The Good Samaritan (T2) Dec. 17/05

[clearing]

Great news

[gnartsch]

I did some work on the next version, but you know me and Dromed! We just don't get along!

However, I'm working on a new FM! THIS ONE WILL GET FINISHED!

So, will there be an update on "The good Samaritan" ?
I just can't get the fuel tank blow off - even after using 20 water arrows on the generator high above.
If I understand correct, then this should allow me to go South and finish the mission.

dml which adds a task notification to completed quests.

gamesys dml to fix a climbing bug (if new_mantle is enabled, that's the default setting nowadays).

Thanks Unna

This mission is Sooooo much more easily understood now you know what you are doing and achieving, with the dml your basically playing blind.

I need help with finishing this mission on Expert. I found key and I completed loot objective, but I have no idea where is escape point. Do I need to complete every quest? And if yes, can I finish this mission if I don't trigger any quest?

Speaking about quests:
1. I couldn't complete voodoo symbols quest. Last symbol supposed to be above some umbrella. I never discovered any umbrella anywhere. Is this mean ice cream shop little roof? I didn't notice any symbol there. I also checked 3 green lamps that looks like small umbrellas and there is nothing. I have no idea where is the symbol.
2. I blown machine above gasoline. Why did I need to do that?
3. Who killed Dewdrop? I read book on chair in Apartment twice and I just got new objective. No idea what to do here.
4. And what about Spiderman mask? I have it, but it acts as junk. In walkthrough it's written that I need to put it on desk in room where I read about need of mask. But there is only table and nothing happens after putting mask on it.

Edit: All right, I managed to find last voodoo symbol - it was in area with ice cream shop, on building west from table, you need 2 crates to reach it. This completed the mission and I realized that escape objective is really misleading. It should be called - "complete all extra quests". It doesn't help that game doesn't tell what action complete what task, sometimes it doesn't even tell that I completed a task (Spiderman task, Dewdrop task).
