Central Plains
The red dots on the radar map are locations you can visit. Click on a red dot to get an outline view of the destination. If you wish to travel to this location, click on the outline view. If you do not wish to visit the location, click anywhere outside the outline view. In an outline view, if there are crew members at the location, their code number will be displayed in the outline view. Biots (Raman robots) will also be shown in the outline view. A biot is marked with green dots. You can run into two types of biots on the Central Plains; centipede and crab biots. The centipede biots are marked with four green dots in a straight line and are harmless. The crab biots are marked with six green dots in a triangle formation. If you see the crab biots in an outline view at anytime, do not enter that area, you will die.

The locations on the radar map are: Warehouse, London, Bangkok, Big Wheel, Base Camp and the Iceport. Using clock notations, here are the locations of each area - Warehouse at 3:00; London at 1:00; Bangkok at 9:00; Big Wheel at 10:30; Base Camp at 4:00 near the edge and the Iceport at 4:30 near the center. All other dots are either crew members or biots.

First visit each red dot (except the crab biot dots). Crew members will talk to you, some will give you something. Find the centipede biot and he should drop an object... pick it up. If the centipede biot doesn't drop anything, try finding him later. If he never drops anything, Nicole will give you the object that he dropped. There are a lot of puzzle pieces you need to pick up.

To get the number: Look at the 3:00 position, this is the starting position. Notice the inner circle of colors and the outer circle of colors. Starting with the inner circle, count how many positions away the white bar is (count clockwise). Take this number and multiply it by 8. Next take the outer circle and count how many positions away the white bar is (counting clockwise). Add the two numbers together for the answer. For example - the inner white bar is at the 9:00 position and the outer white bar is at the 6:00 position. The inner white bar is 6 away. 4 * 8 = 32. The outer white bar is 2 away. 32 + 2 = 34.

To get the bomb code, you need the photo of O'Toole from the octospider museum, his catechism card from the octospider teacher and his ID card from the subway. The code has 20 numbers, 5 groups of 4 numbers. Look on the back of each item and you'll see numbers, one on the photo and 2 on each of the catechism and the ID cards. Use these numbers to find a number in O'Toole's number sequence:

 

0041 0043 0047 0053 0061
0071 0083 0097 0113 0131
0151 0173 0197 0223 0251
0281 0313 0347 0383 0421
0461 0503 0547 0593 0641
0691 0743 0797 0853 0911
0971 1033 1097 1163 1231
1301 1373 1447 1523 1601

If the number on the back of an item is 20 count across to the 20th number and get 0421.

The bomb code numbers are found, from left to right, from the catechism card, photo, ID card, ID card, catechism card. Use the sequence numbers above on the bomb and press the input button. You have three chances to disarm the bomb. Back up, move right twice, forward four times and watch the endgame sequence.
