Subject: Re: The mystery of "Willy Takes a Trip" - SOLVED!

 

OK, I've done it. After referring back again to Geoff's text file, I discovered, thanks to a hint in it, that the teleporter which takes you to "Iain's Stomach" is at the bottom-right corner of "The Hideaway". I think it must be activated only at a certain point in the game, because the teleportation doesn't happen when you first collect the items there (AFAICT without double checking).
The rest - clearing the zone which pertains to a certain recreational herb of items - was easy enough. I hereby certify that Willy Takes a Trip is toilet-completable.
I have completed the game using the Rollback feature of the ZX Spin emulator. I will now have to re-record it nicely for the RZX Archive, after meditating on the most efficient route (quite a big challenge, too).
Thanks once again to Andrew and John for their help, and to Geoff for his tips in the text file and - most of all - for creating this riveting, delightful challenge!!! :-)
Daniel
