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. | If you yourself are inside a locker, you can see your surroundings.

Every round, a random non-secure locker on the station becomes a bluespace locker. Bluespace lockers have entire rooms inside of them, and they are indistinguishable from normal lockers, except that when you go inside it you find yourself in a room.

If you want to do a job, like Station Engineer, you need to know how to build and deconstruct stuff.
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 Mechanical Toolbox on the station. They can also be made in an Autolathe or dispensed from a YouTool -vending machine.
|
|
|
|
|
Materials
To build anything, you need materials.
Keep in mind that almost any material can be used to make doors, floor tiles and statues.
Metal
|
Glass and Reinforced Glass
|
Plasteel
|
Rods
|
Floor Tiles
|
Planks
|
Bamboo
|
Snow
|
Alien Alloy
|

Constructions
Lattice
The basic base for all types of construction, this is placed directly in space.
 Lattice |
Requires to build | How to build | |
|---|---|---|---|
 x1
|
Use the rod on an empty space tile. | ||
| How to deconstruct | |||
| Tools |
Use wirecutters to cut the lattice into one rod. | ||
|
| |||
Catwalk
Just like a lattice, except you can place wires on it.
 Catwalk |
Requires to build | How to build | |
|---|---|---|---|
| x1
|
Use the rods on a lattice. | ||
| How to deconstruct | |||
| Tools |
Use wirecutters to cut the catwalk into 2 rods. | ||
|
| |||
Plating
The basic floor which you put things like wires and pipes upon. 'All' floors and walls are built on top of this.
 Plating |
Requires to build | How to build | |
|---|---|---|---|
 x1
|
Use a floor tile on a lattice. | ||
| How to deconstruct | |||
| Tools |
Use a crowbar on broken plating, otherwise it does not deconstruct. Can be deconstructed with an RCD. | ||
|
| |||
| How to repair | |||
| Tools |
Use a welder on broken plating to repair it. | ||
|
| |||
Floor Tile
This is the basic "nice" floor, this floor should be considered used in all public areas, hence why there's none of these in maintenance tunnels.
 Floor Tile |
Requires to build | How to build | |
|---|---|---|---|
| x1
|
Use a floor tile on plating. | ||
| How to deconstruct | |||
| Tools |
Use a crowbar on a floor tile to remove it. It will be destroyed if broken. | ||
|
| |||
Wood Floor Tile
This is a fancy floor, used in the library and similar places.
 Wood Floor Tile |
Requires to build | How to build | |
|---|---|---|---|

|
Use a wood tile on plating. Wood tiles can be made of planks of wood. | ||
| How to deconstruct | |||
| Tools |
Detach the tile with a screwdriver. | ||
|
| |||
Reinforced Floor
This is a reinforced floor, used in science and similar areas for better protection against fire or explosions.
 Reinforced Floor |
Requires to build | How to build | |
|---|---|---|---|
 x1
|
Use a metal sheet on plating. | ||
| How to deconstruct | |||
| Tools |
Use a wrench to dismantle it into one metal sheet. | ||
|
| |||
Carpeted Floor Tile
This is a carpeted floor, used to make your office look fancy.

| How to deconstruct | |||
| Tools |
Use a crowbar to pick up the carpet tile. | ||
|
| |||
Light Floor Tile
A fancy, more futuristic floor that lights up its surroundings. The AI can remotely change its color, people can do so as well with a screwdriver.

|
| ||
| How to deconstruct | |||
| Tools |
| ||
|
| |||
Walls
Normal 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.

| Tools |
| ||
|
| |||
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
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.
- Otherwise, same as a regular wall.

To turn a normal wall into a hidden door, deconstruct it until the final screwdriving of the girder, and instead use 2 sheet of metal on the girder. | ||
| How to deconstruct | |||
| Tools |
| ||
|
| |||
Normal/Reinforced Windows
Windows are aesthetically quite pleasing because they are almost invisible. You can build two types of windows:
- 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.
- One Direction: Stops movement only from the way it faces.

Reflector
This is an angular beam reflector. Any energy projectiles hitting it will be reflected at an angle depending on rotation. There are also "box" reflectors that change the direction of struck projectiles to face a single way, regardless of where they impact the reflector. The supermatter engine uses reflectors to make its emitters' beams go through a single path. Ballistic projectiles will not be reflected!
- You can weld it to anchor it to or unanchor it from the floor, or to repair it.
- Use a screwdriver to lock or unlock its rotation.
- Alt-click it to rotate its angle.

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. Keep in mind that Uranium doors put out a pulse of radiation every time they're opened.

Lockers
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 and 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, emag item, or with enough damage. If you don't want to take out your id to open these every time, you can alt-click them to lock/unlock them.
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.
Every round, a random non-secure locker on the station becomes a bluespace locker. Bluespace lockers have entire rooms inside of them, and they are indistinguishable from normal lockers, except that when you go inside it you find yourself in a room. If you destroy the bluespace locker, it randomly replaces a different locker on the station.
Coffins count as lockers.

Beds
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 
Roller Bed, which is extremely useful for 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:
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.
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:
The easiest method of wiring is knot-wiring. Also known as unsmooth or non-smooth wiring.
Fixing this is simple:
→ 
→ 
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:
+ 
= 
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:
→ 
→ 
→ 
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.
| Connected cables | Not connected cables | |
|---|---|---|
|
 
|
Connecting Machines
Machines are connected to powernets exclusively by nodes cables (a.k.a knot wires):
+ 
= Connected
+ = Not connected
+ = Not connected
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:
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 Dispensers 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
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.
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.
