East Park Station is one of the four subway stops Dylan has to reroute during the Power Lines mission in Control Resonant, and it is the gentlest puzzle of the bunch. There is no riddle about which taped square goes with which unit here. The station’s only real trick is the Mold sitting on top of the squares, plus one Calibration Unit locked behind a shop gate that you can only reach by letting the Tuning Device throw you around the station.

Quick answer: Shoot the Mold off the three taped squares, then fill each square with a Calibration Unit — one from the shop past the ticket barriers, one already on the platform, and one from the gated shop you teleport into via the Tuning Device.


Where East Park Station is on the Central map

East Park Station sits in the south-eastern corner of the slice of Central you reach by cutting through the building next to the FBC Field Office. Once you are out the other side, head right and then straight down. A petrol station sits near the subway entrance, so if you can see the pumps you are in the right block.

Coming from Factory Station instead? Take the road running directly past the Patterned Factory until you hit a crossroads, then turn down towards East Park. From Perimeter Station, the two stops are close neighbours — the road linking them is short.

The entrance seals off as you approach and a batch of Hiss spawns. You cannot walk down the stairs until they are all dead, and a Hiss Cluster in the group will keep healing the rest, so break that one first.


What the station puzzle asks for

Every station in Power Lines works the same way. A Tuning Device sits on the platform, three taped squares surround it, and the machine will only reroute power once a Calibration Unit is sitting in each square. Activate it before that and it teleports Dylan somewhere else in the station instead of doing anything useful.

East Park is the forgiving version of that setup. There are exactly three squares and exactly three units, so placement does not matter — any unit in any square counts. That is not true at Perimeter Station, where specific squares are required, so enjoy the break while it lasts.

1Small shop on the right, past the ticket barriersNothing — walk in and grab it
2On the platform near the Tuning DeviceNothing — already down there
3The second, gated shopLocked gate; reached by teleport

The first two are a walk-and-carry job. The third is the only one that needs the Tuning Device, and it is also the reason people get stuck here — the gate has no switch on the outside, so there is no way to open it from the platform.


How to reroute East Park Station

Head down the stairs to the platform and find the three taped squares ringing the Tuning Device. Each one is smothered in Mold, which you need to shoot apart before anything can be placed. This is your first proper meeting with the Mold, and it turns up again at Vanished Station later in the mission.

Grab the Calibration Unit already sitting on the platform and drop it into any of the cleared squares. With one down, you have two to go and the puzzle’s geometry is already sorted.

Go back up and into the open shop on the right-hand side past the ticket barriers. The unit inside is free to take. Carry it down the stairs and set it in the second square.

Now use the Tuning Device repeatedly. Because the squares are not all filled, each activation teleports Dylan somewhere else in the station rather than rerouting power. Keep triggering it until you land inside the gated shop — it usually takes around three attempts.

Inside the gated shop, shoot the electrical panel on the wall. That raises the gate so you can walk out with the last Calibration Unit. Take it down to the platform and drop it in the final square.
With all three units seated, use the Tuning Device one more time. This time it reroutes the power instead of moving Dylan.

How to tell the reroute worked

The confirmation is simple. If the Tuning Device teleports you, the puzzle is not finished and at least one square is still empty or blocked by Mold. If the power reroutes, the objective ticks over and the mission points you at the next station.

Stop at the intercom before you leave and have the conversation waiting there. Once that is done, Perimeter Station is the next stop on the Power Lines list, and its puzzle does care which square each unit goes in.
