One of the strengths of this program, compared to others, is that it fits on one magnetic card. That also means that you can play the game on a 67/97 whose card reader is no longer working once you’ve keyed it in.
The game is played on a 100 x 100 grid, with coordinates given as XX.XX and YY.YY.
1) To start the game, input a decimal seed and press A. Displayed value is the Enterprise’s coordinates.
2) To run a sensor scan for enemy ships, press B. Displayed values will be a) Enemy ship #, b) Distance, c) Bearing (* Note: a, b and c will be repeated for all ships that might be in range *), d) Damage to the Enterprise (since enemy ships always fire when detected, even though the Enterprise’s shields will automatically go up in this situation), and e) the Enterprise’s coordinates again.
3) To move the Enterprise, input the Angle, press ENTER and input the Warp Speed desired, and press C. Displayed value is the new coordinate for the Enterprise. (Note: Speed is from 1-8, but does not have to be an integer. You cannot move greater than warp 8. Movement in grid units is 10 * Warp number. If you have more than 50% damage, you are limited to Warp 4. Angle is from 0 to 180 and 0 to -180, with 0 being to the right (or east), 90 being up (or north), 180 being left (or west), and -90 being down (or south). You may also input the angle from 0 to 360. Picture the playing area as a 100 x 100 grid).
4) Before going into battle, you should put some energy into the shields by entering the Energy to Shields and pressing D. Output number is Shield Energy.
5) To attack, you must be within attacking distance, which is 1/2 the sensor distance. (Note: Default sensor distance is 25 units). You can only attack one enemy at a time. To attack, enter the ship number to be attacked and press E. Output number is in the form of ZZZ.ZZ which is the remaining shield energy. Then you must enter the phaser power to be used in the attack with a number from 1 to 9 and pressing R/S.
Outputs from the attack are: a) Enemy damage, b) Enterprise Damage, c) Enterprise Coordinates, and d) Enemy ship number. If the display stops with the Enemy ship number displayed as a negative, then the enemy has been destroyed. If the Enterprise coordinates are displayed again, then you were out of attack range.
Note: If you ever see 0.00 blinking in the display, it means you have run out of energy and have lost the game.
6) To recall the damage for any ship, enter the ship number of the enemy ship (1-3) or the Enterprise (4) and press f-shift b.
7) To repair damage to a ship, enter the ship number and press STO I (Note: that is not the lower case letter but the upper case). Enter the amount of damage to be repaired as a negative number and press shift-f c. The output displayed is the ship’s coordinates.
8) To recall the Enterprise’s coordinates at any time, press GSB 0.
9) To recall total energy remaining, press RCL 8.
10) To recall shield energy remaining, press RCL 6.
11) To check the range for the sensors, press RCL 0.
That’s it. Quite a long list of instructions, but then, the Captain’s job is never easy.
Enter Press See Description
0.5281953751 A 84.28 This is the enterprise’s coordinates.
B Scan for enemy vessels
84.28 Enterprise’s coord’s returned.
No vessels nearby.
180 ENTER 4 C 44.28 Let’s move 180 degrees at warp 4
B 1. Scan. Enemy ship #1 found
22. 22 units away
137. at a bearing of 137 degrees
4. Enterprise’s ship number. No damage.
44.28 Enterprise’s coord’s returned.
137 ENTER 1.8 C 31.40 Enterprise’s new coord’s.
Note: if we scan again now, we’ll be
fired on again, so let’s assume we
did that right and fire ourselves.
110 D 110.00 Set our shields to 110. Don’t forget!
1 E 102.58 Attack ship #1. Our shields went down
to 102.58 (very slight hit).
9 R/S 11.92 Now fire phasers at max power (9)
1.86 11.92 was damage done to enemy, our
31.40 damage was only 1.86, our coord’s.
1 E 32.27 Fire again. Remaining shields.
9 R/S 29.10 Damage to enemy
17.58 Our damage
31.40 Our coord’s again
4 f b 23.40 This is our cummulative damage. 23%.
4 STO I Let’s repair some of our damage.
6 CHS f c 31.40 Repaired 6 units
4 f b 17.40 Damage was repaired
1 f b 41.02 Enemy damage
100 D 132.27 Replenish Shields. Don’t forget this!
1 E 77.17 Remaining shields
9 R/S 2.37 Damage to enemy
13.77 Our Damage
31.40 Our coord’s
75 D 152.17 Replenish shields
1 E 107.08 Remaining shields
9 R/S 26.09 Damage to enemy
11.27 Our damage
