Copernicus ASE Light Puzzle, ridiculously confusing!

[strykerpsg]

Absolutely enjoyed this game to this point. Made it into the maintenance bay, released the ASE into the platform and tried for 3 days to figure out this ridiculous puzzle. Never made it. Interesting no one seems to be able to explain it via a walkthrough, they all just happen to eventually get the right sequence.

Best of luck with this puzzle all. Made it far enough to feel accomplished but not going to put anymore energy into figuring it out.

Ehmm which puzzle do you exactly mean. I had no problem with Copernicus tho.
So I may be able to help :)

The 4 lighted posts that the ASE must interact with. I tried studying the combinations but just could not figure it out.

Your help greatly appreciated, so thank you

[MrTroble]

Gimmi some time I'll check it out again

[MrTroble]

So it took me around 7 minutes to do it I will upload the video. I'd know if it is helpful tho. The key thing is to seperate the middle and the outer ones.

What personally helps me to complete it from any combination is to remember that the first scanner activates the first 3 generators while all the rest are only linked to 2 of them.

From the default starting point one of the quickest combinations is to activate post 2, 3, 4, 4.

I hope this helps!

You both are fantastic! I still fail to see the pattern, but it worked and now onto the final minutes of the game. I hope they release more content, but please make some puzzles make sense...this step just totally made no sense in either the story line nor the hints along the way.

Thank you both again.

Not too difficult, just follow the path of the lights. Only thing I didn't like is didn't know what color to make them.

That was the same issue I had as well. I did indeed trace what went where, but the color thing absolutely threw me into orbit.

Actually they have established this color schema all over the place, so if you pay close attention then you will see this all over the doors / controls even in the monitors
blue -> working good
yellow -> warning not good
red -> error not good either
This is a well thought pattern in my opinion :)

You're right....just played straight through for a bit long. Was tired and got frustrated by this point is all. Enjoyed the puzzles overall and love the purchase for what it is.

Each switch has two or three cables. They can easily be seen through the ASE's x-ray eyes.
Each cable leads to one of the four devices; all devices have multiple cables coming from different switches.

Each time you trigger a switch an impulse is sent to ALL devices connected to THAT switch. The incoming impulse toggles the light sequence forward: Red -> Yellow -> Blue -> red again.

You "just" have to tap several of the buttons until all buttons are blue.

@ MrTroble: Yes, I like such intuitive light patterns too.

I think the combination is like this§

4-4-3-3
