The names found in the encrypted registry raise a troubling issue. Some belong to current residents of your shelter. It’s impossible to know whether they are accomplices or being manipulated, but one thing is clear: you can no longer trust anyone. It’s safer to continue the investigation discreetly with just one ally, without raising any alarms or suspicions.
This caution leads you to dig deeper into the file. You quickly discover that it’s not just a list of names: the military station centralized a massive flow of data — technical logs, biometric records, maintenance information. From these elements, it appeared to generate “vitality” indicators to evaluate the stability of each shelter.
These indicators don’t concern Prométhes alone, but also other sanctuaries. Some appear fragmented, others coherent. It’s now up to you to process this raw data in order to reconstruct the vitality indicators and understand the real state of the different shelters.
Rules
You have at your disposal a variable shelters containing the information of the shelters in the following format:
ABC_E:10_N:20_S:30
ABC is the three-letter code identifying the shelter.E:10 represents an Equipment score of 10.N:20 represents a Food score of 20.S:30 represents a Health score of 30.In your archives, you find the formula used to calculate the vital system state of a shelter:
(25% of the Equipment score + 40% of the Food score + 35% of the Health score)
× 2.25
rounded down to the nearest integer.
But that’s not all:
You must return:
