In the post-apocalyptic world of *Atomfall*, certain items you stumble upon during your travels can be game-changers. One such item, the Signal Redirector, is a crucial tool that's not easy to acquire. If you're having trouble locating it, this guide will walk you through the process of obtaining the Signal Redirector in *Atomfall*.
Where to Find Signal Redirector in Atomfall
The Signal Redirector is a unique tool in *Atomfall* that you won't find through conventional means. Unlike items like the Metal Detector, which might be found on a corpse or sold by a trader, the Signal Redirector is tied to a specific location and character – Dr. Diane Garrow, a former B.A.R.D scientist.
Your journey begins in Wyndham Village, where you'll pick up a lead on Dr. Garrow's whereabouts. From there, you must embark on a rescue mission to save her from the depths of the Protocol prison camp in Skethermoor. Reaching this location is no small feat, as the area is heavily guarded by Protocol soldiers.
To ease your infiltration, consider connecting with Captain Grant Sims in Wyndham Village. By assisting him with tasks such as recovering stolen items, you can gain favor with Protocol, at least temporarily.
When ready, head to the Protocol prison camp located on the far south border of Skethermoor. The entrance to the underground prison is at the end of the southernmost road, behind a giant green door.
Navigating the prison involves progressing through multiple levels while avoiding or neutralizing guards and robots. Remember, B.A.R.D robots can be disabled to obtain **Atomic Batteries**, essential for The Interchange.
Reach the bottom level of the prison, beyond the dig site area. Here, you'll find Dr. Garrow locked in a standalone cell in the main room. To free her, you'll need the Signal Redirector, located 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, crafted by Dr. Garrow, serves as a hacking tool that reroutes power inside yellow junction boxes to different sources. This capability is vital for disabling security systems, unlocking storage rooms, and more.
Similar to the Metal Detector, the Signal Redirector will ping you with an icon at the bottom of your screen when a hackable junction box is nearby. Follow the direction indicated by the device's needle, and the junction box will be highlighted once you're close enough.
Select the 'Hack' button to reroute the junction box's power. If needed, you can reverse the process by hacking the junction box again.
Utilizing the Signal Redirector will help you free Dr. Garrow from her cell, allowing you to continue her storyline if you choose to escape with her.
