Prologue: Hobo glyphs? Combo lock?

[fractalnavel]

I haven't seen anything yet about the hobo glyphs or combination lock in the prologue. Solvable or not? Very spoilery.

The lock only becomes relevant if you take the robotics course at s.i.t. Hobo glyphs I have no idea

[flitchard]

They're just there for gags. You can ignore em

Tinfoil me kept thinking the glyphs would translate into the combination. And then I thought maybe one of the character building choices that give additional conversation options might include something to get you a hobo code level in the prologue. Or maybe some meta-time portal that dropped a character off in their own past.

This game makes me nuts.

The combination lock is relevant for one of your companion's vignette's later on in the game, you can also get a hobo as a companion and I assume the hobo code in Howie's boxcar might be relevant then too but I haven't gotten that far with him yet

I think the prologue hobo code was the exact reversal of the 1st hobo code you find. But I stopped paying attention to the actual glyphs themselves once the mechanic was revealed.
