What do you do with the steam battery on steamworks island?

Answer 1

The Steam Battery lets you open the two doors (Sully, Living Quarters) and lower the Bridge. But you need a separate key for each. Sully's is inside the robot crab at the Living Quarters door (jump on him), the Bridge key is in Captain Ziggs room at the Hub, and the Living Quarters key is way, way across the game in the laboratory at far right of the island, across the bridge.

Using the Steam Battery

The small connectors running between the left and right sides set the pressure. The input is 10 (psi or whatever) and you have to change that to fit the door you are trying to open. For Sully's door, the output has to be 5, for the bridge 16, and for the Living Quarters 7. That means that the "total change" for all of the connectors has to modify the input by that amount.

Sully's door -- total change on the bottom meter is -5

Bridge control -- total change on the bottom meter is +6

Living Quarters -- total change on the bottom meter is -3

You change the total by rotating the valve connectors to include or exclude connectors from the path. For example, you need more "negative" valves for Sully or the Living Quarters, and more "positive" values (most of the +2) to bring the pressure up for the Bridge. You can practice rotating the pipes, but try to work from left to right to avoid having a disconnected (open) path. Once you see how the rotation of one pipe changes the pressure, you can revert it, or continue to make other changes down the line, moving up or down from the central pathway. When you have the right total change (-5, +6, or -3), press the steam release at upper left, or close to start over.

Answer 3

There are 3 steam terminals (Sully's, the Bridge, and the Living Quarters). Once you have the key to the door, you can use the steam battery to open it.

You have to go to one of the three steam terminals and when you're standing next to it, you have to take the steam battery and click on use. Then you have to solve the puzzle (the correct sequence of valves) to get the battery to work. After you solve the puzzle, the steam terminal will be activated and the door will open.

Answer 4

Using the Steam Battery, you open the doors and lower the bridge by changing the pressure to equal what is needed for that terminal.

The Steam Puzzle Game in Zac's room requires you to open a path for the steam by rearranging the pieces of pipe. To uncover different sections, click on the squares. To move a piece, click on it, and then the square where you want it to go. You have to hurry to get a piece that can carry the steam before the steam leaves the current pipe. Make a path of connected pipes from the upper left to the exit at lower right. Do this for the 4x4, 6x6, and 8x8 puzzles.

*Glitch : losing a puzzle may prevent you from continuing to the next puzzle. If this happens, leave the room and return, and start the game from the beginning.

Answer 5

well it was even hard to me. you see what i did is i clicked every bolt look at the bottom 3 emptey spaces. make it - or + 5 and make sure one side ends up on the other from the tubes. as you see the one on the left side alwways hits 10. So you should think of it as math. 10+5=15 10-5=5 10-4=6 e.c.t. i hope this helps you.
