Riven: The Sequel to Myst Hints
How do I operate the sub controls?
1 of 4: There are basically three things you can do: turn the sub 180 degrees, move it forward, and select the branch to take when you reach a fork in the path.
2 of 4: The wheel in the top-center of the controls turns you around.
3 of 4: The lever on the right moves the sub forward one stop in the path.
4 of 4: And the slider in the center, below the wheel, will select the destination at a fork. You won't notice any effect from moving this slider until you move forward at a fork -- you take the left path when the lever's on the left, and the right one when the lever's on the right.
