Gagarin

Lieutenant colonel **Gagarin** was the commander of a Soviet space station that witnessed the destruction of Citadel Starstation in March 21, 1998 and the ensuing nuclear holocaust. Powerless to stop the carnage or return to Earth, the crew under his command decided on a suicide strike against Cheyenne Mountain, using the full weight of the station as a kinetic kill vehicle. The decision was made at 2015 hours on the day of the Great War, and descent maneuvers began shortly afterwards. However, air defenses around Cheyenne Mountain knocked the station off course, making it crash in the mountains of Yuma County, where nearly a century later it became a massive stockpile of raw materials and technology for the Scar Collectors.
Geiger counter

A **Geiger counter**, also called a **Geiger–Müller counter**, is a type of particle detector that measures ionizing radiation. They detect the emission of nuclear radiation: alpha particles, beta particles or gamma rays. A Geiger counter detects radiation by ionization produced in a low-pressure gas in a Geiger Müller tube. Each particle detected produces a pulse of current, but the Geiger counter cannot distinguish the energy of the source particles. Invented in 1908, Geiger counters remain popular instruments used for measurements in health, physics, industry, geology and other fields, because they can be made with simple electronic circuits.

In Wasteland, it is used to detect when you are getting close to irradiated squares on the map, such as the southern route to Darwin Village or the radioactive moat in Base Cochise. Christina comes equipped with one, so it is not necessary to buy one, though the Quartz Emporium sells them for $300 if you decide not to (H)ire her.

Hollywood Chamber of Commerce

The **Hollywood Chamber of Commerce** is the faction that runs Hollywood. While it is ostensibly an anarcho-capitalist town council to govern Hollywood, it is essentially an organization created to allow Heidi Hollander to be able to run the town "legitimately." There are five members: Heidi Hollander, Manny Wong, Jean Rambeau, George Lin, and Duke Schwag.

## Background

Her knowledge of Hollywood history and business acumen likely led Heidi to the idea of a chamber of commerce as the structure to use as a government body. Further, Hollywood is entirely dependent on several powerful merchants, so the idea that the "government" draws its power from local businesses rather than the people directly is entirely logical.

The HCC is able to support itself through the use of its armed wing the Hollywood Security Patrol which is "hired out" to local merchants. While this is essentially a protection scheme like most other towns in the wasteland, the actual day-to-day operations of the HCC and the HSP do actually resemble those of a chamber of commerce and private security force more than anything else. While there are many criticisms of the HCC, most residents of Hollywood appear to be satisfied with its governance.

**Highpool** is a location in *Wasteland*.

## Background

Main article: Highpool
Originally a summer camp for children, Highpool became a sheltered, safe town after the nuclear war. By 2087, it's a small town suffering from a water shortage on account of a broken water purifier, which requires an engine from the Rail Nomads to repair.

The camp consists of some two-story adobe buildings that resemble dorms, a playground with swings and slides and fields watered by canals that gets its water from the two feet deep Highpool Creek which flows through the settlement and ends in a small lake. A larger building in the center of the camp forms the Community Center. Most adults are absent, busy raiding outlaws prowling the surrounding areas, with children pretty much the only denizens Rangers are likely to meet.

## Points of interest

* There is a kid named Bobby in the south-west corner which can tell you about Jackie and the Cave and asks you not to kill his dog Rex. The Cave can be found at the western wall of the camp between two trees. You have to use the Perception skill on the spot to recognize the cave entry. Then you can use a rope to climb down.
* Kill the Rabid Dog, Rex, and rescue Jackie, who will become the party's first NPC. Before climbing the first heap of boulders, you can shed some light by using a Match on any of the squares that yield the message "Even here the cave is very dark"; this will have the effect of replacing the Rabid Dog with a weaker Spiked Mut.
* Inside the largest building is a community center. You can purchase supplies there, as well as barge into the camp intendent's office by breaching the door. Doing so causes the juvies in the hall to appear as viable targets. They drop the Mangler. Picking it up will reduce the reward for fixing Highpool's water purifier (Apple II version only).
* When you walk through the river then there are two spots where you can slip and fall into it. On each of these occasions some Brats appear laughing at you. When you kill them and pick up the loot more Brats are coming. Kill and loot them, too and then you encounter a Chubby Kid. Kill and loot again and now you are confronted by the Red Ryder who is sad and angry about you killing the children and starts firing at you with his Red Ryder Rifle. When you kill the Red Ryder and pick up the loot (Unfortunately not the rifle) then the camp is converted into a ghost town. The river and the lake dries out and the Shop, the Infirmary, the Workshop and the Community Center are closed.
* If you kill the Chubby Kid, an enemy named Red Ryder will appear. He is quite tough, but if you beat him he will drop a loot bag. If you grab that loot bag, **Highpool** will turn into a barren valley, and its doctor will vanish.
Info File

Back to file listing

## The INFO File

The INFO file is tiny, only two bytes. Each of the original disks would have held a different 'info' file. This file is read before any other files, to ascertain whether disk A or disk B is in the drive. The original game came on two 5 1/4" floppy disks. Since each disk could hold 360kB of data, this would allow just enough space for one of the GAME files, one of the ALLHTDS files, the executable and WLF files. When entering certain maps, the user would be requested to 'change disks'. Whenever the user re-entered an area on the other disk, they would have to 'swap back. It is assumed that some areas, such as the main map, will be found in both GAMEx files, to reduce the amount of disk swapping needed.

The file itself simply holds the letters "A" and "B" or, in the case of the RPG pack, the letter "C". Within the code of the game itself, most disk-reads are based on a conditional testing of this byte. "C" is used to denote the "Install to fixed disk" setup option. {Nick} What's actually tested in the code is whether it's 41h 'A' or42h 'B'. Any other character seems to trigger the 'Hard Disk' flag to be set in the code.

The 'info' file is loaded with code at cs:10E9. The drive ID is check starts at cs:1113. If it doesn't see an 'A' or 'B', it sets the use\_hard\_drive flag at ds:A414 to 1.

Of course, anyone who wants to 're-create' the floppy-disk feel of the game can split it into two again, and make two new info files, one for each disk.

Mindy spent an entire hour once talking about the furniture and wallpaper and Mistress Veronica’s preference for working out deals over a fancy dinner—or in her dungeon, depending on the problem to be solved—instead of the office of the brothel’s previous owner, Heidi Hollander. (Mindy talked about people long dead as if they were just in the other room, but she didn’t mind carrying the conversation during their walks so Angela could focus on getting used to her new prosthetic instead.)"*
