Tesla Effect: A Tex Murphy Adventure Hints
So how do I get past the bees?
1 of 9: You need four items, two from the third floor and two from the fourth floor.
2 of 9: Get the recharged mech battery from Defense Engineering on the third floor --
3 of 9: -- the gas mask from Medical on the third floor --
4 of 9: -- the live bug bomb from the entrance to the executive suite on the fourth floor --
5 of 9: -- and the fire extinguisher from Satellite Access on the fourth floor. Save your game, then let's go.
6 of 9: First, use the bug bomb on the first hallway of bees. This will keep all the bees quiet, as long as you're careful not to step on them.
7 of 9: Go straight, then left, then right just before the queen. Here's the dead mech you saw on the control screen in Defense Engineering.
8 of 9: Insert the mech battery in the mech (the compartment is on its left leg). Boom! and the mech is once again dead, so let's move on.
9 of 9: Use the fire extinguisher to put out the fire and step on into the auxiliary power room. You can ignore the four-legged spiders in here; they're atmosphere only. (They're probably ashamed about the mutation that got rid of their other legs.)
