Questions: Did anyone manage to get the kids out of the Colony, into the ship, and fly away? Is there another ending to the program? How do you get out of the forklift??? Do not give too many hints please, just a yes/no will suffice for the first two questions. Thanks! -- pff@beach.cis.ufl.edu Pablo Fernicola - Machine Intelligence Laboratory - UF "That has nothing to do with computers; it is software."

READ ON TO FIND THE ANSWERS TO THESE EXCITING QUESTIONS > >Did anyone manage to get the kids out of the Colony, into the ship, and >fly away? > Yes. >Is there another ending to the program? > There is a different message displayed whether you rescue all the kids or not. However, the solution does not change. (I'll warn you that it gets tricky to coordinate all your activities near the end - figuring it out is one thing, but I recommend writing down your plan of action before you actually try to do it, especially if you go away and come back later) >How do you get out of the forklift??? Depress the mouse key, drag the mouse back, release the mouse key. Make sure there is room behind the forklift for you to "back out" into. With a little practice, you can get really good at doing this quickly (you'll need to be able to). Sometimes it causes you to fire your gun upon exiting, but with practice that will go away too. > >Do not give too many hints please, just a yes/no will suffice for the first >two questions.

LEVEL 5: Center of 3x3 (5x5) "maze". (This one takes a major trick to get) LEVEL 6: In the center of the SouthWest maze. If you have trouble figuring these references, you can get a copy of Colony maps from CompuServe or Sumex-Aim to help you out. -- Jeffrey A.
