You need an envirosuit (V1 or above) and some turbo boots (V2 or above, so that you can get mid-air for a short time), both can be found in the Storage level (LVL 4).

Once you have those, you have to find the cyberspace terminal on the Executive level (same level where the groves are yk) to get clearance to the Beta Grove.


Once you're at the Beta Grove, SHODAN will give you a list of instructions (the silly goose) on how to screw her over, where the conclusion is that you need to disable all Safety Interlocks in the remaining groves, then find the Master Jettison Enable and activate it, then go back and pull the jettison lever at a specific Grove lounge to succeed.

Out of the 3 groves that remain, Beta Grove is used by SHODAN to develop the virus Edward Diego made further, therefore the air is full of dangerous toxic molecules that slowly drain your health, so it's best to know how to quickly get through this part of the game if you don't want to explore Beta Grove all that much - even though there are some pretty neat stuff you can find if you do.


Follow my steps in the video and you should be fine, hacker. 💽

Bonus: Here's how this works in the original System Shock from 1994, just for fun.

Also, apologies for the low quality and the stutters, the latter I experienced myself as well whilst the former is due to the file sizes of my recordings as well as this whole video just being a quick afterthought. Still, I thought this could be useful to some folk so why not share it, you know.
