Paradise Hints
The fish are moved. Now what?
1 of 7: Now go back to the controls and drain the pool.
2 of 7: The big lever on the right side of the control booth does that; give it a yank. Now go look at the control panel. Hmm. It doesn't look that complicated, does it?
3 of 7: Oh, you know better than that -- of COURSE it's complicated. The smaller hand shows the orientation of the bridge; you want it to point up. When you move the larger hand (by clicking on the hashmark where you want it to go and then pulling the large switch at right), the smaller hand and thus the bridge move --
4 of 7: -- but they don't move to the place where you moved the large hand, but by some other rule. OH what fun.
5 of 7: I tried to figure out how each mark moves the bridge, with limited success. If you label the hashmarks 1 to 9 left to right, here's what I got: 1 - two right; 2 - nothing; 3 - two left; 4 - two right; 5 - nothing; 6 - four left or right; 7 - nothing; 8 - four right; 9 - nothing. The smaller hand starts at 4, and you want to move it to 5. So you're going to have to move it past the point you're aiming for, then back again.
6 of 7: There are probably lots of ways to do this, but here's what I ended up with:
7 of 7: Click on the 6 hashmark, then pull the switch. Click on the 3 hashmark and pull the switch again.
