[SPOILERS] Need help figureing out what to do in the end game

[LORD_BUMBLE]

I've seen Eos, I've rejected them, and I've broadcast the signal sharing research. I have found all three of the giant machines that are pointing towards Eos, but my science team says nothing about them. no idea how to proceed.

Hint: Here is the possible clues, as I did it in 0.15, so it may not be relevant in 0.16:
A) Visit the station and talk to mr. grumpy scientist. He should tell you what to do.
B) The trigger may not have occurred, but once all three are pointed at EOS, you return to EOS/Dyson sphere and use your Warp Hopper near the center of the big god robot thingy within the dyson sphere. Or you have to warp hop into the big god robot thingy in the dyson sphere. Regardless you'll need the warp shock ability (just level 1 research of it). If you did it right, the big thingy will start to shrink and end credits will play.
C) Wait, did you talk to the Outcast yet? He gives the 4th piece of a garbled lightwave message, that tells you to talk to grumpy scientist, and then it tells you how to repair/activate those three stations.

I have not done option C, but When I go to him, he just talks about a prophecy on loop with no continuing. I think I've only found two fragments of that message. Where can I find them all?

[Palandus]

Well, lets see. I seem to recall getting one part from travelling in deep space randomly, a second piece from the thingy that gives you the special research topic to find comets more easily, a third one from a planet that is sort of referenced by the message near the space station referenced by the graffiti planet. That will get you 3 out of 4 parts. To get the part from the Outcast, you need to talk to the race with the kamikaze drones and they tell you about him, then he tells you the 4th part which is the prophecy thingy he is referring to.

[LORD_BUMBLE]

The... kamakaze drones? I'm gonna need more than kryptic hints, I've explored every inch of the map (Within reason) and I've wandered around randomly for an hour doing nothing but fight the end game threat in random spots. I am missing something in this haystack and the only way I'm gonna find that needle is with some specific help.

You probably need to talk to the Gortanu again (crab-like creatures).

The very late-game probably needs a bit more hint-dropping or explicit missions. If you're still stuck email your save to [e-mail] and I'll see what's missing.

[LORD_BUMBLE]

Thanks for the pointer. I was hostile with those guys for most of the game and had no idea they would have wanted to carry a conversation at that point.

[Palandus]

Yeah them. I can never remember the name of their race, but usually when you mention kamikaze drones, most people know who you are talking about. They are the only race with kamikaze drones, that bypass your shields and collide with you. Kinda like a highly manueverable missile.

[jaffers]

i had this issue until i talked to all the races again, once i did that there is a certain race that tells you info, the hermit dude will react to you then, then you talk to scientist and so on and so forth to the end

Do you know where the Graffiti place is located? I can't seem to find it either out of my unluckiness or blindness so knowing where it would be would be great as it would let me finish the endgame.
