If you want to do a job, like [[Station Engineer]], you need to know how to build and deconstruct stuff.
#REDIRECT [[Guide to Construction]]
 
== Basic Tools ==
 
Before you can begin any construction or deconstruction you need to gather a few useful tools.
 
These tools can be found in any blue [[General_items#Mechanical_Toolbox|Mechanical Toolbox]] on the station. They can also be made in an [[Autolathe]] or dispensed from a [[YouTool|YouTool -vending machine]].

=== Walls ===
 
==== Normal Wall ====
{{anchor|Wall}}
This is the standard type of wall found around the station, they are easy to construct and remove but are not as strong as reinforced walls. They also come in a hidden door variety. Walls can also be made out of different minerals, uranium being special with emitting strong radiation around it. They're useful for:
* Keeping people out.
* Keeping people in.
* Keeping people from going places.

==== Reinforced Wall ====
{{anchor|Rwall}}{{anchor|Reinforced Wall}}
This is the reinforced type of wall found in secure areas of station, they are reasonably simple to construct, but are very time consuming to remove. They also can be made as a hidden door. They're useful for:
* Keeping people in and out of high security areas.

==== Normal/Reinforced Hidden Door ====
{{anchor|Hidden Door}}{{anchor|Hidden Wall}}{{anchor|Reinforced Hidden Door}}{{anchor|Reinforced Hidden Wall}}
Also known as "Fake Walls" or "Hidden Walls". With a little imagination, hidden doors can be used in many marvelous tactics, varying from ambushes to passages into your very own secret hideaway room.
* Click to open.
* An almost undetectable escape route.
* Not airtight, leaks gases through.
* Otherwise, same as a regular wall.

To turn an already finished wall into a hidden door, follow the deconstruction guide for the wall type until the final wrenching of the girder, and instead proceed from the "Use crowbar on the girder" line above.

=== Normal/Reinforced Windows ===
{{anchor|Windows}}{{anchor|Window}}{{anchor|Reinforced Windows}}{{anchor|Reinforced Window}}
Windows are aesthetically quite pleasing because they are almost invisible. You can build two types of windows:
{{anchor|Full}}
* Full: A see-through wall. Usually only used if you don't have enough for 2-4 one-directionals or the metal for a wall.
{{anchor|One directional}}
* One Direction: Stops movement only from the way it faces.

==== Mineral Door ====
{{anchor|Door}}{{anchor|Doors}}{{anchor|Mineral Door}}
The actual doors of the game. Nobody ever uses these poor things and they aren't even airtight. Every ore material (and wood) can be made into a door. Other door types (which act otherwise similar, just made out of different material) are: sand, gold, silver, plasma, uranium and diamond.

==== Chairs ====
{{anchor|Chair}}{{anchor|Stool}}{{anchor|Comfy Chair}}{{anchor|Office Chair}}
Chairs are for sitting down and making the place look nice. The only real use for chairs are to restrain people, building electric chairs or to buckle in when the shuttle is about to take off. Office chairs can also be used to move buckled people around.

==== Tables/Reinforced Table ====
{{anchor|Table}}{{anchor|Tables}}{{anchor|Reinforced Table}}{{anchor|Wooden Table}}
Tables are used to hold objects on. The most common ones are metal, glass and reinforced. You can climb onto tables, though it takes a short while. Tables can also be used for [[Ghetto Surgery|ghetto surgery]].

==== Lockers ====
{{anchor|Locker}}
Lockers are among the most common and arguably the most useful of containers on the station. Nearly anything can fit inside, barring other lockers, [[crates]], and certain especially large objects like [[#Racks|racks]] and [[quartermaster|MULEbots]].
 
Besides being welded shut, some lockers can be, well, locked. Several levels of access exist, such as security-, captain-, and private-level access. These can be opened with the proper level [[identification card]], [[Syndicate_Items#Cryptographic Sequencer|emag]] item, or a few good laser blasts.
 
If you yourself are inside a locker, you can see your surroundings. Normally you can move in any direction to exit the locker, but if the locker is locked or welded, you will be unable to exit and you cannot unweld or unlock your cell from inside - at that point if you try to move around you will instead throw yourself against the sides of the locker, making a '''BANG BANG''' sound that can be heard from several squares away. Using the [[Resist]] button will allow you to slowly open the locker.
 
Coffins count as lockers.

==== Rack ====
{{anchor|Racks}}
Racks are flat and wide, incapable of being walked over, and bolted together. They can hold any number of items, but they hold them stacked on top of each other like a [[table]]. They are most common in [[maintenance]] tunnels and the [[EVA]] room.

==== Beds ====
{{anchor|Bed}}
Get your mind out of the gutter, they're for sleeping! Most station's beds come with a bedsheet, and new beds without sheets can be made with metal. The Medbay's preferred variation of a bed is the movable and collapsible [[File:Roller_Bed.png|Roller Bed]] Roller Bed, which is extremely useful for <s>sex</s> transporting patients.
 
You use a bed by going on top of it and ''*sleep''. To buckle someone, put them on the bed and drag their sprite on it, to release click on the bed.

== Power Wires ==
 
Power wires are only available from yellow toolboxes, engineering vending machines or scattered about the station's maintenance-, construction- and storage-areas.
 
* All wires are electrified if connected to a power net (a charged SMES battery is attached to the wire), and you will get fried if you touch them.
* [[Insulated gloves]] negate any electrical shocks to the player.
 
