So, with no interesting destinations in the destination guide, I decided to finally brave the lag, once more, and visit Tralala’s Diner… imagine my shock when I couldn’t do that because it doesn’t seem to exist, any more! I pulled up Tralala Loordes’s profile and used the LM in that, still got the ‘destination doesn’t exist’ message. I was stunned, Tralala’s Diner has been my most hated (for it’s rage-inducing lag) fabulous destination for years, I’d gotten used to it! I noticed in Tralala’s ‘picks’ that there was a diner in Insilico, something I’d never known, so I tp’d here, only to find an empty lot. When I re-checked the address in the profile, I realised it had ‘deleted’, or something, written at the end of the description. Oh, well, I was back in Insilico with nothing better to do, so I headed off in a random direction…
… I started heading up. I saw these stairs in the distance, and didn’t remember ever having climbed them (you can’t fly in Insilico), so I headed for them…
… up and up I went…
… and up and up…
… till I was as high as I’ve ever been, here. I could see stairs leading down, again, on the other side of the landing platform I’d arrived on, and headed back down…
… they took me to this elevator platform. As this is a ‘no-fly’ sim, these kinds of hieghts are pretty intimidating. Even though falling won’t kill you, knowing how long it would take to get back up to where you fell from adds a certain verisimilitude to the feeling of being dangerously high. I called the elevator…
… and rode it down, a very long way… to the empty lot I’d arrived in!
