CF \| You'd better get this one right, or you may suffer the fate of a

CF \| Trouble in Sector 471
CF \| A game by Arthur DiBianca
CF \| Release 1 / Serial number 220923 / Inform 7 build 6L38 (I6/v6.33 lib
CF \| 6/12N)
CF \|
CF \| Special thanks to Andy Fleming, Lorne Harris, Isaac Orf, Luke Pebler,
CF \| Dirk Spivey, and Mike Spivey for testing, and to Nadia Bellazola for
CF \| cover art.
CF \|
CF \|
CF \|
CF \| Entry Node
CF \| This is the primary entry and exit point for Sector 471. The transfer
CF \| conduit ends in a big hole in the ceiling. Other than that, the room
CF \| appears to be empty. It's quite dark, and everything is completely
CF \| silent. There's a passage to the east.
CF \|
CF \| (This game has limited commands. Type HELP for a list.)
CF \|

		Knight_Otu says, "Or at all."
		DavidW says, "That was the block of periods at the start. I think it does display."
		DavidW says, "but maybe only in a different pane as far as the interpreter is concerned."
		Knight_Otu says, "Hm, I thought Floyd wouldn't do side panels at all, but I wouldn't really know."
		Jade says, "com and zap"
		DavidW says, "Anyway, note that the command set is very small. We have cardinal directions, LOOK, WAIT, STATUS (ST), COM, and ZAP."
		DavidW says, "COM is our TALK TO nearby bot command."
		Jade says, "so the map is huge"
		DavidW says, "ZAP is our destroy the nearby bug command."
		DavidW says, "Yes. I assume there's 64 rooms in total."
		DavidW says, "We begin at the northwest corner of the map."
		Knight_Otu says, "And I presume LOOK is room description only. As often, no examine."
		Jade says, "Then I start a map"
		DavidW says, "The map is a completely regular 8 by 8 grid."

		DavidW says, "Our first goal is to restore power."
DavidW says (to ClubFloyd), "e"

CF \|
CF \|
CF \| Hall
CF \| This dimly-lit hallway runs west to east. You can make out a closed
CF \| door to the south. Something is embedded in the wall by the door.
CF \|
CF \| Gree-8 stands here, kind of drooped over and motionless.
CF \|
CF \| (Note: This game is unlosable. Don't be afraid to try things!)
CF \|

DavidW says (to ClubFloyd), "com"

CF \| Chip Analysis
CF \| There are several counters with a lot of stuff on them, and more stuff
CF \| on the walls, but in the dim light you can't see any of it clearly.
CF \| Exits lead east and west.

CF \|
CF \| Power Regulation
CF \| This is the power regulation center. You can barely make out a lot of
CF \| what must be complicated gadgetry. Doorways lead west and south.
CF \|
CF \| Engi-12 is sitting at a console, frozen in the act of something.
CF \| Turning a knob, maybe.
CF \|
CF \| You can hear a soft gurgling sound to the south.
CF \|

CF \|
CF \|
CF \| Primary Power Conduit
CF \| This is where power is supposed to enter the sector. A stripe is
CF \| painted around the walls. Large transfer contacts project from the
CF \| ceiling and floor. A doorway leads north.
CF \|
CF \| Oho! A big bug is blocking the power supply! It's a furry gray mass,
CF \| wedged in between the contacts. Little sparks pop all around it. It
CF \| chuckles and gurgles in a very unpleasant manner.
CF \|
CF \| >
DavidW says (to ClubFloyd), "zap"
CF \| >
CF \| > ZAP
CF \|
CF \| You take aim with your pest neutralizer and fire. There's a loud BLAM,
CF \| and the bug disintegrates into a multitude of little particles!
CF \|
CF \| Press SPACE to continue.
DavidW pushes the green 'space' button.
CF \| Press SPACE to continue.
CF \|
CF \|
CF \|
CF \| With a mighty hum, bright blue power begins flowing between the
CF \| contacts again. You hear a variety of distant sounds as the sector
CF \| comes back to life.
CF \|
CF \| You receive a message from Central Processing:
CF \|
CF \| "Power detected in Sector 471. Primary objective complete. Auxiliary
CF \| sector scan initiated......complete. Additional pest incursions
CF \| detected. New primary objective: eliminate pests.

CF \|
CF \| Primary Power Conduit
CF \| This is where power enters the sector. An orange stripe is painted
CF \| around the walls. Large transfer contacts project from the ceiling and
CF \| floor, and a wide stream of blue power hums between them. A doorway
CF \| leads north.
CF \|
CF \| >		Knight_Otu says, "Ah, so crystal ROX."
		DavidW says, "I don't know if the orange stripe is important or not yet. I've seen orange stripes in other rooms."

