How do you solve the breaker box puzzle in utility closet?

those colored lights do they do anything?

Read emails in terminal.

Do you get access to emails after entering the terminal code? I have no idea what the code is. I got a specific result by just playing with those lights in utility room, but I don't know what that does. XD

Did you manage to get anything out of the VAC Lights just by playing around? That would be pretty impressive because it's very specific on one part.

1) I clicked them all once, they were all green.
2) Then I clicked one and it turned blue, I clicked a button next to my blue one and it turned red (green buttons turn red after clicking them once if you have one blue already).
3) And when I had blue button next to the red button, I clicked blue one and it turned purple. 4) So I tried to make them all purple, it's easy if in the step 2 you click green button on the second position from the left.
5) After they were all purple I tried clicking every button and I discovered that if you click the first button from the left (when they are all purple) it is glowing (I guess white) and it stays that way even if you click it again.
But when you click any other purple button, they turn glowy, but you can click them again to make them purple again.

So I guess at the end the first button is staying glowy and does something?

It's not only the first button that glows, any buttion you press when all are purple starts glowing white. And if you press it again it reverts to purple.
Also:
- pressing a blue button converts the ones next to it to blue
- pressing green turns it to red
- pressing red next to another red/purple turns it purple
Maybe a combination of colors? Gotta try that.

When you unlock the white colour, you need to find specific permutation of lights, (you have 1 chance in 720) so without hint from terminal it's tedious.

Oo, I see. I tried to click glowing buttons and playing with them but I already spent too much time on that demo, so I just left it.

I thought you solved the puzzle by accident, because that would be incredibly impressive.

Eitherway there's the solution to be found out there. Good luck

I got the office room and utility together and I tried completing the lights sentence. I did it, it's actually pretty simple after you have full purple line.

Or SCP lol

I was super stumped by this because, based on the way the puzzle seems to function it would be impossible, but once you have 5 purple lights, you can keep clicking the last one and it will cycle through to purple.
