README FILE FOR "Asteroid Aftermath"

Prepare for adventure in an exciting life of
computer systems administration and valve repairmanship!

A few notices regarding gameplay:

1) "Switchboard configuration" refers to the OPEN/CLOSED
states of all valves on the switchboard as a whole.
(e.g., OPEN/OPEN/CLOSED/CLOSED/CLOSED/CLOSED
is one possible switchboard configuration.)

2) If fourth valve is successfully opened, then closed
manually and re-opened from any configuration, no
opening message will be displayed-- the valve will,
however, open.  To get a message from the fourth valve
on any opening after the first, the reset command must be
used (if it is not already activated via the timer) prior
to opening.

I am particularly interested in hearing of any errors in
the game or hearing player responses to the game/story.
Commentary on the readme file is also perfectly acceptable.

Please feel free to send me any feedback or criticism through
ADRIFT forums or by e-mail to bowsmand@msu.edu
