	Message: : CHAPTER 1: MEMORY : (Originally this chapter was just called "Marathon"). : Chapter Screen: A spacescape, with Tau Ceti, Tau Ceti IV, the Marathon, the : Pfhor ship, and some small moon of Tau Ceti IV visible in the distance. : (The image of Tau Ceti IV in this is actually a Photoshopped image of Mars.) : Level 01: "Deja Vu All Over Again" : (Originally created by me; majorly revised by Don-Martin Antell. This level : was originally called "Back To The Future", then later renamed : to "Deja Vu" and, after its first complete remake from scratch, : "Deja Vu All Over Again", which has stuck ever since.) : You teleport into space just above the surface of Marathon, and upon landing : immediately transport into a small interior room. Outside that room is a : loading bay, inside of which is a terminal. : (That loading bay is the oldest feature of Eternal. It's the first thing I : built when I started this project, and I've insisted that it remain more : or less intact, even after the level has been built and rebuilt over the : years.) : [L01-T0-Unfinished] : Nearby, you find Bobs with pistols shooting at Pfhor who are teleporting in. : The Pfhor ship is visible in the distance through a window. Elsewhere : nearby, a Compiler is reading a terminal. : [L01-T1-Unfinished] : (Originally, the username in this log was "RBlake", but some people : thought that was a little too cheesy, so I changed it to the name of : another Robert I used to know, Robert McCollum. This terminal also used to : feature a bit more profanity directed at the unknown interloper, : especially after the Pfhor EMP hit - note the timestap just after 8:20 AM : - but I toned it down based on player feedback. Also note the subtle : reference to "one of security's big guns" being on his way up : from the colony right now... hmm I wonder who that could be...) : Elsewhere, in what appears to be some sort of personal quarters, with a bed : and a big comfy chair, is another random terminal. : (In a much older version, this was supposed to be Bernhard Strauss' quarters, : but that was cheesy and unrealistic, so now it's just a rest area adjacent : to the munitions test room just downstairs from it.) : [L01-T2-Unfinished] : (In an earlier version of this map, I had the Bobs be against both you and : the Pfhor, as the Bobs are implicitly working with Strauss and expecting : your arrival, about to do something unknown but undoubtedly nefarious with : you. That subplot is still there - Strauss' coup or whatever he had : planned was right about to take off, but then, entirely by coincidence : *cough* the Pfhor show up and ruin his day - but players found the Bobs : being against you to be confusing, so they were made to be wholly : preoccupied with the Pfhor. Also note the reference to the munitions that : had been stored in the quarantine bay, as per M1's "Blaspheme : Quarantine".) : Nearby the circuit breaker you're looking for, in a hallway, is another : random terminal. : [L01-T2-Unfinished] : (Note the originating domain on that message, mara.auto.ai.core. You'll see : that again later, which makes you wonder just who *cough* is transmitting : what to whom in this terminal. In actuality, I believe I took the hex code : in there from a copy of the original Marathon app as opened with a hex : editor.) : Eventually you find your way to the circuit breaker, and then make your way : back to the first terminal as instructed. : [L01-T0-Finished] : (Originally, I had this level set before the initial attack on the Marathon, : and this terminal ended abruptly after Hathor's comments that she couldn't : be hacked. On the next level it was revealed that the Pfhor EMP attack had : hit just then, which is why you end up in the sewers. I don't remember why : I changed that; probably just to stick to canon materials more, with the : EMP attack preceding any Pfhor presence on board the Marathon. That's : kinda borked anyway though, since almost this entire chapter takes place : in Engineering, which according to Leela in M1 was one of the last places : the Pfhor reached, while this whole chapter takes place prior to the : destruction of Tycho, which in M1 had already occurred by "Defend : THIS!", the beginning of the second chapter.) : You teleport out to Level 2: "Septococchal Pfhoryngitis".
