In the post-apocalyptic world of *Atomfall*, certain items can prove to be game-changers during your adventures. One such pivotal item is the Signal Redirector, which is notoriously challenging to acquire. If you're having trouble locating it, this guide will walk you through the process of obtaining the Signal Redirector.
Where to Find Signal Redirector in Atomfall
The Signal Redirector is a unique tool in *Atomfall* that you can't simply purchase from traders or scavenge from the dead (like the Metal Detector). It's located in a specific spot linked to one of the game's central figures, Dr. Diane Garrow, a former B.A.R.D scientist.
Your journey begins after you gather information in Wyndham Village about Dr. Garrow's whereabouts. From there, you must embark on a mission to rescue her. Dr. Garrow is imprisoned deep within the Protocol prison camp in Skethermoor, a location teeming with hostile Protocol soldiers.
To ease your infiltration, consider meeting Captain Grant Sims in Wyndham Village first. By assisting him with tasks like recovering stolen items, you might gain some favor with Protocol, making your mission slightly less perilous.
Once prepared, head to the Protocol prison camp on the southern edge of Skethermoor. The entrance to the underground prison is at the end of the southernmost road, behind a large green door.
Navigating the multi-level prison involves evading or confronting guards and robots. Don't forget that B.A.R.D robots can be disabled to collect their **Atomic Batteries**, which are essential for The Interchange.
Reach the bottom level, past the dig site area, where Dr. Garrow is confined in a standalone cell in the main room. To free her, you'll need the Signal Redirector, which is stored in the nearby Storage room on a shelf. Upon retrieving it, you'll earn the **‘Reverse the Polarity’ trophy/achievement**.
How to Use Signal Redirector in Atomfall
The Signal Redirector, a hacking device crafted by Dr. Garrow, allows you to reroute power within yellow junction boxes to different sources. This capability can disable security systems and unlock storage rooms, among other uses.
Similar to the Metal Detector, the Signal Redirector will alert you with an icon at the bottom of your screen when you're near a hackable junction box. Follow the device's needle to locate it, and when close enough, the junction box will be highlighted.
Select the 'Hack' button to reroute the power. If you need to, you can reverse the hack by selecting the 'Hack' option again.
Utilizing the Signal Redirector will be crucial to freeing Dr. Garrow and advancing her storyline, should you choose to help her escape.
