)- the "2222" might refer to
notepad_001_skin3
, where there is an entry "door b34 2222" - "EL" might be related to the Villa woodboxes code, as both start with "EL"

Mostly all are just 8 zeros, except for 4 values out of the 13 (000359EC at index 0, 0002A271 at index 2, 00000210 at index 10, 00000884 at index 11).
Unsorted
height_limit_sign_001_skin2
contains a seemingly hand-written number "6"skin0
...skin2
contain "HEIGHT LIMIT 2.2m", "...2.3m", "...2.6m", characters 2, 3 and 6 reversed resolve to the word "tie"
train_arrival_monitor_001
should be investigated, could be a red herring.mailbox_skin2
has text encododed in binary saying "the truth is in tunnels / Robin" (all lowercase except the first letter of "Robin")- There seems to be an unusual (aka statistically significant) high occurence of "1993" or "93".

- The right part of "Zunttis rag" (aka
scientific_table_001_skin3
, see Letter box) is unused, but seems to contain a lot of words.- It also has 27 columns and 9 rows of letters, both a multiple of 3, so the letter grid can be split into 9x3 squares of size 3x3.
- Note the "9x3", which may be related to the occurences of "93", possibly giving a multi-level tap code, i.e. a single tap code of size 9x3 referring to a square, and a 3x3 tap code referring to a letter, or something similar, e.g. it can be divided into 3 9x9 grids.
- The box is 27 characters wide same length as the Finnish alphabet and it also includes the ÅÄÖ (reversed) from the Finnish alphabet. might be a hint towards using an extended alphabet.
- XT and YT could be "X Transpose & Y Transpose" to hint towards double transposition cipher.
- G0 could be a clue to where to start the alphabet count (e.g A=0, B=1, C=2 etc. instead of A=1, B=2,C=3)
- based on that the points above transposition keys could be: XT:(11,16,9,21,25,20,13,19,19,8,18,0,16,7,19,15,4,22,3,22,3,13,11,0,15,0,22,12) and YT: (3,12,24,5,20,3,10,8,13,19,7,24,23,14,15,14,24,1,28,27,26,15,5,7,18,17,4)
- The Wasteland notes "truth" can be extended by "RESEARSTOPPED" from the Wasteland radio morse, resolving the anomaly "T.50=P".
