Energy Loss Cause Factors in priority order: 1. Destruction of Scarabaqs. 2. Use of Interrogator. 3. Attack by Hoverdroids. 4. Excessive Vectrakker thrust. Mission Evaluation """""""""""""""""" 1000 x Sector No. for completion of Sector. Bonus for completing Sector in allocated time. Advice for Novice Patrolmen """"""""""""""""""""""""""" For each Sector: 1. Patrol and learn Sector layout. Ignore Scarabaqs until you find a 'dead end'. 2. Find a Scarabaq. When chased they will always stop two junctions ahead of your vehicle unless they are at a 'T' junction, when they will go round the corner and stop. Using this behaviour pattern, manoeuvre and chase the Scarabaq into the dead end. It will lurk in the left or right recess. If you choose the wrong recess to look in the Scarabaq will escape. 3. One burst of the interrogator will give the key. The second burst will vapourise the Scarabaq. This ensures you wont chase the same one again BUT drains an energy block. 4. Alway be alert for Hoverdroids. Good Hunting! Controls """""""" Left - O Right - P Forward - A Fire - Y Restart - G