=== How Do I Wire? ===
 
Wires are directionally dependent on where you set them down, and will apply adjacently to each "tile" you are standing by.
Wires will always face inwards to you, sort of like this:
 
[[File:Wire laying1.PNG|u see her lik dis]]
 
This image was made by standing in the center tile with a cable coil in hand and clicking on all 8 surrounding tiles.
 
In situations where you can't place a wire like this you have an alternative way. Just stand on a tile, face the direction you want it to go (ctrl+arrow key) and click the tile you're standing on.
 
[[File:Wire laying2.PNG|is so easy]]
 
This image was made by standing on the tile, pressing ctrl + left arrow key and then clicking the tile. The cable coil was in my active hand.
 
If you ever make a mistake with a wire, use the wirecutters to trim them! Simple as that. Wear insulated gloves if you value your life.
 
==== Knot Wiring ====
 
Let's say you have a situation that you need to fix:
 
[[File:Wiring situation.png|oh shit man how]]
 
The easiest method of wiring is knot-wiring. Also known as unsmooth or non-smooth wiring.
 
Fixing this is simple:
 
[[File:wire_1_1.PNG|yes]] → [[File:wire_1_2.PNG|yes yes]] → [[File:wire_1_3.PNG|wow]] Done.
 
You just position yourself properly and click the tile to lay down wire. Make sure you click on the plating (floor) and not the already laid wire. This is because:
 
[[File:wire_2_1.PNG|yes]] + [[File:wire_2_2.PNG|wait waht]] = [[File:wire_2_3.PNG|o god wow]]
 
This might look about the same as in the previous image, however it's not. In the previous image your ending result had three pieces of wire, one going from the east to the center, one going from the north to the center and one going from the west to the center. In this situation you have two pieces of wire. One going east to west and one going north to center. The two wires don't meet in the center, because the horizontal wire is going east-west without it having a point (or knot) in the center.
 
Knot wires (a.k.a nodes wires) also powers any machine on the same tile as them.
 
==== Smooth Wiring ====
 
Just click on wires that are "knotted" at on end (you just need to click on the wire, not the little knotted dot).
 
To fix this situation with smooth wire you'll have to follow the steps:
 
[[File:Wire_1_1.PNG|ok simple]] → [[File:Wire_3_2.PNG|so precision]] → [[File:Wire_3_3.PNG|such smooth]] → [[File:Wire_3_4.PNG|wow]] Done.
 
In this method you first lay one cable to go from one of the directions to the center (image 1). You then position yourself in another direction and click on the already laid wire piece (and not the floor!). This will make the already placed piece and the new piece combine into one smooth piece of wire (image 2). You then place another piece to go from the last remaining direction to the center (image 3) and click it from the last direction to make a 2nd smooth piece of wire (image 4).
 
This method often uses up more wire than dot-wiring, but it's prettier and usually preferred.
 
=== Connecting Wires ===
 
Two wires belongs to the same powernet if they have matching ends.
 
{|
|-
!style='background-color:green' | Connected cables
!
!style='background-color:red' | Not connected cables
|- valign="top"
| [[File:Connected.png|Connected wires]]
|
| [[File:Not_connected.png|Not connected wires]] [[File:Not_connected_2.PNG|No ends are matching, given only one cable is a node here]]
|-
|}
 
=== Connecting Machines ===
 
Machines are connected to powernets exclusively by nodes cables (a.k.a knot wires):
 
 
[[File:Wire_1_1.PNG|it's alive!]] + [[File:generator.png]] = <font color='green'>Connected</font>
 
[[File:Wire_3_2.PNG|booh!]] + [[File:generator.png]] = <font color='red'>Not connected</font>
 
[[File:wire_2_1.PNG|booh!]] + [[File:generator.png]] = <font color='red'>Not connected</font>
 
Please note that machines must also be anchored (generally wrenched down) to be connected.
 
'''Special cases''' :
*APC must be connected ''through a terminal'' (meaning you connect the terminal to the powernet),
*SMES input powernet must be connected ''through a terminal'', while SMES output powernet must be connected through a classic node wire under the SMES.
 
=== Wiring the [[Solars]] ===
 
Easiest method: just look at the animation until you get it:
 
[[File:Wiring.gif]]
 
=== Wire-net Reset ===
 
This is Byond's attempt to "reset" the whole power net in order to deal with new/removed wires that shift the power value of a whole system. It will cause APCs to stop charging for a moment, and in huge nets it can shut down the charging of all APCs for a while.
 
Don't mess with wires unless you have to, it causes problems to everyone in both OOC (potential lag) and IC (power loss).
 
== Pipes ==
 
Pipes are only constructed from [[Pipe Dispenser]]s in [[Atmospherics]].
To use a Pipe Dispenser, follow these steps:
#Put Dispenser in a powered area.
#Wrench Dispenser to lock it into place.
#Click on the Pipe Dispenser with an empty hand and select the pipes you wish to use.
#You have a pipe to play with now.
#Wrench Dispenser to make it mobile once more.
 
=== Placing and Removing Pipes ===
 
==== [[File:disposal_pipe.png|50px]] Disposal Pipes====
 
#Rotate the pipe to the direction you wish the pipe to be in.
#Wrench the pipe to the ground.
#Use a lit welder to fuse the pipe to the ground.
 
==== [[File:Gaspipe.png|50px]] Gas Pipes ====
 
#Rotate the pipe to the direction you wish (pay attention to gas pumps as they are direction dependent).
#Wrench into place.
#Turn on the pipe, if necessary.
 
==== How to Remove a Pipe ====
 
#Perform the step you used to set the pipe into place in reverse (make sure the pipe is powered off).
#Brace for any junk that might blast out of the pipe.
