Delivery Ship is the 7th level of ChipHomeIS.dat, a custom level set, mosty made of insane levels, by ChipHome5.

This level is based on data resetting, a knowledge of which is required in order to fully solve it. As there's no exit tile (there's actually one, but it is cancelled by 3 spawning gliders as soon as Chip starts moving), the player must perform, towards the end of the level, a proper y-coordinate data reset, in the right position, in order to generate a tile with index 21 (i.e. the exit). This, when performed correctly, will generate an exit tile under the chip socket in [10, 0].

In particular, after pushing the button in [28, 26], the player must move as fast as possible to [30, 21], before the cloned glider reaches the clone button in [26, 22], which is connected to [10, 32], i.e. resetting the one byte data related to the y-coordinate of Chip.

If the player is located in [30, 21] when the data reset happens, Chip's y-coordinate will be 21, thus a tile with index 21 will generated in the lower layer of [10, 0], due to how data resetting works. Afterwards, Chip's y position will be reset to 0 and Chip will find himself in [30, 0], where the player can gather the yellow key and head towards the chip socket in [10, 0], which should hide an exit tile.

This is also the first level showcasing what happens when the Chip's x or y position is reset while standing on a hint tile: the position will be changed (setting to 0 either the x or y coordinate), but the game won't record this as stepping out from the hint tile, thus displaying a perpetual hint message throughout all the level, hiding the inventory and the number of chips left.

Delivery Ship was one of the CC Zone Award Levels.
