Anachronox Hints
How do I open the door at the end?
1 of 6: You may not be able to get into the Lower Routubes from the Upper Routubes right away. You'll need to wait until you have a reason to go in there first.
2 of 6: Specifically, wait until you've been to Sunder and back. The area right in front of the door into the Lower Routubes will now have been cleaned up.
3 of 6: The control panel here was pretty badly damaged, but you might be able to figure out something.
4 of 6: Or at least one possible party member should be able to.
5 of 6: It's just a matter of analyzing the situation.
6 of 6: Make sure Rho is in your party (you can get her from the Lounge of Commerce if she isn't) and have her analyze the broken control panel with her WorldSkill. She'll then be able to open the door into the Lower Routubes.
