: As for your always arriving with more than 2x shields - I'm impressed given
: that Free Falling only offers a 2x recharger and has that nasty battle at
: the end!

There is a 3X power-up in the maze of Free Falling, fairly near the final battle. I always save it to the end and either die in that final battle, or come out of it with a loss of only .5 shields or so.

: Anyway... re the switch closest to the pattern buffer, this is what I wrote:
: it is beyond a bit of a nasty ambush up a lift nearby - nasty especially
: as we haven't found another working recharger yet. Troopers appear on both
: sides after we enter a room with a 'hydrospa' (seems fair enough) and the
: easiest way through is to jump off the stairs and down towards the cyborg
: by the switch.

That is a very nasty battle indeed, but at least you have a saved game to fall back on.

: And then just general comments - it is interesting that there are several
: ways of going about the level - clearly going left from the hub to start
: with would get you the recharger earlier and make the ducts more useful,
: but somehow I think I'd usually go right in such a situation.

I don't know what I did the very first time, but I nearly always go for the PB first, given a choice. Guess I'll never be a true vidmaster.

: As for progress, I finally found what I was looking for in 'Bats in the
: Belfry' - and it was a 'secret', at least in my opinion! I remember the
: last time I played it, just going back and forth between the places I
: could reach and being totally confused. I don't think I was even sure that
: I could (was supposed to) get into the large hexagonal area, but the
: actual method for doing so turned out to be kind of hard to find. A weird
: level all around though - should be fun to write about, but that won't be
: for a bit.

I'm still not sure I took the right path in that level - we'll have plenty to discuss when we get to it.
