Re: Robot Odyssey

Hello Paul,

Use a clock chip, not the count to n one. And take into account that
the frecuencies are not multiple of each other. What i mean is that
the signals look like this:

1010101010101010   
1100110011001100
1110001110001110  and not 1111000011110000 !

That's why I got stuck on that one so long time!

Best Regards / Fernando

p.s. I'd really appreciate that someone could e-mail me a saved game 
in Ford pinto puzzle. When I was playing RO in my pc, I had a crash and
I had to restore everything from scratch, thus I've lost forever
my saved games.
