- Assuming, for the sake of argument, that your dog ate the map, I can
- tell you this:
-
- There is a map on the mayor's desk. You can use that for reference.
- You can buy a sextant (or steal one, if you're so inclined) from the
- shipwright in town. Use the sextant at various points in Trinsic to get
- some perspective of the size of the town and the size of the world.
-
- The grid of the map is laid out in 30-degree increments. All of your
- answers should be 0, 30, 60, 90, 120, or 150 degrees. If you've done
- your measuring and estimating properly, you can get buy.
-
-
- If your dog DIDN'T eat the map, buy the game. If you loaned your copy
- to someone else for a while, get it back. You'll soon need the docs
- anyway.
