Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic II: The Sith Lords Hints

How can I unlock the turbolift that leads back to the admin level?

  • 1 of 26: Try the nearby turbolift console.
  • 2 of 26: You could simply destroy the console to open the turbolift door, but you'll probably want to go for the longer, more XP-rewarding way.
  • 3 of 26: Notice that if you don't destroy the console, you can attempt to manually enter a five-number code.
  • 4 of 26: Maybe the guy that set the code recorded it somewhere.
  • 5 of 26: Coorta was the head miner, so search his body (conveniently in the same room as the turbolift).
  • 6 of 26: You need to figure out how to read the hololog you find on his body.
  • 7 of 26: After you insert the hololog into the log terminal and decode it, play it and then check the transmission.
  • 8 of 26: That'll get you the five numbers for the turbolift code, but they're encoded in some sort of military flash code.
  • 9 of 26: Maybe viewing some of the other logs you can find will help.
  • 10 of 26: Start by searching the corpse that's right next to the log terminal.
  • 11 of 26: Insert the mine administrator's hololog into the log terminal and play the "Emergency Status" log.
  • 12 of 26: Ah, so the first three numbers are 3, 17, and 13. Now maybe we can use that info to figure out the code and thereby derive the last two numbers in the sequence.
  • 13 of 26: Matching the numbers you know with the code on Coorta's log, you'll see that ... means 3, -X.. means 17, and -... means 13.
  • 14 of 26: It's obvious from the first one that a single . represents a 1.
  • 15 of 26: It's then obvious from the third one that a
  • 16 of 26: means 10, since one of those plus three dots equals 13.
  • 17 of 26: Then it's clear that X equals 5, since -X.. needs to be 17, and the
  • 18 of 26: and .. together give 12.
  • 19 of 26: So the fourth number in the series is 5, since it's represented by a single X.
  • 20 of 26: And the fifth number is 7, since it's an X (5) and .. (2).
  • 21 of 26: So go to the turbolift console and enter 3, 17, 13, 5, and 7 as the code.
  • 22 of 26: But that doesn't work! Now what? Who could have changed the code?
  • 23 of 26: Your journal suggests you check the turbolift console's camera logs.
  • 24 of 26: When you do, you'll see a video sequence in which a mocking robotic voice that's disturbingly similar to the HK Protocol Droid's says it "reversed" the turbolift codes.
  • 25 of 26: So try the numbers in reverse.
  • 26 of 26: Enter 7, 5, 13, 17, and 3 to *finally* get the turbolift open.
