[SPOILER] Question about a certain alien artifact
« on: February 04, 2017, 08:49:20 AM »

So I was having a run and had a weird alien artifact called Dimensional Node Initializer (according to the score sheet).

I was like, "What in the world is that?" After I used it, the log says: "Initializer activates and latches into the ground." Scanner shows the latched object is called "Dimensional Slip Node" which is depicted as an orange circle on the map. After waiting around and standing on top of it, I had no clue what it does. After a while, I just left.

There's also a Private machine adjacent to it. I was hoping it will say something about its use, but it doesn't.

Is there an additional lore describing its use? Or should I try it out in a different location when I come across it again? I hope it's something that I can figure it out easily, and if it is, I wouldn't like to be spoiled.

There's lore which explains what it does. You can also maybe work it out or chance upon the explanation.

It's much better if I don't say anything :)

Good to know that there's an explanation for it. I was a little surprised since all the other artifacts have some obvious effects after use.
