> > I need to get the Spiffy-Cola for the brat, but I think I'm going to need to get a sledgehammer first to knock down the pillar. The Engineer guy is on my side and he wants me to figure out how we can catch a flight to Earth, since the ISO is blocking Docking Bay A. I've read some earlier posts about getting the sledgehammer, and they mentioned certain areas of the mines were different "colors" such as yellow. I would like to know what this means. I'm pretty sure I haven't explored all of the mines yet, but since I'm horrible at making maps, I would really appreciate it if somebody could e-mail me a map of the mines. Here's my inventory. I have 46 items-I counted them.

> You need to get to the color-specific part you mentioned. The key is to notice that a timed event starts when you jump from a rapidly moving mine cart in one area. The mine cart can get to a certain area from there while you continue on foot, but you can actually catch up to it if you do it quickly. From there, you'll see why you needed to keep the cart from getting away. Hope that helps.

Is this an area where you get off the mine cart but you can still hear it rolling around?

By the way, I have replaced three of the rubber tubes in the kitchen. I just can't seem to get the one near my room. I have already helped the miner with the broken wheel-I'm assuming he doesn't give you the sledgehammer?
