Bugs and Glitches

i i i

Ghosts Interactions are for Heroes Credit: Kuro-chan The player can enter in: kick body while there is still no body to kick. talk body while there is still no body to chat it up with. attack body while there is still no body to attack. give cart being to scientist (unique). This affects Room 1 (Data Archive) and Room 2(start). No exceptions were made for these rooms while a body is not there.

i	The Barely Living Dead Credit: Kuro-chan If Roger triggers the door instead of the scientist, the door can close before the scientist finishes walking into the room, giving the impression he is clipping through the door. Appears in all versions of the game.

i	The Sliding Sarien Credit: Kuro-chan The animation sequence is not run for the Sarien as he leaves the room. Appears in all versions of the game.

Odd Coding

i	A Hovering Unit Does Not Count Credit: Kuro-chan The game does not update the description with the cartridge unit is separated from the console. If the unit is bringing a cartridge back, the game updated to the 'with cartridge' description.

i	A Polite Timer Credit: Kuro-chan While attempting to retrieve the data cartridge, the self-destruct timer pauses. The player can sit on this screen indefinitely. Once the 'search' begins, the countdown resumes.

i	Bodies? Where?! Credit: Kuro-chan The body addons in logic.0 are not applied to this room. The player cannot attack body, kick body or talk body.

Sariens Getting Stuck Credit: Space Quest Historian Additional Research: Kuro-chan It is possible to view the Sarien trio walking along the bottom half of the room... then get stuck behind a dead body on the floor. For this to work: The logic includes a setup for Sariens to walk along the bottom corridor if Roger is along the upper one. However, executing this causes the Sariens to get stuck due to how pathing does not happen when ego is not the target. Instead of removing it, however, they included a list of conditions that makes it impossible to view: Set v64 to a value between 30 or 50 and v62 to 2 while entering room4 from the upper left side. Previous room cannot be Room 3(to the left) and Room 11 (Star generator Room) Player must be on the right side of the screen for this to appear (That relates to room 3 being the previous room). The values must be overrided in a way that prevents the game from doing it for you, such as a program like Cheat Engine.

OK. I have mucho paperwork to finish. There is content that has been found since the page was last updated and needs to be included.
