I just noticed this section title in the released manual
3.9.4 Spare Parts Station

See if you can find it...

Is that the tiny thing near the top of page 11?

[Aidan F. Browne]

Perhaps its a clue of some sort? I wonder... hmmm... probrably not since it has nothing to do with water or fish. But then again...

Is that the tiny thing near the top of page 11?I think so. At least, that's what CTRL-F picked up. I'm hoping that the Team Update referred to fixes that size issue.

Oh, and Aidan: Is the game going to be related to "Honey, I Shrunk the Kids"?:p
