If you shoot a ghost when it is half way through a wall, you lose all your bullets,
but the ghost is trapped, provided you don't move. The ghost will then keep moving back and forth in the wall, giving you points. But beware, when they escape you must be quick to get away yourself. (A. J. Walker in Crash issue 12 , Page 144) 7670 | ||||||

| Moving on to one of my
personal favourites,
Quicksilva's Fred, Paul Margetson claims to have
found the ideal solution for all
cheats. It requires a little work
to enter because of the loader
program. Paul says that his
girlfriend gave him 'invaluable
help' in finding the information
given here. But, without
elaborating any further as this
is an (almost) respectable
magazine, let's get on with the
hacking. First off, type 'LOAD "" CODE 26384' and play the tape. That done, type 'SAVE "FRED" CODE 34500, 22650' and save it to an empty cassette. Now, to load your newly-created game, type 'LOAD "" CODE 24500'. It won't autoRUN anymore, so you can enter the POKEs given here as direct commands. Once you've modified it to your requirements, enter 'PRINT USR 30285' to start the ball rolling ... Getting back to the POKEs, you can make your last unit of power everlasting with POKE 31175,0 - and if you want to vary the amount of power, POKE the number of units you require into addresses 30418, 31592 and 44696. Paul recommends a maximum of 240 units and, using these, he mentions that after level six you can choose the number of nasties in the mazes that follow. By the way, he recommends the Mark 2 version of the Picturesque monitor (which he used for hacking away at Fred). (Paul Margetson in Your Spectrum issue 13 , Page 6) 1573
