Can you be a little more specific or paste some text please ? The Assay don't change anything to the value of the deposite. It can help to choose a better plot with higher deposite and to know its neighbors (with the cross shape). Maybe the translation has made mistakes on some words ? Kroah

Yep, the C64 version is quite different from the Atari. For example, the Wampus can be caught several times on C64, but only one on Atari. I've never play on C64, so i can't tell more, but i've heard the same thing you said. Kroah

Yeah, it's almost correct. * In fact, if no one sell anything: - it's true for Crystite - almost true for Smithore (because of the modulo) - almost true for Food and Energy, because the value of the good is equal to the [email protected] price of the store + 15 * And the value of the good if someone sell at least 1 unit is equal to the average price of the units traded. At the last round, you can try to sell some units at a high price to a friend, you'll see the good value to rocket.

Yeah, i haven't put this online in the document yet. For the score of the colony: success = round of ( (total score - 10000) / 20000 ) success | score | message --------+------------------+--------- 0 | 0 to 19999 | OVERALL, THE COLONY FAILED... | | DISMALLY. THE FEDERATION DEBTORS' PRISON IS YOUR NEXT HOME 1 | 20000 to 39999 | OVERALL, THE COLONY FAILED... | | THE FEDERATION WILL NO LONGER SEND TRADE SHIPS. YOU ARE ON YOUR OWN 2 | 40000 to 59999 | OVERALL, THE COLONY SURVIVED... | | BARELY. YOU WILL BE LIVING IN TENTS. FEW TRADING SHIPS WILL COME YOUR WAY 3 | 60000 to 79999 | OVERALL, THE COLONY WAS A SUCCESS. | | YOU HAVE MET THE MINIMUM STANDARDS SET BY THE FEDERATION, BUT YOUR LIFE WILL NOT BE EASY 4 | 80000 to 99999 | OVERALL, THE COLONY SUCCEEDED. | | THE FEDERATION IS PLEASED BY YOUR EFFORTS. YOU WILL LIVE COMFORTABLY 5 | 100000 to 119999 | OVERALL, THE COLONY SUCCEEDED... | | EXTREMELY WELL. YOU CAN NOW RETIRE IN ELEGANT ESTATES 6 | 120000 to +oo | OVERALL, THE COLONY DELIGHTED THE FEDERATION WITH YOUR EXCEPTIONAL ACHIEVEMENT. | | YOUR RETIREMENT WILL BE LUXURIOU For the fact that the computer don't sell any good at the last round, is because the good value is lower if you sell than if you keep it. It's a bit long to explain here why, it will be online in a few days. Regards, Kroah

Hello everybody, If you are a fan of the game MULE, on the Atari 800 XL, i've made a website about its decompilation: http://bringerp.free.fr/RE/index.html There, you can find an english document (software translated from french until i finish it) explaining the algorithms used in the game, the AI of the computers, the hidden rules and secrets... If you have some questions about this game, its decompilation or for another Atari game, you can leave me a message on my decompilation forum. I hope you are still a lot to play this wonderful game. Regards, Kroah

At least on the Atari version (maybe commodore, not sure), the highest message (for a score higher than 130000) is: "Overall, the colony delighted the federation with your exceptional achievement. Your retirement will be luxuriou!" You can find more informations on my webpage consacred to MULE decompilation here: http://bringerp.free.fr/RE/index.html Kroah
