1. Introduction
1.1. Version Number, Author, Maintainer
Version Number: 95.02.03 (First release)
Previous release: 95.02.02
Any Changes? Yes.
First release: 95.02.03
Author/Maintainer: Michael Andersson
1.2. Please note!
This is a work in progress. I want your input.
If you feel I have left something out, tell me. If I have misspelled something, tell me. If you have a question you think should be included, tell me. If I have made a flagrant mistake, tell me. In other words, tell me anything you can think of to make this a better document. My email is
.
I will NOT cover material that is already covered in the game's manual. Really! The manual is only 92 pages long, including the Index and Table of
Contents--SO READ IT! There even is a small troubleshooting section, and I do not want to duplicate what has already been done. If there is a question that is frequently asked, and the answer is in the manual, I will put ``RTFM'' as an answer.
Maybe if I feel nice, I'll put a page number.
I will not tell you how to play the game. RTFM. And if people send me email asking stupid questions, I will either tell them to RTFM or RTFfaq. Other than that, I'm a real nice and helpful kinda guy.
Also, I have tried to be extremely careful about spoilers. The ``Non-Spoiler'' section has nothing, not even plotline elements that come out later in the game. The ``Spoilers'' section is a free-for-all- -any information could show up anywhere.
1.3. Thanks to ...
Michael Lewchuk , for his initial questions, subsequent help and e-conversations, and especially his detailed analysis of various installations' effectiveness.
Thomas Ruschak , for his plotline summary.
Lab Master , for assimilating much of the start-up information and volunteering me for this job.
