The teleporter works both ways, and the resurrection bay on Engineering is notoriously tricky to find. Engineering on the whole is a colossal maze, even more so than any other level.

The teleporter itself works both ways, but you can't get into the room that has the teleporter from the main area of Executive. At least as far as I could tell. There's only a switch one one side.

The door should stay open permanently.
I'd just reload. The resurrection stations working across decks is a... weird change from the original that really doesn't make sense.

The door actually doesn't stay open. You have to use/frob it, like it's a switch (even though there's no switch). I've shot it and melee hit it multiple times, duh, never thought to just press it.

Reminds me of the time I got stuck in System Shock 2's cargo bay because it never even occurred to me that the cargo bay door with the broken card reader might just open like any unlocked door.

Sorry, should have said the door was two-way. It's not immediately obvious because you have to press a button on the far side to unlock it, which also opens it, giving the impression that it's opened via that button.

What the fuck is wrong with the fonts in the remake? Why was it released in this state? Some text is already difficult to read in the English version, but when i switch to the German version, it becomes illegible in places.
That's my only bad impression about the game.

Agreed - had to install (

It's actually not that difficult if you just go to the level's central hub. That's one of the first things I do on Engineering, and the access to the central hub is right next to the elevator. I go and get the V3 boots, then go to the central hub and get to the upper level, where you can solve the puzzles that will open the doors and give you a relatively quick access to all sections of the level.

Oh sure, once you know how to find it, it's relatively easy, but finding it in the first place is something of a nightmare. Most people aren't going to jetboot up to a higher level, they're going to explore their immediate surroundings first, and the level opens out initially in the opposite direction. I'm willing to bet most people who play SS1 for the first time will find the resurrection bay towards the end of exploring engineering.
