The Trouble with Tiddlets, Part 3: Difference between revisions

Line 7:

Dr. Swanson explains that the Hop Drive ship is essential for the next research phase, as Tiddlets also reproduce during hops. Due to its high cost, he urges the player to negotiate the price and offers a bonus for successful bargaining.

The available options depend on the player’s choices made during [[Black Hole Sun, Part 3#Paths|Black Hole Sun, Part 3]].

After acquiring the ship, the player is tasked with pairing it with the Institute’s Tiddlet farm and performing several hops. The player must continue jumping until there are 500 Tiddlets on the farm. At this point, the modified FTL drive is fried, but Dr. Swanson is confident his engineers can repair it. He wants the repaired drive installed directly on the farm ship. The FTL drive on the Hop Drive ship is then replaced with a conventional FTL drive.

Dr. Swanson then discusses how many crystals can now be produced from a single jump and requests a series of very long-range jumps. The Tiddlet bodies are to be returned to him.
