       @duhproject Literally just played this on Thursday. Those enemy ships move WAY too fast though

       @48kRAM Yes they do! Do you get the LIFT function? I read the manual and keys 123 control lift. Not sure what that really does...

       @48kRAM I think they just make your ship move faster, but not sure.

       @duhproject @48kRAM Yes..3 moves super fast, 1 is slow but you have super fine control. 2 is middle of the road. I think 2 is default.1 is good for asteroid fields and refueling tunnels. 3 is good for Urbite/Dramite ships. 2 is good for everything else.

       @duhproject @48kRAM Fun fact, when I bought this game new off the shelf in 1983, I started playing it immediately and didn't read the book, because I thought I totally knew it from playing it on store displays at Sears, Target, K-mart, etc.I had no idea about the 1,2,3 keys though. Not until many weeks after I'd bought it and went back and saw that bit. Totally changed the game for me!

       @paradroyd @48kRAM I'm starting to find that out! We're covering this in our Battle Of The Systems segment. So trying to learn the ins and outs. Never knew about the speeds.

       @duhproject @48kRAM That aspect is really important to the gameplay, especially if you're trying to get really high scores. It especially makes a huge difference later in the game when you have to hit opponents multiple times.
