A) on tatooine there appears to be a copy of the map as a secondary skybox (or an addition to it). it can be easily seen if you grapple to an edge of the wall at the outside ship (north from it, presuming the main arena is south).
my main question is: how could this happen?

B)in the yavin duel map's jedi temple taleport there is a black room next to the temple, it has a console screen inside it which confuses me because that is how coppyable and animated assets are hidden in single player, but to my knowledge this map doesn't contain an area with this console and no other jedi temple taleports have it, so if possible could it be explayned what it is?
it can be seen if you jump to the left side of the entrance windows and look north-west (jumping helps too)

Some SP maps contained no skybox as it was impossible (without no-clip) to move beyond the borders of the map. If you did you get that void look where nothing is overdrawn of your own character, so it's just a mess of confusing model echos. In MP you can grapple to see over the walls, and as we have embedded maps all you see in nothing but the void. So I decided to "take a picture" as the map renders and use that as the skybox. Note the skybox image is captured before all the assets are placed, so I couldn't embed an image and skybox that!

That black room associated with the temple is the inside of a spaceship. It would have been used for a cut-scene in the SP game, so the developers just mocked that up as a stage for that scene. Note there are 5 or so different academy maps, all of the same temple, just taken for different phases of the SP game. The temple used in duel6 for instance is a different map to the temple used in ffa3.
