Thanks for all the nice comments.
The idea behind creating these areas is partly to create a realistic live feeling. That there are more activity going on in the city which has nothing to do with the mission. And that you can't get to everything. Also, there is a purpose of fooling the player a bit. I know you shouldn't do that to much, becuase you will aggravate and annoy people. But just to make the player stop for a little while and wonder if it's possible to explore that area. I'm not sure I've succeeded in this attempts, but that's what I tried.

What is my problem??? I cannot get out of the well. Doesn't matter where I put the rope arrow, doesn't matter which side of the well I use to jump to, or how close to the cross bar on the top I am. Never had this happen before.
Never mind!!! 3rd try after I posted it worked.

OK, cool. Yeah, I agree its a good idea to create the illusion of a living city. As you recognize, there is a fine line, however.
Anyway, 2 areas I am still stuck in:
[spoiler]
1. Can't find the key for the gate leading into the ruined/spooky area.
2. Couldn't find the key for the room 1 in the hotel
Note: I've already put the evidence on the police cheif's desk. Don't yet have the dark or light scrolls
[/spoiler]

[spoiler]1. There is no key. Use explosives.
2. The hotel manager's scribbled note gives a 'clue' as to where to look.[/spoiler]

Could you just outright spoil me, please? :) I did read that note earlier and thought I should look
[spoiler]
on the ground in the alley outside the hotel with the vine overgrowth and 3 trashcans. But I found nothing
[/spoiler]
Thank you, in advance.

[spoiler]Ah, you want the whole shebang? :cheeky: The guys were playing cards in the hotel lobby and dropped the key next to the chair[/spoiler]

Playing on easy but so far have not been to locate a sword anywhere. Any clues will be appreciated. Also, in "spider tunnel" have been to the end but cannot get through hole to proceed Is there some trick to this?
Thanks for any help. . .

Sword:
Hint1
Search the gamblers house next to the hotelHint2
Search the room with a deskHint3
Frob switch under desk. That should do itI don't understand the problem with the spider tunnel. There is really no hole to get through. Maybe you could clearify this a bit.
