Some sacrifices must be made for research. :P ) It shrunk, which is how I figured that it'll either shrink, or grow, and not just grow. And it dissapeared. But then, I saw what seemed to be orange specks in the water. and the orange specks in the water animated along with it. I turn my charecter to get a better look. The specks not only grew as I turned, orange specks began to appear on the regular floor! (The floor is FLOOR0_6, or Grass, BTW.) Guessing what would happen, I turned my charecter back and forth. Soon, the water and the grass were no longer distinguishable from each other, as they were both turned into the same shade of orange. And the charecter sprites were being effected too! and so was the rest of the map, as Sonic, who went back to his starting point after being smashed, could see. The walls (GFZROCK, or checkered brown dirt wall.) remain untouched by the orange. Eventually, the game crashed with a "Segmant Violation" popup.
... What the bloody heck was that about? :eek:
I don't know whether it was a WadAuthor (The level maker I'm using.) glitch, or an SRB2 game glitch. :|
 
I didn't read all of that, but if the problem is happening in a specific wad, you'll need to give us the wad if you want anything done about it.
 
I can't post it, because I don't have a file server, or whatever you put files on the internet. I've just sent a114 the files, though.
