~ hey <INTERN NAME> ~ be careful when you boot your computer this morning ~ I left a cartridge in the slot: Intermediate Ideocartography ~ it’s kind of dangerous, but <REDACTED> did the same for me when I was an intern, and I think it’s a major reason why I survived here ~ you have to be willing to take risks ~ some notes about the cart: ~ a. it’s more complicated than the Beginner cart. You can use the arrow keys to move the map directly, gives you more control ~ b. you can also hop from seed to seed in the metalayers, use the mod key (Z) AND the arrow keys to do that ~ there’s an entropy network in place to prevent seed adjacency ~ you’re going to be frustrated but it’s for your protection ~ you can still get to any seed, just some are difficult ~ <REDACTED> ~ <REDACTED> ~ c. now the X button takes screenshots by default, but also saves a gif if you hold the mod button ~ d. you can press enter to get to a menu that lists the controls as well, now that text is permitted that kind of <REDACTED> ~ happy hunting, and be safe! ~ PS: if you find any <REDACTED> in there, msg me directly ASAP
