THE GAME
You are flying an
unarmed helicopter carrying vital medical supplies through lengthy
caverns in order to reach your agents who have been wounded behind
enemy lines. The caverns are well protected with antiaircraft
batteries, space mines, rockets and lasers so the mission is dangerous
and difficult and the caverns are lengthy. The only aid you have apart
from your own skill is a radar scanner at the top of the screen to
show your position in the cavern. The joystick controls the helicopter
in any direction and you have three helicopters, each with a limited
supply of fuel. The space bar will pause the game at any point
TYPING IT IN
Cassette users can type
in the main listing as it stands. Make sure that you save a copy
before you try to RUN it. Type RUN and the program will check each
line of data and tell you if you have any errors. If all is well, you
will be asked if you are ready to run. A 'Y` will begin the game.
Disk users should type
in the main listing but substitute the lines shown in Listing 2. It
may be easier to type in the main listing first and then type Listing
2 at the end as the lines will automatically overlay those to be
replaced. Make sure that you
save a copy of the program before you RUN it. Before
you type RUN, ensure that you have a formatted disk in drive 1. The
program will check the data line by line and write a file to disk with
the filename "D: RESCUE.DAT" and then ask you if you are
ready to run. A `Y' will begin the game. To RUN the program
subsequently, type in Listing 3 and save with whatever filename you
wish on the same disk as "D: RESCUE.DAT". You can then RUN
the program by typing RUN "D: (your filename)".
