TAC Forums are down, so I'll post this here

For the five you you who still read Bugs, I haven't updated this week because I rendered myself into a corner. The script says Fly enters the A/C. No problem, I thought, until I actually started to compose the scene.

The A/C the Bugs are on is a hollow shell. It has no guts. To show Fly's adventures, I now have to build the interiors of the A/C.

...

Maybe not. I have to think about this.

I know it's late to the party, but there really isn't a shortcut through the inside of an AC unit. I've been inside a hundred or so. Find a gap around the unit.

If it doesn't have a fresh air exchange damper door (which is now rare) and the filter and grille missing or ajar, there is a sealed barrier. They would have to crawl through the very small condensate drain which is usually underwater from a shallow P-trap.

The Bugs have to be splashproof, but I don't know about IP56 fully waterproof...

The A/C is a window unit mounted in the wall, not a split unit. The one I have at work has a fresh-air vent that pulls in fresh air from outside and runs it over the cooler. With the vent closed it recirculates the air.
