System Shock 2 Hints
Interpolated (Red) Sim Chip
1 of 8: The red cyborg assassin in Operations C has this chip. (Take bulkhead 42 or 44, east of Xerxes' core, to get to Operations C.)
2 of 8: You will first see him on the west side of the level, near the Lounge.
3 of 8: Follow him to the Storage area south of the Lounge, but be careful not to get hit by the falling crates.
4 of 8: Once you have the chip, you can use it in Operations D. (Take bulkhead 43, west of Xerxes' core, to get to Operations D.)
5 of 8: The unit is on the lower level of Power Ops, which is south of the bulkhead. Use the proper chip on it.
6 of 8: You may have seen a log warning you of a booby trap on that unit.
7 of 8: Annelid spiders will come at you from grates near the sim unit once you approach the unit.
8 of 8: I recommend that you run to the west and climb the ladders there. The spiders can't follow you up the ladders, so you can either kill them from a safe distance or just leave this area altogether if you've already used the chip.
