Where to find the Holo Chip?
- Holo Chip is a unique collectible that you can find in the game world. You can come across the chip while exploring the canyon in act 2. You need to reach the location with trees, as shown in the above screenshots. It is near one of the deep mineral deposits.
- Check out the chest, where you'll find the Holo Chip. You will also establish that the trees were an illusion, i.e., a hologram.
How to unlock a new base room?
- The chip's description in the inventory does not reveal its specific use, but it is not very complicated. You will be able to create a similar hologram in your base.
- Acquiring the Holo Chip has unlocked the Park with Bench Research. Jan Scientist has to develop this project.
- After completing this research, you can build a mini-park at the base. Building it costs 40 metals and 60 minerals. You also need to have 5 free slots (one horizontal line).
- The park is mostly utilized to improve the mood of Alters and it can be an excellent addition to the Contemplation Room. Additionally, you can complete the side task described below.
How to complete the Green Refuge side task?
- At a certain stage of the game, you can talk to Jan Technician and he will ask the main character to construct a Park with Bench in the base. This will start the Green Refuge optional quest.
- After the construction is finished, you have to wait for Jan Technician to appear in the park (check the base overview often). Meet him at this location to complete the optional mission.