CF \| Power Regulation
CF \| This is the power regulation center. It's got a lot of arcane and

DavidW says (to ClubFloyd), "com"

CF \|
CF \| Engi-12 says, "I deal with the primary and auxiliary power regulators.
CF \| For some incomprehensible reason, they also put the zirbol tank
CF \| controls in here. Why the zirbol tank?"

		Knight_Otu says, "Do say when one of us should take over."
		DavidW says, "That's all Engi has to say. Some bots have more to say, but they mostly say just one thing at a time unless status changes."
		DavidW says, "well, you can take over at any time, really."
Knight_Otu says (to ClubFloyd), "rox"

CF \|
CF \|
CF \| Chip Analysis
CF \| Several long counters are covered with chips and circuit boards, and
CF \| various analytical instruments are hanging on the walls. It's pretty
CF \| disorderly, to be honest. Between two of the instruments you see a
CF \| depiction of a lightning bolt followed by two dots. Exits lead east
CF \| and west.
CF \|
CF \| >		DavidW says, "I think the lightning bolt is the first symbol of a three symbol code. I haven't found the other two symbols yet."
		Knight_Otu says, "Of course, why the unit that repairs the power would not be equipped with low-light vision is a question for the ages."
		DavidW says, "Some of the bot complain about how the place is built."
Knight_Otu says (to ClubFloyd), "w"

CF \|
CF \|
CF \| Hall
CF \| This paneled hallway runs west to east. There is a closed door to the

CF \| Switchboard
CF \| A ring-like console fills the room. It is dotted with countless

CF \|
CF \| Oper-4 sits inside the ring, constantly connecting and disconnecting
CF \| its twelve interface appendages.
CF \|
CF \| Oper-4 says, "I'm sorry, but we're still backlogged from the power
CF \| outage."
CF \|

		DavidW says, "I forget."
		Knight_Otu asks, "So OPERator, GREEter, ENGIneer... what was our designation again?"
		Jade says, "map"
		Knight_Otu says, "EXTER, it turns out."
		DavidW says, "Exter-17"
		Knight_Otu says, "(Accidentally hit the up arrow there.)"
		DavidW says, "We're an EXTERminator"
		Knight_Otu says, "I suppose we are less of a power restorer than we thought."
		Jade exclaims, "ah!"
		Knight_Otu says, "Interesting that we have a six letter code, while so far the other bots have four letter codes."
		DavidW says, "You can try to talk to Oper here, but they're too busy to talk back."
Knight_Otu says (to ClubFloyd), "com"

CF \| A cycle passes.
CF \|
CF \| Cur-11 staggers to its feet, leaving the documents on the floor. It
CF \| takes a moment to clear its head.

CF \|
CF \| Cur-11 says, "Oh, would you like to hear another note?" It turns away
CF \| from you, then notices the documents on the floor. "Just a moment."
CF \| Still facing away, it bends down and picks them up.

CF \|
CF \| The crystal starts to glow, and a bright spotlight appears, shining on
CF \| the sculptures.
CF \|
CF \| The startled bug scuttles back out into view!
CF \|
CF \| "Now let's find another note," says Cur-11 as it shuffles through the
CF \| documents.

CF \|
CF \| You aim your neutralizer and blast the bug to smithereens!
CF \|
CF \| Cur-11 spins around. "Hey, that was dangerous!"
CF \|
CF \| (Bugs remaining: 0)
CF \|
CF \| You receive a message from Central Processing: "Auxiliary sector scan
CF \| finds no additional pests. Objective complete. You may return
CF \| to Entry Node for extrication."

		DavidW says, "holey heck"
		DavidW asks, "How did you do that?"
		Knight_Otu says, "COM while the documents were scattered, but CUR was already standing."

CF \| Insulated Hall
CF \| The hall continues north and south. This section is covered with thick
CF \| beige insulation. A doorway leads east, and there is a closed door to
CF \| the west with an orange crystal embedded next to it.
CF \|
CF \| There is a magnetic nullifier here.

CF \|
CF \|
CF \| Decorated Hall
CF \| This hallway continues north and south. The walls here are decorated
CF \| with what must be bot-created artwork. It's pretty procedural stuff,
CF \| but at least it's colorful. A doorway leads east, and there is an open
CF \| door to the west. A glowing orange crystal is embedded next to the
CF \| door.
CF \|
CF \| Misc-7 stands in the corner, looking quite immature.
CF \|
CF \| There is a GX-series lopacitor here.

