Space Quest IV Beta

|
Debug Keys
|
|
By Beamer
|
|
|
|
THG's release of Space Quest 4 is a beta version which still
|
|
contains Sierra's debugging code. A few of these functions have
|
|
always seemed to survive in many of the released versions of
|
|
Sierra's software, but never have we been treated to the number
|
|
of functions available in this release. Following are the
|
|
functions I have discovered and my attempt at interpreting them.
|
|
|
|
Alt A gives current status of Ego (Ego is the main character)
|
|
|
|
Alt B displays "Script .943 not found" and exits to DOS (???)
|
|
|
|
Alt C display changes to the Priority bands. These are the
|
|
rough areas which control the priority of objects to
|
|
each other. Hit Alt C again to return to game screen.
|
|
|
|
Alt D Debug on/off toggle. This has many commands of it's own,
|
|
most of which are probably the same as the Alt commands.
|
|
I haven't experimented with this enough to speak of.
|
|
|
|
Alt E Gives info on available objects. The objects displayed
|
|
vary according to where you are.
|
|
|
|
Alt F Gives available memory parameters
|
|
|
|
Alt G Allows you to change variable values, if you know the
|
|
variable names.
|
|
|
|
Alt I This is one of the better ones. It displays all the
|
|
possible inventory items and lets you get anything you
|
|
want. Just click on anything, or everything, you want!
|
|
Remember though, getting things this way can cause the
|
|
program to behave in strange manners.
|
|
|
|
Alt M Adds 20 buckazoids to your bankroll. Good when you HAVE
|
|
to buy that hintbook at the mall and haven't used Alt I
|
|
for a bank card.
|
|
|
|
Alt N This is used to save bug reports (for the code jockeys
|
|
to decipher).
|
|
|
|
Alt P Another screen mode, similar to the Alt C screen. I
|
|
haven't deciphered the difference. To exit this screen,
|
|
hit Alt C twice.
|
|
|
|
Alt R Gives the room number and additional info for the
|
|
current room. Use these in conjunction with Alt T.
|
|
|
|
Alt T Another biggie. Teleports you to any room (screen) you
|
|
like. If the room number you enter does not exist, you
|
|
get dumped back to DOS. Here are just a few valid room
|
|
numbers:
|
|
|
|
25 to 115, in increments of 5, are the rooms you
|
|
begin Space Quest in. Room 72 is the manhole.
|
|
410 Skate-O-Rama
|
|
391 Software store
|
|
371 Clothes store
|
|
390 Radio Shock
|
|
385 Monolith Burger
|
|
375 Arcade
|
|
340 being tortured by 2 luscious babes
|
|
150 Roger Jr. in the ray
|
|
610 Bar from Space Quest 1
|
|
535 Docking bay on first planet
|
|
|
|
Alt W displays "Script .948 not found" and exits to DOS (???)
|
|
|
|
Alt Y Allows input of "vanishing" variable.
|
|
|
|
Alt Z Exits to DOS
|
|
|
|
So, enjoy and have fun.
