Missile silo activation- Once you get the Nevada Secret Base, go over the hill
between the lazer cannons they wont hit you if you get it right. Once over go
over to the main building and go throgh it, exit out of the ramp and go around
the silo where the light signal is at. If it is red go back through the main
building and exit out the other side checking that signal as well, if you did
it right one side of the signal lamp should be red and the other green, go
through it and a missile should exit out of the silo and onto your enemy's
car. Be carefull not to destroy the main building, if you do, you can't do
it....Good Luck.

GAME BUGS TO EXPLORE:

Out of all the weird glitches in Vigilante 8, I have picked 2 to share.

1.  In just about any level, with the UFO, you can get out of all the main
fighting areas, it just takes time.  In every level there are borders (usually
high edges that you can't get past.)  With the UFO, you can get past these
borders, it just takes a minute.  Just find a border where you can see
everything ahead of you (lot's of space) and keep gunning your motor, until
you finally get past the borders.  It takes a while, but it is worth it,
because no one can get you if you are a dozen miles away!

2.  With a car, you can fly for quite some time, and you only need a couple
homing missles!  Just do the secret move that lets you use them to rocket you
ahead, when you are at the base of a cliff.  After a couple tries, you may
find Vigilante 8 screwing up, and letting you get MAJOR altitude.  I can do it
any time I want.  The best place to do this is at the canyonlands.

WIND MILL BLADE:

when your in the farm level go to the wind mills (any one will work) and
wait till your enemy is fairly close (he can be anywhere but the closer he
is the better it will work) then shoot the wind mill until it explodes and
the blade of the wind mill will hit your enemy.
