Re: [Audyssey] The Ensign game questions
Hi Sylvester. As I remember, you do need to get the hull at %100, though you can upgrade it more after that, however if you look at the ship you'll get a good idea whether you can lift off or not, it'll glow blue when it's ready. As to the upgrades you can buy, yes, each one takes up 10 weight in your inventory so you can have a limited amount, especially next to your weapons and food. I believe I finished the game with one of each type, but it's nice to have a use for all tha inventory space on the convoy, sinse back in a dark room it didn't really serve a purpose, also it keeps the hunt for alien alloy interesting. Btw, for a particular special, go and visit the general back at the swamp after you have found one particularly unique event that ties The Ensign back to the plot of A dark room. All the best, Dark. - Original Message - From: sylvester thomas III sylvesterthomastheth...@gmail.com To: Gamers Discussion list gamers@audyssey.org Sent: Tuesday, February 10, 2015 3:13 AM Subject: Re: [Audyssey] The Ensign game questions Greetings Dark! Well I am getting closer, Thanks for all your tips along the way. A few more questions for you to help get me to the end. Sppoiler for any one not at the end of the game. You have been warned! Any way I have the ships hull at 70 percent but cannot lift off. It seems that that button is not highlighted, or rather cant be selected. What am i missing? Do I need more alien aloy? Did I miss an item? Also one question about Eyes, health meley. Do these upgrades cost you weight? If I'm going on an adventure I may not neede lets say Eyes for example and need to carry other items, just wondered your thoughts on balanceing these items. Thanks So Much again for all the help.
