Minor Technical Difficulties

Pardon for my intermittent inactivity as of late.

What with school work, nice weather, and Portal 2, my heads been turned so many different ways I've gone made myself a little dizzy.

[Writing this in the middle of backlog tagging.]

Anywho, I'm still around, and will be tryin' to keep up. That's the main point.

Second point: if I wanted to take Mack on a roadtrip through Sacrosanct's sectors, how would be the best way to do this? Is the zone summary on the info page complete, or do places have additional features I should know about? [Does this mall have a directory?]

The zone summaries are only brief descriptions, as each zone is large enough to contain hundreds of "neighborhoods." Basically Sacrosanct is about an equivalent size to the Death Star and divided into 30ish quadrants, the Zones. They're big. If he wants to physically move through them he'll need a vehicle, and some of the Garden Zones feature wild territory that is not passable by conventional land vehicles. Practically he'd need to change vehicles or avoid certain Zones or areas within certain Zones using the teleportation consoles.

That's what I meant by "physically." If he wants to simply move through the holographic projector system, he can go anywhere he likes, except into some of the wilderness zones that are specifically designed to not have technology everywhere. Those would have projectors close to the teleporters and he'd probably have a decent range that he can project himself from, but he wouldn't be able to project everywhere within that zone. There would be some locations that would be out of range.
