Torus Puzzle

[Neogenex]

Whoever made this a thing should be tared and feathered. This is by far the most tedious and aggravating puzzle I have ever done in a game. Period. Can I get some help on this nightmare? While I sit struggling with this nightmare I have no control over any of my ships or stations. Seriously, the worst design I have ever saw.

Hope you saved before you mucked it all up lol.

I think it would have been much better inside an airlock instead of floating in the space suit IMO.
Tip at least get teleport 1 research done before doing this one.

This sort of puzzle is very common in games.

Multiple switches where one also flips two others. Often there's one switch that flips only one switch and not two, and that's usually the way you solve it. Learn the connections, try to set state in such way that you can set three switches at one into desired state.

I just did this for the first time like last week. The part that tripped me up (until I got outside help) is how you have to go back and unflip switches you already flipped to make progress forward with your ship.

It's setup a lot like similar puzzles in other games, as @Doom said, it just didn't occur to me at first to revisit previously flipped switches. What's funny is that is also a mechanic in the final puzzle, and when you get to that it actually gives you that advice...I could have used the advise sooner. LOL

I kept going through some loop at the beginning. I thought the initial hall was kilometers long. lol I had to look it up. The final area wasnt as hard for me as that first section.

Never found the Torus terribly difficult.

I think I parked the Owl too centrally and was less willing to use the suit thrusters. I just returned to the owl regularly to top up the tanks. Instuctions to the fleet needed to be done from the suit rather than the ship due to the camouflage.

Trying to solve a 9x9 SUDOKU to progress?!.

First switch 3 and 6 --> Firewall kicks in
Now switch 5, 2, 8 --> Mission complete
