I just ran another character up to the "Ta-Koro Ensign" point, and hit the bug. The Quarry key was Lewa's.

Very Impressive! I have just been learning about real automatic transmissions in school, and they are based on planetary gear sets. Depending on which ring gear is locked, you get different ratios. I never would have thought of using differentials (...) (23 years ago, 30-Nov-01, to lugnet.technic)
