South Edge (SQ1)

South Edge

"Ulence Flats is a typical example of some of the frontier settlements that sprang up in the early days of the Outer Zone exploration several years ago. Unfortunately, this attracted many unsavory individuals looking to make a quick buckazoid. Caution is advised."

Notes

• There is a game logic inconsistency. The game specifically tells the player the power cells on the skimmer are drained and take time to recharge. Yet, when the player sells the skimmer to the skimmer alien, he has no troubles skimming away.

Bugs and Glitches

i	An Uninteresting Alien Credit: Kuro-chan While the mugger goes into the bar, if the player enters in look alien, they get no useful response.

i	Personal Space Has No Meaning! Category: Move Fail Credit: Kuro-chan The player can place Roger between the alien and his final destination and walking animation will look without limit. This also applies to when the skimmer guy is trying to leave the screen while driving the skimmer.

i	Peek-A-Boo! Category: Priority Mishap Credit: Kuro-chan Roger's feet can show in front of the field generator. A priority line runs along the very bottom of the room (Keeping Roger from walking south); this overrides the generator that normally appears in front of Roger.

The Jetpack is a Spy! Credit: Kuro-chan In v1.0X, there is no unique dialogue for the skimmer alien to simply ask for the skimmer. As a result, he claims to offer a jetpack in exchange for the skimmer. However, the game will only put the jetpack in the player's inventory during the second attempt to obtain it, making this offer false. If the player accepts this during the first attempt, Roger will not get a backpack in return. For this to happen, the player must have a minimum of 240 buckazoids before speaking to him for the first time. This is possible to accomplish under normal circumstances by ducking into the bar as quickly as possible and using the bar coupon to get 5 free buckazoids, enough to get the player started on the Slot Machine.
