Thanks Sefir, but that’s a last resort I’m not willing to try yet. There’s just the one save file which contains all the saves. (I took my own advice and saved very often, so my save file is huge.) So if you sent me yours I’d be playing your game and lose my own saves.

Well, if people are ready for the next hurdle, please post.

I’m still behind, Fien.  My house has been turned upside down because we’re having painting done, and the usual places I can set up my laptop haven’t been accessible since Thursday.  I’m also working on a certain tourney that has been taking up quite a bit of time.  However, I am determined to finish it this time.  It’s just going to take me longer than I expected.

Yes, I agree. It’s best to play Cilia before Deven arrives. First time I played the game, I noticed him sitting somwhere. But this time I saw him arrive, in the company of two others and you can talk to them as well. If you don’t do anything just for fun in the bar (or restore after you’re done exploring and talking to non-essential aliens), you’ll have plenty of time to do all the emp-tels. IMO, the best order to do things is:

Fleebix/Thud and Soldier and Seedrot. The order doesn’t matter and they are available from the start. Next is Cilia when she takes a break, and the drug dealer (or vice versa, if Cilia is still busy). Deven arrives 10 minutes before the theme bar opens. After his emp-tel you explore the theme bar and you must urgently find ways to protect yourself or the shape-shifter will identify you and kill you. The last emp-tel will be the robot.

OK, how on earth do you drop the fruit in Seedrot’s emp-tel?
I know I’m supposed to “fantasize” about that book once I’ve grown a fruit, but how do I do that? Where’s the “fantasize”-button?
I’ve exhausted all my options multiple times already and am currently at wit’s end…

TV is your friend. (nope, I haven’t dropped the fruit yet also)

Timovieman, I’d like to help you with a subtle hint so I won’t ruin it for you, but I don’t have enough info. Please tell us what you’ve done so far. And the book isn’t everything, there’s a whole lot of other stuff.

Way ahead of that, I already have grown a fruit.
It’s the dropping part I’m stuck at (which I assume is the very last thing before the emp-tel ends)...

Timovieman, did you mark a page in the book first? There should be a “fantasize” button.

I think the fantasize option only appears when you’ve opened the book AND of course have done everything you should do, like grow a fruit.

Then I have a problem. I did all those things already, and there’s no “fantasize” button…

I even considered the possibility that I hadn’t called that TV doctor in this particular save (because that’s where you find out about the fantasizing), but calling him now doesn’t work (it rings but no-one answers). So I guess I did call him.

Frak, I hope I don’t have to replay the entire emp-tel…

You sure there’s not something else you need to do after growing a fruit? Reset the environmental controls or something?

You can’t NOT mark a page. Once you look in the book, your only options are “next page”, “mark page and exit” and “previous page”...
