Error message and help/support subforum

Info portions are sections of code that cause things to happen within the game. They are usually called automatically by the game as it progresses, but sometimes things go wrong. If the game does not call an info portion when it should, key game events may not be triggered.

The Info Spawn Menu enables the player to call info portions manually. However, using the wrong info portion, or using one before you are supposed to, can seriously mess up your game. Make a hard save first, just in case!

- Open the Spawn Menu with ESC then S;
- Click the Info tab;
- Info portions are listed in alphabetical order and spread over four pages. Use the large left-right arrows to navigate between the pages;
- Find the info portion that you need, and click on it;
- Click OK, then EXIT.

You should see a message telling you whether the info portion has done anything. If it says the info portion has been removed, it usually means that the game has already used that info portion. Try a different one.

There is a link to a list of info portions here: [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]
