The Terminal can be found in various Zones in the Complex. It is used to locate items and objectives. The most important commands are LIST, QUERY, and PING. Another useful command is CLS (It will delete the Terminal's existing text).

Basics

The Terminal's main usage is to locate items and objectives.


There are 3 basic commands:

  • List
  • Query
  • Ping


Generally, you should use the commands in this order:

  1. --Optional-- Use List to find out which items randomly spawned in a Zone.
  2. When you find the name of an item you want more information on, use Query on that item.
  3. Once you have the Zone and the name of an item, navigate to that Zone's terminal.
  4. PING the name of the item from the Zone's Terminal.
    1. Use the information from the successful PING to instruct your teammates on which subZone they must go to (Zone 17 - Area B, for example).
    2. Continue issuing PING commands until your team has found the item.


When using any of the commands, follow the command with a space and the name of the Zone/ Item. Zone names can be found on the map, written on doors, or on billboards inside rooms.


Examples of List, Query, and Ping:

  • List Zone_17 (This will show that Zone_17 contains MediPack_123)
  • Query MediPack_123 (This will show MediPack_123's location is Zone_17)
  • Ping MediPack_123 (This will show MediPack_123's location is Zone_17 - Area B. It will also make the MediPack emit an audible sound for your teammates in Zone_17 to hear so that they can find it)

LIST

The LIST command is used when you want to find which items have spawned in the Complex.


A LIST command can look like any of the following:

  • LIST ZONE (recommended for beginners)
  • LIST ITEM_TYPE
  • LIST ITEM_TYPE ZONE


If ONLY a Zone is entered:

  • The Terminal will show the names of ALL Items in the Zone.

If ONLY an Item_Type is entered:

  • The Terminal will show the names of every item that matches the Item_Type in ALL Zones

If BOTH an Item_Type and a Zone are entered:

  • The Terminal will show the names of every item that matches the Item_Type and is in the given Zone.


The most important things to look for when using a LIST command are Resource Packs. Resource Packs can be any one of the following:

  • AMMO (AmmoPack) ---> LIST AMMO ZONE_NUMBER (EX: LIST AMMO ZONE_30)
  • MEDIPACK (MediPack) ---> LIST MEDI ZONE_NUMBER (EX: LIST MEDI ZONE_46)
  • TOOL REFILL KIT (Tool_Refill) ---> LIST TOOL ZONE_NUMBER (EX: LIST TOOL ZONE_97)


To find ANY type of Resource Pack in a Zone use the following command: LIST RESOURCE ZONE (EX: LIST RESOURCE ZONE_83).

  • This will list any available ammo, medical and tool packs and is a great command to use since it's a time saver and lists everything in one go, instead of inputting three separate commands.


Note: You can not LIST a subZone. You must use LIST Zone_17, and can not LIST Zone_17b.

QUERY

(How To: QUERY)

The QUERY command is used when you want to know something about an item that you already have the name of.

You may QUERY an item, door, or objective.


The terminal will show the:

  1. Location
  2. Ping Status
  3. -- Optional (Consumable Item)-- Uses Remaining
  4. -- Optional (Door)-- Where the door leads, both forwards and backwards
  5. -- Optional (Door)-- Required KEY
  6. -- Optional (Objective)-- Objective Information


To query an objective like an HSU would be: QUERY HSU_XXX (EX: HSU_123). Doing this correctly will pinpoint the Zone the HSU (Hydro-Stasis Unit) is located in.

The command to query an ammo pack would be: QUERY AMMOPACK_304. When done correctly the query will display the item's zone and how many uses it has remaining. It will show up as: AMMUNITION PACK - CAPACITY: 80%, indicating the ammo pack has 4 uses.

PING

The PING command is used to pinpoint the specific location of an item that you are in the same Zone as. You must know the name (ID) of the item, so you usually must have previously done a LIST command.


A successful PING command results in two things:

  1. Terminal displays Item's subZone location.
  1. Item will emit a loud, audible sound for nearby players to hear.


Example of a PING command: PING MEDIPACK_911

PING SUCCESS. MEDIPACK_911 found in Zone_49 Area_B

Note: The PING's audible sound is directional and the closer you are to an item the louder the ping will be. This is useful for pinpointing the exact location of an item so that it may be retrieved.


The PING command requires the player to be in the same Zone where the item is held. Otherwise the PING command will not work.
