Re: Suspended instructions?

["Max" <massimo@gte.net>]

Michael,

There are no special instructions that are different than other infocom
games.
You address your robots using the robot name and a comma followed by the
instructions eg.
WALDO, PICK UP CABLE

or

IRIS, GO WEST  long for IRIS, W

once the link is estabilished to a robot you can drop the first part and
just type the commands.

There is only a special situation where you will need a specific word not
usually available but it's kind of a spoiler and you can find it in
Invisiclues.

Can't help you on the map sorry, but you are right it's quite important :
go on ebay and buy an old suspended package for few bucks with all the cool
gizmos in it !!

I just finished the game and it's one of my favorite story I played , pretty
difficult too.
