- STARGLIDER CHEAT

- As his Xmas present to his friends of the AmigaZone on Plink,
- Jez (2 weeks) San, author of STARGLIDER, released his secret cheat
- passcode for the game.
- Most authors of game software put in special "back door" passwords
- so they can test routines of their game in an invicible mode, without
- actually having to play the game as an end user would.
- To try out the password in Starglider, load the game as usual and
- get to the first play screen where you have been lauched and are ready
- to do battle. Then perform the following sequence:
- 1) slow down so your speed is zero, that is, standing still in space
- 2) hit the F1 key to turn on "fixed sight"
- 3) hit the backspace key to pause the game (kaboom!)
- 4) type in JS_ARG_S

- Those are spaces between the letters
- You should now be in "invincible" mode and your supply of fuel will
- remain constant, and your shields will not be depleted. If this
- password doesn't "take" the first time, try it again. You might have
- to dock (you know where) and re-exit for it to work. You will know
- when you're in the invincible mode since repeatedly hitting the "P"
- key will get you additional missles, up to 9 at any time.
- With this cheat in effect, you can pretty much play the game as long as
- you like, attacking and destroying those foes and advancing to higher
- and higher levels.
- Once in this mode, after you've gotten bored of being invincible,
- there's one other key on the keyboard that I've found that does something
- VERY interesting. It puts you into a mode where instead of playing
- the game, you can view all the foes in a sort of 3-d editor mode.
- Once in this editor, many other keys come into play for selecting
- which object to view, spinning it around in 3-d space on x, y, and z
- axes, and using the mouse to move the objects around in space on your
- viewscreen.
- To get into the 3-d editor, you hit the.... well.... any good game
- player should be able to find the key [grin]. Remember you have to
- be in the invincible mode first before you can enter the object editor.
