The Moment of Silence Hints
How can I open the bulkhead across the hall from the evac bulkhead?
1 of 20: Have you tried messing with its switch panel?
2 of 20: You can press five large continent-shaped buttons on the panel.
3 of 20: You need to press them in a very specific order.
4 of 20: You could guess -- there are only 120 possibilities.
5 of 20: Or you could look around for a clue.
6 of 20: Have you searched the dead guy next to the evac bulkhead? He didn't know how to open that bulkhead, but maybe he knew how to open this one.
7 of 20: Searching him will reveal a note in his shirt pocket and a disk in his hand.
8 of 20: The disk can't be read just by looking at it, and the note looks blank. Not helpful!
9 of 20: But then, you know how sneaky these conspiracy types can be. Maybe one of those is a trick item.
10 of 20: How about the "blank" note? Maybe it has invisible ink or something on it.
11 of 20: One standard way to search for such things is to heat up the paper to see if anything is revealed.
12 of 20: So use your lighter on the note in inventory.
13 of 20: That'll give you a close-up of the paper with the lighter as your mouse cursor.
14 of 20: Move the lighter around the paper to see if anything shows up.
15 of 20: It's very faint, but there are several letters printed across the top of the paper.
