    Poseidon Plaza - fun gimmick

    There are lots of goodies in some of the display windows, but when you break the glass there will be a couple of security bots sent out to punish you for vandalism.

    Just break the glass and hurry back to the bot shutdown panel (or stand by the panel and shoot out the glass with the pistol). When the flyers show up, hit the shutdown and the bots are disabled. Then go hack them and you now have a couple of helpers.

    (This is probably not new, but I just learned it).

    Dont forget to smash ALL those shop windows (with only 1 alarm) so you have lotsa goodies to pickup later.

    Also you can smash the health stations for free medkit (think theres a bug because Ive sometimes seen 3 medkits piled up when returning to the area (or maybe was after saves/loads)

    I think it's random, 1-3 med kits. Possibly the likelihood of getting more med kits depends on the difficulty setting. I always hack health stations (unless I really need a free med kit, which I rarely do) at least until later in the game, when it gets too hard, even with all the right tonics, to be worth the effort. Then I destroy them instead, to prevent splicers from using them.

    I usually run in 'sight seeing mode' lateley and Ive seen 2 and 3 kits piled up when I remember seeing only one when i busted the machine. Im not sure what causes it (reload game level). They might have some kind of reset event that triggers it when the level is initialized on load (kinda like the Bot Shutdown - you just get within view of it the first time and you see the actuating arm swing down)
