i'm having red rock problems. in the end when i'm in the fire pit looking for mary, i found another big bag of red rocks. however, once i went through the first bag and it disappeared, it won't acknowledge that i have a second bag in my inventory

u onlyhave a certain no. of moves in which to get out of the pplace and rescue Mary...it does not matter how many bags of red rocks u have, if u do not complete finding Mary , u will just be stuck and have to start all over...also, in case u r starting over, i would advise u to buy a bomb as u will need it to get out of the place...happy gaming

i've tried and tried to rescue mary, but i just can't seem to find the right route...do you think you might be able to tell me what the correct route is? i'd really like to move on to story five. thanks!

The second bag not being recognised might be a bug. I'll look into it.

Doesn't appear to be a bug

Hmmm, just tested this. Had the first bag with six red rocks left, got the second, and went to 16 red rocks. Used up another 8 zapping around looking for Mary, found her, rescued her... The only bug is the fact that the second (or first) bag of red rocks doens't disappear from your inventory after you clock around ten. So maybe you'd thought you had rocks left because you had 2 bags in your inventory, when in reality you only had 1 bag left. Hmmm, I'll write a patch for this. I've got a couple of other bugs to fix that Ted Shutes has given me. ;)

ok, thanks. how do you know how many red rocks you have left, anyway?

I have a debugging script or two I use in making my dmod. One which tells me which map and where I am and one which tells me what the global variable values are at any given point in the game. :)
