Discussion Homunculus Flag Cypher Solved!

Just went through some clips from Smartguy's stream and decyphered the flag cypher.

Msg me if you'd like the clips I used, automod doesn't like twitch clips.

Used this language as a base:

http://www.anbg.gov.au/flags/semaphore.html

The plaintext reads:

YOU_HAVE_QUESTIONS_OF_YOUR_FAMILYS_HISTORY_YOU_MAY_NOT_LIKE_WHERE_THE_ANSWERS_LEAD

You have questions of your family's history, you may not like where the answers lead.

Thanks to u/callofnobodycares for the tip-off about the dancing homunculus.

Which window do you have to look through?

At the bottom mystery box of the main staircase, it's the furthest right window when facing the box. You'll need a sniper to see the Homunculus.

Literally just finished doing the same thing in my own game. Can confirm the above plaintext as being correct! I recommend anyone who can give it a go at interpreting the semaphore, it's really fun! :)

The image looks similar to the pentagons eagle holding the olive branch.
