It should 'click'. Then you run, don't walk, RUN to the exit.

Some shops sell weapons. Not many though. Some also sell better armour, which is wearable, depending upon your characters Robotic ability. SPOILERS FOLLOW Use the DIE next to one of the code-portal doors, roll the die and it will always roll a four, with one corner 'red' which indicates which button is next in sequence on the door. This only works on internal maze code-portals, not on the main base entrances! Use the ball's to kill some creatures, but watch out for bouncing superballs coming back! Use the ANTI-GRAV dev scape to be able to kill the floating droids in level 4. > I must be missing something because I can't > get back throught the portal.

*******WARNING*********SPOILERS***********WARNING********* OK, here's the scoop: The general goal on each planet is to find and destroy the generators. The entrance portal will not open until the generators have been destroyed. To destroy the generators, grab the explosives in your droid's hand and place them near the top of a generator - you'll hear a 'click' sound. The most common way to recharge is to touch an empty hand to a wall outlet (the three-pronged devices near the floor on some walls) and then touch your energized hand to the chest piece of a droid - isn't this in the docs? Not all shopkeepers have the same inventory, so keep looking And experiment with the Optics and Dev-Scape devices. -- Pery
