Please look at the map below the hints, which i made in ascii, it shows the
positions described in the hints ...

For  those  of  you  who  are  not  accustomed  to playing strategy trading
adventure games here are a few hints and tips to help you get started.

Problem: No money to trade.

Your  crew  is  poor, very poor.  To get your first credits fly down to the
city  of  Penthe  on  Planet  Castra  and walk to position 1.  Talk to Greg
Morgan  and  ask  him  what he is doing here.  You cannot help him now, but
just  walk  around  and try to pass position 2.  Two rowdies are beating an
old man, called George Mc Mil.  Beat them up and help George.  Then talk to
him.  He offers you 1500 credits and his telephone number (write it down!).
Now  you can start to make money travelling with the Whale, but it's easier
to  continue  in  Penthe.   Walk to position 3, take the little girl Winnie
with  you and see Walter Wim, her father, in his shop at position 4.  After
you return Winnie to him he offers you some weapons for your trouble.  Take
the guns and load them.  When you leave the shop, a thief tries to get your
reward.   Fight and kill him and the police will give you 3000 credits.  Go
to Max Flesh at position 5 and ask him for a job (be careful!).  Accept the
mission by taking the heart he puts on the counter.  Beam up to escape from
the  killers  who  also  want the heart.  Call George Mc Mil.  He helps you
shrink  Greg  Morgan.  Beam down again and go to Greg at position 1, shrink
him  and don't forget to take the CD.  Now fly to Lapis and search for Jack
Nock.   He  will  give  you  100000 credits for bringing the heart.  Now it
should be easy to start trading.

When you have got enough money and extras for the Whale go to Jack Nock and
try to solve the other 97% of the game.
