Using this solution for part 2:

GET COMPUTER does not work: there is no computer in the location (and I can't find one nearby: hard to tell though because of lots of identical "bleak wasteland" locations).

There's no way I'm playing a Softel game, but the computer is marked on this map...

Indeed. This one needs a strong breakfast.
Incidentally, quite a few solutions are incorrect as they are written, but many times it's because of game version differences. Others have typos or skip some obvious steps. I normally write down corrections on my notes but rarely submit them, assuming everyone else will likewise join the dots. Maybe I should reconsider this stance, but time is finite and games with no solutions are a greater priority for me.

Yes, please! If you take notes anyway, you'd be doing everyone else a great service.

If I read the map correctly it suggests that you keep going north repeatedly from the life boat to get to the computer. (Not sure why some links between rooms are marked with single or double arrows, and others have no arrow. The map has no key.)
That does not appear to work.
So I will upload part 1 solution only to the RZX Archive. Thanks anyway. Hope posterity can fix the solution

Objects on the map are listed at the SE corner of rooms, not SW corners. You can see that the "Steps" location has the object "rope" by its lower-right corner. The same goes for the rest, so the right location is the one immediately to the left of the one you are trying to reach.
My notes say that immediately after climbing out of the pit you need to go N, W, N, N, N for the computer. The solution says N, N, N, W, N instead, which is wrong.

Is there any mechanism by which you can correct the error
