INSTALLATION:
Well BUGS can be installed on your IBM or compatible computer in a matter of
seconds. All you have to do is use the niffty little INSTALL program, answer
a few easy questions and your off and running!
At the DOS prompt type: INSTALL
BUGS will work on your BBS if you can write a DOOR.SYS, DORINFO1.DEF or
SFDOORS.DAT drop file. You can play with BUGS locally too! Just type
BUGS local <rtn>
If you are installing on a BBS you will need to write a simple little batch
file to execute the game. Here is the one I use....
<SAMPLE BATCH FILE>
Copy c:\bbs\DOOR.SYS c:\doors\bugs <--- Copy my dropfile to the game dir.
CD c:\doors\bugs <--- Change to the game directory
BUGS <nodexx.cnf> <--- Execute BUGS the default
configuration file is NODE01.CNF
cd c:\bbs <--- Change back to my BBS directory
BBS.EXE <--- Reload my BBS program
Thats about it...... This game should not be very difficult to install
and hope you dont have too much problems.....
GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS:
B U G S !
Instruction:
Welcome to the bug invested world of Baker's Patch! Your job is to
exterminate all those nasty critters. Yeah well how do I go about such a
task you may ask? As a new employee of the ACME Bug-B-Gone Company you are
outfitted with latest EPA approved poison pistol! All critters are not
created equal. Some poisons work better than others. You must exterminate
all bugs in the room to go on to your next job.
WARNING! You must fire your bug spray at the "TARGET" insect indicated on
your screen. These little critters have a nasty habit of multiplying
should you spray a non-target insect. Things could get real nasty if you
were to have a room full of crawling critters. All critters bite! Some
are even more lethal than others. Watch out or its curtains!
Jewels
A good exterminator often finds "tips" laying about. You may stumble
across some jewels "". These jewels have magic powers. Some may give you
strength, wealth or health while others may alter your bug spray. To pick
up a jewel you must walk on top of it. To use a jewel you must find a match-
ing jewel holder "░" of the same color. Good Luck!
Magic Mushrooms
Magic mushrooms are super power yuppie food! They are always good
to eat and will always make you feel better. They help heal any wounds you
may have received during your battles. Salad anyone???

I)nstructions: Display game instructions (This file).
C)redits: Display program credits.
R)edraw: Refresh current screen should line noise scramble
the playfield.
P)age Sysop Page the Sysop for a little chat. (This feature may
be disabled by the sysop).
M)usic Toggle If your terminal software is capable of playing ANSI
music codes you can enable this option. QMODEM
Copyright 1990 by The Forbin Project works very well.
If your terminal starts receiving nothing but junk
characters like:
[MT120O2BCDA+CP8L12CCC
and you heard no music then turn of music by typing
"M" until "OFF" is displayed on the scoreboard. You
may need to redraw your screen if it is filled with
junk characters.
L)ist players You can compare your bug killing abilities to other
would be Bug Bashers.
F)ire Perhaps the most important command of all! This
controls your poison pistol. If your TARGET bug is
in sight just press "F" to enter fire mode. Then
press the appropiate key on the 10-key pad to fire
your poison pistol in the correct direction.
Its that simple! If you press "F" by mistake too bad!
You must fire off a round! There is no safety on a
poison pistol.
Q)uit This key is for WIMPS and small children. This is
how you exit the game!
ADVANCED FEATURE!
"<" or ">" Speed adjustment. If you have an external modem you
adjust the send/receive ratio of your modem to optimize
your player movement "reaction time". For best results
adjust the receive rate until the RECEIVE light on your
modem stops flashing. Then back off one keypress so
your RECEIVE light just begins to flicker. You can
play around with this till it feels right.
That's all for now...... Go away and kill some bugs!
