Great work!
Should the two entries (Discovery and Escape) in our database be merged into one?
If you want to run this two-player, you can do so with BeebEm: Install ncat for your OS, run "ncat -l -k --broker -p 25232". Then start two copies of BeebEm. Go to Comms -> Select RS423 Destination and set it to 127.0.0.1:25232 in both copies, then Comms -> RS423 On/off in both copies. Now insert the game disk (do not boot!) and run CH."S" on one of the machines, then boot the same disk on the other machine. Launch Escape from Solaris and answer Y to the question whether you want to play by cable. Voila!
