In Response To: Cops dress in blue. (Thomas)

: The Marathon Physics Model Editor by Hansen provides more information on all
: of the BoBs and their colors (there's science, security, engineering, and
: simply "crew"). Unfortunately I'm stuck in OS X for the moment,
: and running these games in classic mode is a wee bit unstable. :)

It's Hanson, not Hansen... sorry if you're out there.

Since I'm a loser, I had nothing better to do Friday night than to furnish complete strangers with unimportant information on the significance of the colors of some frantic humans in a game published seven years ago. The horrors of procrastination...

If Hanson is to be believed...

- Crew is green
- Science is yellow
- Security is blue
- Engineering is red

Anyone rude enough to send mail to ask Hanson where he pulled these out of? It was hanson@cs.stanford.edu, but that's probably invalid by now. As far as I can tell from tooling about the Marathon files with a hex editor, the names were extracted from the Marathon files so this is pretty reliable I think.

Have you ever tried mucking about the marathon files? If you have an hour to kill and have absolutely nothing better to do, you can find some strange things. Not particularly interesting, but strange. I found lots of references to "Barney meets Godzilla" in the shape file. Like I said, not interesting, but pretty strange.
