Secrets of the Ark: A Broken Sword Game Hints

General Hacking Tips

  • 1 of 4: Remember that your data stream has to be routed through every network point, and must never hit a wall or restricted network.
  • 2 of 4: Keeping this in mind, you can often see (at least in part) exactly how your data stream must flow, and can then start planning how to use the available mirrors, diverters, and splitters to cause it to flow that way.
  • 3 of 4: If your data stream is hitting one of the two sides of a mirror but not going anywhere, then it must be hitting the "back" side of a single (one-sided) mirror. You'll have to rotate it all the way around so the data stream is hitting its other side.
  • 4 of 4: Your data stream can accidentally get diverted in a direction you don't want it to (like into a restricted network) while you're rotating an item that's in its path. Due to this, it's best to plan ahead and do all the rotating you're going to before you drag-and-drop the item into the data stream's path.
