To access that stash, players must enter a four-digit code into a keypad on the front of the building, and they may be confused about how that code is determined. This guide is here to alleviate that confusion, and it will help fans find the code that is used to reach the Scientists’ Stash in STALKER 2: Heart of Chornobyl‘s Hydrodynamics Lab.

STALKER 2: Hydrodynamics Lab Code (Scientists’ Stash)
Players who are looking for the Hydronamics Lab code should begin by entering the location’s central building. After defeating the enemies on the first floor of this building, STALKER fans should make their way to the southwest corner. There is a stairwell in that part of the building, which players should use to climb to the second floor.
As players explore the second floor, they will encounter a Controller, a mutant that uses psi attacks to cause Skiff to hallucinate. Ideally, fans will have Psi-Block pills on hand, which can be used to prevent the ill effects caused by the Controller’s attacks, though they are not required. Indeed, as long as the player is aggressive, and focuses on bringing the Controller down quickly, they should be able to defeat the mutant without using any consumables in STALKER 2.
It is likely that several zombies will appear upon attacking the Controller, and players should be prepared to deal with those additional enemies.
Once the Controller is slain, players should interact with its body and collect the Electronic Collar from it. This action will add the Collar Tag Text note to Skiff’s PDA, and that note is the key to determining the Hydrodynamics Lab code and reaching the associated stash in STALKER 2.
More specifically, players that view the Collar Tag Text note in the PDA will see two sets of numbers: 48 and 24. Putting those numbers together yields the sequence 4824, and players should input those four digits into the keypad on the front of the small building in the Hydrodynamics Lab’s southwest corner. Fans should then press the green button on the keypad to open the building’s door and gain access to a room in which the Scientists’ Stash can be found.
