different from its predecessors -
they are able to be transferred to the ZX-Spectrum.

people find it difficult, you can imagine
what it's like to achieve this from robots.
Many problems had to be solved when
organizing communication with ASPS. Regular radio
channels are good for oral negotiations, but

The eight-wheeled ASPS was far from the only
