Mac Map...the house that welcomes you in, but will not let you out...

Hi.

I was playing a scenario with the Mac Map. I selected a point in Gettysburg, and I got locked inside the house. Who knows maybe I got locked inside Norb's Warehouse. I also created a save while inside the building. When I reloaded the save game I was back at the beginning, with my troops.

Here are some pics...

I assume your joking, but just in case...if you click inside a structure from the map, you're trapped. To escape, bring up the map again, click outside somewhere...you're free. :)

Hi.

I never thought to use the map again to get out (Haaaaa, figures). I tried everything else but that... :blink:

Cheers, and Thanks.

Too many Wargames and not enough Adventure games...

It's actually the Adventure games that cursed me to a life of gaming. Remember the good old text adventures like Pirates by Scott Adams?

I had much more energy then....now it gets a bit difficult to have a good fart without straining something. :ohmy:

later!

I started with an Apple II+ playing Zork and Wizardry. Amazing what they did with 64K of RAM. That's right... 64K.

Don't say that! He'll find some piece of software that'll decorate all the houses with period furniture. And can the good citizens of Gettysburg be far behind? ;)
