symbols
sector sec
message entered
int saylines=1 local
end
code
entered:
if(saylines==1)
{
Print("This is the imperial base of operations you must infilitrate and escape with the keys from.");
Sleep(3);
Print("It is heavily guarded and you must avoid firefights to survive.");
Sleep(3);
Print("Once you have the three emergency stop keys in your possession, find a way out of the base to where you can contact Jan and make your escape.");
Saylines=0;
}
