SYSTEM SHOCK: THE FINAL CYBERSPACE
Mike Fay, 12/31/94
The following are cheats for the final System Shock cyberspace battle
against Shodan (the terminal on station level 9). Do NOT read if you
don't want to know!
CAVEATS
This is how the game worked for *me*. Some things could be random
and/or Origin may have released different versions, how would I know? I
used the floppy version that says "version F1.5S" when you exit the
game, with a SSCHOCK.EXE of 1,174,697 bytes dated 9/11/94 12:21.
GENERAL LAYOUT
The general layout is two concentric square "rings", with Shodan inside
the inner ring (like a bullseye). There are rooms at each corner of the
outer ring (i.e., four), and none in the inner ring, with three
crossovers between the two rings (all sides except where the entrance
comes in). There are also three external rooms (including the entrance
hallway), sticking out three of the "sides" of the outer ring.
You enter the grid at the outer ring. The inner ring's flow goes in the
opposite direction of the outer ring's. There is only one entrance to
Shodan's innermost room, opposite the entrance to cyberspace.
