Re: possible symbol/light decryption....
Posted By: skraelingDate: 4/4/04 11:02 p.m.

In Response To: possible symbol/light decryption.... (Socrates)

: Great work, there, skraeling.

: My addition: I believe that the larger circles in the symbols represent the
: next(?) room, whether it is contained or if the doors are open. The lights
: could then be representative of the status in regards to how things are
: supposed to be: yellow, unknown/occupied other than by Flood; red, here
: there be Flood!; green, all clear, no Flood here!; teal, (non-weapons)
: experiment or observation in progress; blue, weapons experiment in
: progress. The color of the symbols could represent what's usually going on
: in that room. Red would indicate a room which will almost always have
: Flood in it; green would indicate a room that is supposed to be clear of
: Flood at all times; teal would indicate a non-weapons experiment and
: observation room; blue would inidcate a weapons-testing room.

: Let me know what you think!

: ~Socrates

I had a similar theory but it fell apart after I sketched out a floor plan of the facility and marked the location and color of all the symbols and lights. I'll explain.

Rooms connect to each other through hallways. Each door is marked with a pair of lights. Each hallway has a hallway beneath it, so most rooms are connected with two hallways and four doors. Most of them have a teal/blue combination, like this:

TB
BT

That's what it would look like if you analyzed the doors from the side. As you see, teal always is above blue and leads to blue, and vice versa. So it wouldn't seem like they have anything to do with the location they're going to. I may be wrong. Sometimes red is in place of the colors, like the three examples here:

TR-----TB----RT
BT-----RR----RB

These of course arn't all the combinations, but I'm just giving you an idea of how there seems to be no pattern. Another brain tickler are the green lights, which only appear at doors that lead to elevators going up, except for the one that doesn't. A green marked door appears at the other end of the flickering light-bridge, where marines come out and get killed by flood.

The only marker lights that are consistent are the ones that appear at the glass tanks. They are always green if closed, and red if open. All the other marker lights just don't seem to make any sense in my mind.
