Can someone give me hints for 2 puzzles.

[Corlain]

I really liked this game, but I stopped playing it because I got totally stuck in 2 puzzles over a year ago. I wouldn't really want to read a walkthrough either, but it would be nice if someone could hint a bit at what I'm missing in these 2 spots...

One is the thing where you're supposed to open a door by drawing lines between 2 nodes according to a number combination you've been given. I've tried every way I can think of to do this, but the door isn't opening...

When I got stuck there, I flew to a different planet where I'm supposed to find a specific rock formation. Again, I don't have the slightest idea what I'm even supposed to be looking for. There's only one place which looks even slightly like the picture, and it's not accepted as the answer...

for the first puzzle you want to find the codes/numbers first, they'll tell you how many lines should be connected to each node.

if the second one is what I think it is, you're looking at the planet from above and you have to slowly scan the area to find the formations. check each puzzle's instructions before giving them a go, they help a lot.

I don't recall that door puzzle.

You can zoom in and out on the flyover! Since it's not a straight match (the map won't look exactly like the 3D view), it's kinda hard to figure out. I needed two goes at this before it clicked for me.

Still looking for the door puzzle info?
Hint for that: Did you notice that there are either commas or semicolons between the numbers? There is a difference in what they mean.

any one know how to keep the beacons on ??/

[Sun_S]

You can't keep them on.
For the first part, do pay attention to which ones stay on the longest and start those first. It can help to also memorize which cell to energize for each beacon.
For the second part, just be fast.

Never found that rock, so I used walkthrough to catch it. Probably my eyes are bad...

[Corlain]

I did actually manage to find it after posting this, but it was annoying as hell.

As annoying as the "decrypt numbers to letters" puzzle. I fu***** hated that one. Luck, not skill is needed.
