The map in the terminal image is incorrectly oriented. It should be flipped vertically
and then horizontally to obtain the correct orientation.
In the second screen of this terminal message the miscellaneous text at the start $3C is caused
by a typing error during development. The code $C3 should have been used instead of $3C
to set the terminal text color to green. Indeed it wasn't actually needed and reflects a late change to the text before release.
It has been reinstated here for authenticity. Thanks to wrkncacnter on Discord for spotting this.

If there is an armpit to the Lh'owon garrison, this is it. Perimeter Station 7AF
is separated from the Pfhor concept of civilization by 200 klicks of filth-ridden
swamp, choked with a thousand hungry F'lckta and as many years of S'pht debris.
It's also home to the Science Unit responsible for maintaining the water treatment
facility for Planetary Command, and all of the Eastern Emplacements. My little
group of humans can't hope to succeed unless the Pfhor ranks are in chaos. Sinking
them under five meters of sludge should do the trick.

$3CThe base was established early in the recent wave of exploration of the planet,
but operations were later moved north because of heavy surface radiation that
interferes with transporters. The local soldiery are charged primarily with
exterminating the F'lckta, who defend their ancestral wetlands with agonizing
tenacity.

Find a Pfhor terminal with technical access to the main treatment plant, and we'll
look for a weakness.
This Resupply Platform is likely to be checked regularly by the Pfhor living here,
so you'll want to get out of the open quickly.
Good luck. I'll transport in ammunition when I can, but we're spread thin. The
scoutship spotted our trick with the Armor Platform and is closing fast. I'll
have to teach its captain a lesson.
Poor Engineer 1st Class K'all. Demoted to Engineer 3rd Class K'all.

Their activity cycle coincides with the period of gestation of their young, which are
carried to term in the maw of the creature for a period of 15-19 local days. While
the mandible appears to have vestigial musculature indicative of mastication and
forceful ingestion consistent with a predator, the gizzard terminates in a womb
rather than the digestive tract.

As field observations and several post-mortem examinations of fallen combatant members

The foreclaw and maw are both used for territorial competition and display, as the

At the beginning of the mating cycle, approximately each 17th local day, the creatures
release a cloud of eggs into their territorial waterway and begin a traverse of the
surrounding region, battling with their neighbors for passage.
Each creature swallows any eggs it finds during its circuit, with more dominant
creatures gaining access to a greater variety of eggs. The eggs are drawn into

St'ngr has been responsible for the disappearing Compilers and now you know why.
Throw him into the crusher and see how he likes it. Note that you can actually do this

This first 'unfinished' message is not displayed

You can bypass the Compiler crusher lab and the all important terminal with the schematic

You must access all the terminals in the local network for
information on the water treatment center.
The scoutship was a trifle, but we've got bigger problems now. Long range sensors
show several hundred discrete masses translating into the system. The Pfhor navy
has arrived. Another thing--I've intercepted a signal from the disabled scoutship
that leads me to believe that Tycho is in league with the bugs. Be careful.
When you get to the end terminal you can actually jump out of the
window and explore the river below. There is a second underwater teleporter
that will teleport you back to the area outside the Compiler crusher lab.
You can see both teleports here.
Note the terminal on the other side of the river. That is the start of the next
