   Back in 1994 (when I was 16) I coded a door game idea by a fellow local sysop,   
   called Mission Control.  We had the game up and running on a few BBSs in my   
   area - and I may even had it on Door Distribution Network back in the day.   
      
   Fast forward to gray (and thinning) hair, and the start of all this   
   Coronavirus stuff, and I began working from home (still am, in fact).  While   
   browsing through some old files on my server, I stumbled across a ZIP file   
   that contained my original code.  After looking over it, I noticed several   
   logic errors, screens within the program that were never coded, etc.  Since I   
   still run my BBS, I thought it would be a fun pasttime to recode the game to   
   include all "logic" as part of the original game idea.   
      
   Thus, I present to you Mission Control 2.0f!   
      
   Description:   
   You've been hired by NASA to launch as many space shuttles as possible by the   
   end of the month.  You must secure budget money to build your shuttle piece by   
   piece, then have the launch team sign off on your inspection to be ready for   
   launch.  Watch the weather carefully, as it plays an important part to a   
   successful launch.  The player at the end of the month with the most   
   successful launches is deemed the "Expert Mission Control Director" of the   
   month, and play is reset for the next month.   
      
   Requirements:   
   x86 DOS/Windows/Emulation (is 16 bit EXE)   
   Direct COM/Fossil Driver Support   
   Multi-Node Compatible   
      
   Best of all, since this was my first game coded, I'm offering this game as   
   FREEWARE to the BBS Community.   
      
   Mission Control 2.0f can be downloaded from my BBS - Extreme BBS - at   
   telnet://extremebbs.bayvillewireless.com
