I did mention that this is the 2000s as imagined by the 1970s, right? So having a tablet computer would be really surprising and amazing, considering that most civilian computers still operate on 8/16 bits.

Anyways, the mission proper should start proper on Saturday/Sunday or Monday at the latest. I was hoping to get it out today/tomorrow, but I've run into problems making a proper map which has set things back. Sorry about that.

It's not a tablet computer, it's a computer in tablet form, but with a keyboard and mousepad and the whole thing is about a foot by ten inches.

I am now imagining Iris holding a screen and keyboard in both hands like a tablet, but is also lugging around a big, bulky computer on her back to operate the entire thing. And whenever she wants to use another program she has to spend 5 minutes switching floppy-discs around. I hope you're happy, SB.

EDIT: Though doing a bit of research indicates that screen and keyboard would probably be the bulkiest part of the computer. Oh well. I guess she's just lugging around a backpack's worth of batteries instead.

I'm going to work this in somehow.

I said Saturday/Sunday, didn't I? Everything is still on schedule. Hopefully.

Double-headed lizard / humans...?

[USEC_OFFICER]

Yes? What about them?

Also: The x-axis always goes first, SB. So it's (14, 13), not (13, 14). You have it the other way around in your post.

[SOLDIER First]

They exist?
Addendum: Why do they exist?
How?
In, like, every other tile-based game I've seen, the letters are on the left and people would say (X, 1) or whatever. So my bad.
