Quake 4 Hints
How can I get rid of the flames?
1 of 8: You can't, so look around for someone or something that can.
2 of 8: Maybe some of the local Strogg repair bots could be assigned to fix the problem.
3 of 8: You need to explore around and find a control panel that has something to do with repair bots.
4 of 8: Go back up to Hollenbeck's wrecky little hallway and check out the two doors up there.
5 of 8: A "system offline" screen gets in your face if you try to enter Hangar 3, so try the other door.
6 of 8: You'll immediately come to a panel with a clickable spot labeled "assign repair bots."
7 of 8: That's what you want, so click on that to get the bots going.
8 of 8: Then return to the flame-blocked door to find that it's not flame-blocked anymore. Thank you, repair bots!
