The reactor lights code is a code formed by the lights on the SNW control panel in Reactor.
It was discovered when Zuntti posted this image related to the INFRA ARG.
This prompted investigation of the lights when Zuntti posted a further image with the lights circled. These lights are not specific to this image however, and can appear randomly in-game as one of the many light sets the panel can circle through. This is an image of the lights as they appear in game, for easier viewing.
When reading the columns of letter pairs, one can read the following from the four columns:
- BUNKE and OTHER from the first column.
- COMPU and WORLD from the second column.
- MIDDL and 1 6 R 14 D from the third column.
- QUEST and I 12 14 I 9 from the fourth column.
This refers to the bunker computer code question WHATCONNECTSALLTHESE
through BUNKE COMPU MIDDL QUEST. The other part of the code can be obtained by substituting the numbers with the characters from the question (i.e., 1=W, 9=O, etc.), which results in "OTHER WORLD WORLD ISLIE", or (possibly) "the other world is a lie".
The interpretation of the decoded message is just an assumption, as the word "world" appears twice.
Interestingly, the sign above the lights has "F34" on it. The ASCII code says that 0x34 is the code for the number 4, which means F34 could be decoded as F4. F4 is is the Body message code for "ANSWER", but it also has the meta information "3 words", so the answer could be "world is lie".
