it is most probably your java version, i needed to install update four before i could run it. Has anybody got any ideas about what use the building maintenance page has, the links definitely look interesting, but they dont work. Perhaps the main page will change and give us some more info?

P.S If i was Mind Candy, i'd probably check the forums every day... perhaps thats how they know when to spoonfeed us, also its not all about the £100,000 i posted the password as soon as i found it.

PPS Its not the wining, its the taking part that counts

People reporting similar room 14s got me thinking about those 'spot the differences' puzzles... I can't be bothered looking myself, but do the other rooms on each floor share similar similarities? If they do not, then [room 14, level x] looks more like a lead and less like free association from 'r14' bringing up server room 4.

It seems to me (although, I can really talk, having done next to nothing in this arg so far) that picking rooms at random and following them until they fail will take forever to find the 'right' room. What the 'right room' has to do with this is so far unknown to me (perhaps http://salkfamily.com/theyarethisstory/ will shed light when we unlock it?) but finding it seems to be the most obvious objective of the program, considering the clues we've been given.

Personally, I'm going to wait until that passworded log is unlocked, because all the blue is making my eyes water, but if anyone wants to check every room against the criteria, it would make life easier for everyone else.

I wrote this down for my own convenience, and then ran out of steam:

>Requirements:
Single occupant staying in room
Day 01 (25 May) 17.38 Returns
Day 16 (9 June) 02.30 Returns
Day 18 (11 June) 10.15 Absent
Day 20 (13 June) 20.59 Absent
Day 20 (13 June) 21.26 Returns
Day 21 (14 June) 12.41 Absent
Day 21 (14 June) 23.22 Leaves
Day 23 (16 June) 17.15 Returns
Day 23 (16 June) 19.32 Leaves
Day 26 (19 June) 04.41 Leaves
Day 26 (19 June) 04.59 Returns
Assuming PFCMacWalker actually has the right room and isn't revealing which one, someone should stop outside the room on Day 14 (June 7) 1830


Those times are obviously very hazy: For instance, I noticed that after saying she'd be away for 24 hours at 11.22pm, 155-14 didn't leave until 10am the next day. Does this count? I don't know.

SteveC, which rooms did you manage to disprove before the java crashes became unbearable? Listing them will save people doubling up.

Just an FYI

I just started up the program again today and noticed that WebStart downloaded an updated version of the Jar file. Not sure what is different, but most likely it's just internal changes that we won't notice, except for perhaps increased stability or performance.

I can confirm that on the Mac, it is right there in your home folder.

So maybe it isn't a bug? But why should R14 lead to Server Room 4 when the more appropriately titled SR4 does the job already? They aren't separate, identical rooms -- your sensor.names.props file proves that.

Welcome, tufty, but remember to search:

It's been mentioned in General/Updates.

Anyone need some maps?