CF \|
CF \| East Hall
CF \| This shiny metallic corridor continues south, and there are doorways
CF \| in the other three directions. The debris has been cleared.
CF \|
CF \| >		Jade says, "; it is a timed like puzzle"
		Knight_Otu says, "You have saved, though, so we can return after seeing the ending."

CF \|
CF \|
CF \| Secure Chamber
CF \| This is where important and sensitive items are kept safe. Sort of a
CF \| vault. Counters hold a number of locked containers. An open door leads
CF \| west, and there's a doorway to the east. Both exits are surrounded by
CF \| red lights and sensors, but the lights around the western exit are
CF \| flickering weakly.

CF \|
CF \| Processing Annex
CF \| This annex has even more processing units. The green rail runs back
CF \| through the opening in the west wall. A doorway leads north, and there
CF \| is an open door to the east. A glowing orange crystal is embedded by
CF \| the door.
CF \|

CF \|
CF \|
CF \| Fabrication
CF \| An array of automated equipment takes incoming parts and assembles
CF \| them into various components and small devices. There's a lot of
CF \| whirring, clicking, and clacking. Doorways lead east and south.
CF \|

CF \| Charging Cafe
CF \| Bots come here to relax and recharge. Several are sitting around small
CF \| tables and chatting. You can exit north or west.
CF \|
CF \| Wait-3 is cruising from table to table.

CF \|
CF \|
CF \| Monitors
CF \| The west wall is covered with an array of monitors that show lots of
CF \| complicated data about the status of the sector. Doorways lead north,
CF \| east, and south. There are several bulky silicon housings attached to
CF \| the ceiling, and one of them is hanging open.

CF \|
CF \|
CF \| Conveyors
CF \| Just above head-level, four wide conveyor belts carry assorted parts,
CF \| boxes, and other items to and fro. Passages go north and south.
CF \|
CF \| Secu-10 stands frowning by the south wall.
CF \|

CF \|
CF \|
CF \| Switchboard
CF \| A ring-like console fills the room. It is dotted with countless
CF \| interface ports. There are exits in all directions.
CF \|
CF \| Oper-4 sits inside the ring, constantly connecting and disconnecting
CF \| its twelve interface appendages.
CF \|
CF \| "That port is not responding," says Oper-4.

CF \|
CF \| Hall
CF \| This paneled hallway runs west to east. There is an open door to the
CF \| south. A glowing orange crystal is embedded in the wall by the door.
CF \|
CF \| Gree-8 stands here, just waiting to be spoken to.
CF \|
CF \| >
Knight_Otu says (to ClubFloyd), "com"

CF \|

CF \|
CF \|
CF \| Entry Node
CF \| This is the primary entry and exit point for Sector 471. The transfer
CF \| conduit ends in a big hole in the ceiling. Other than that, the room
CF \| is empty. There's a passage to the east.
CF \|
CF \| You feel a strong suction coming from the conduit.
CF \|
CF \| >		DavidW says, "hup, I guess."
Knight_Otu says (to ClubFloyd), "hup"
CF \| >
CF \| > HUP
CF \|
CF \| You leap off the floor and get sucked into the conduit! You are
CF \| transported back to your home station in Sector 252.
CF \|
CF \| You receive a job report from Central Processing:
CF \|
CF \| Primary objective 1: Restore power. Complete.
CF \| Primary objective 2: Eliminate pests. Complete.
CF \| Optional tasks completed: 6/8
CF \| Completion time: 1259 cycles
CF \|
CF \| New usefulness rating: Very High
CF \|
CF \| This is great! Now you get perks like Tier 2 Lounge access, permanent
CF \| ROX, a fancy hull upgrade, and a gold-plated neutralizer unit! Another
CF \| job like this, and you'll definitely get promoted to the Second
CF \| Stratum!
CF \|
CF \| (Congratulations! If you want to return to Sector 471 and work on
CF \| optional tasks, type CONTINUE. Or you can QUIT.)
CF \|
CF \| >		Knight_Otu says, "I am rather not looking forward to fifty timed hups for the gym."
		DavidW says, "I could do that for you."
		Knight_Otu says, "Sure, if you want."
		Jade says, "lol, it is a good ending"
		DavidW asks, "What's the other optional task, the pipes?"
		Knight_Otu says, "Probably."
		DavidW says, "Maybe we should just stop here."
		DavidW says, "I don't wanna figure out the pipes puzzle right now."
		Knight_Otu says, "We are at the two hour mark, it's true."
		Jade says, "ok, it is fine for me"
		Knight_Otu says, "Maybe we should CONTINUE to be able to save if we want to revisit the optional tasks."
