Good People is a duo of two monsters, Z-96 and Z-779. While Z-779 has no physical appearance due to it being an AI program, Z-96 is a conglomoration of human flesh formed into a large mass and adorned with a weathered grey mask. Z-96 has two lengthy bone-like arms with three large claws in place of fingers on each hand.

In rooms with multiple doors, there is a chance for Good People to generate. One or more doors will be occupied by Z-96, with Z-779 displaying the number of the next door on the door's navi-path. If a player opens a door inhabited by Z-96 it will attack them, changing the navi-path and locking the door.

The best way to avoid being tricked by Good People is to be cautious of which door you choose in rooms with multiple working doors. Standing next to a door and listening for audio cues can help you make sure that you don't open a false door. If you can hear breathing, growling, or shifting then it means that Z-96 is behind the door. A way to counter it at a distant is watching the door number for sparks.

Revision as of 07:01, 12 June 2024
The Z-96 & Z-779 duo, dubbed "Good People", is a threat in Pressure, acting as a common hazard found in the Hadal Blacksite.
Good People is a duo of two monsters, Z-96 and Z-779.
Z-96 is a conglomoration of human flesh formed into a large mass and adorned with a weathered grey mask. Z-96 has two lengthy bone-like arms with three large claws in place of fingers on each hand.
Z-779 represents an old computer from the 1980s, being connected to the network as well as being connected to an old drawing tablet.
Mechanics
In rooms with multiple doors, there is a chance for Good People to generate. One or more doors will be occupied by Z-96, with Z-779 displaying the number of the next door on the door's navi-path. If a player opens a door inhabited by Z-96 it will attack them, changing the navi-path and locking the door.
Notes
False doors can generate in rooms that require Keycards.
A door inhabited by Z-96 will have several visual and audio cues to indicate that it should not open. These include breathing, growling sounds, and sparks coming from said door's navi-path.
If a node monster passes through a room with false doors generated, all false doors in its path will change to their revealed state, and the correct door's navi-path will turn off.
False doors cannot spawn underwater or in flooded rooms, unless the correct door is at the surface.
The Ridge completely lacks door numbers, however, Good People's sound cues will be louder, increasing from the typical 12 studs to 50 studs of range.
Strategy
The best way to avoid being tricked by Good People is to be cautious of which door you choose in rooms with multiple working doors. Standing next to a door and listening for audio cues can help you make sure that you don't open a false door. If you can hear breathing, growling, or shifting then it means that Z-96 is behind the door. A way to counter it at a distant is watching the door number for sparks.
Z-96 is most likely a reference to SCP-035 respectively.
