: Never mind that, those other dooks are yapping about terminals for

: A1 doesn't. Pathways-style conversations will require keyword input, no

: of text-entry module?

: /jzero

We'd probably make that easier, but have the last three code digits left on a piece of paper you have to go find somewhere...

For dropping the bomb and entering the code, have it like this:
The bomb is a key card. You pick it up from near a dead guy.
At the bottom of Who Else Wants Some, there's a locked door instead of the final teleporter. You have a set of switches (like in Missed Island) that you have to enter the bomb code on, then a switch you pull for "Engage Bomb". Then you run and leave. It takes you to a different version of the first level depending on the Pathways winning conditions. A Pfhortran scene takes over (if it's for A1) and you walk out.

(And, of course, if you enter the SECRET NUMBER OF FUN on the code switches, it opens the obligatory credits terminal)
