* '''[[Insulated Gloves]]''' Hackables have power lines, and cutting/pulsing these without gloves can harm you.

* '''[[Wirecutters]]''' for cutting and mending wires. Also a necessary tool
* '''[[Multitool]]''' for pulsing wires; not necessary for most hacking, but makes life a lot easier.

Both internal and external access airlocks are hackable. Wires are randomized at the start of each round, but are standardized throughout the station, e.g. every orange wire might toggle the bolts. This is probably where you'll be doing the most of your hacking. Remember, cutting power to the door will stop everything else from working.
 
# Screwdriver in hand, click on the airlock to open the panel and expose the wiring.
# With multitool, wirecutters, or an empty hand, click on the airlock to access the wiring.
# Fiddle with the wires by pulsing to test each one and cutting what you need to.
# Screwdriver the door again to shut the panel. If the panel is open and you don't have a screwdriver, you can open it by using your ID on it.
 
* There are two main power wires and two backup power wires.
* Disabling main power will make the backup work in 10 seconds. Disabling both will make door lose power until something is restored.
** If the door is unpowered, it can be opened with a crowbar, unless the bolts are down.
* Disabling AI control will make AI/Borgs unable to interact with this door; they can still hack in by either of power wires. It takes around a minute, and once the door is hacked, they'll be able to use it without AI control wire forever.
* Disabling safety will make the door close even if there is a human in it.
* Disabling timing will make it close almost instantly.

Both internal and external access airlocks are hackable. Wires are randomized at the start of each round, but are standardized throughout the station, e.g., every orange wire might toggle the bolts. This is probably where you'll be doing the most of your hacking. Remember, cutting power to the door will stop everything else from working.
==== Airlock Strategies ====


# Screwdriver in hand, click on the airlock to open the panel and expose the wiring
# With multitool, wirecutters, or an empty hand, click on the airlock to access the wiring.
# Fiddle with the wires by pulsing to test each one and cutting what you need to.
# Screwdriver the door again to shut the panel. Of the panel is open and you don' have a screwdriver, you can open it by using your ID on it.
* There are two main power wires and two backup power wires.
* Disabling main power will make the backup work in 10 seconds. Disabling both will make door lose power until something is restored.
** If the door is unpowered, it can be opened with a crowbar, unless the bolts are down.
* Disabling AI control will make AI/Borgs unable to interact with this door; they can still hack in by either of power wires. It takes around a minute, and once the door is hacked, they'll be able to use it without AI control wire forever.
* Disabling safety will make the door close even if there is a human in it.
* Disabling timing will make it close almost instantly.
==== Airlock Strategies ====
* '''Ghetto hacking''' involves accessing a useless airlock and cutting all of the wires in order until the bolts drop, making a note of the wire you just cut. Keeping this in mind, you can now open restricted doors by cutting all the wires except the bolt control and then crowbarring that fucker open. Useful if you don't have a multi-tool. Note that this is a bad idea if you lack gloves.

Note that this is a bad idea if you lack gloves.
* '''Open ID restricted doors''' by pulsing a main power wire and then crowbarring it open. If it's bolted, be sure to pulse the bolt wire before you kill the power or you're shit outta luck for a minute. (You can shorten this by cutting and mending the power wire, but by then the power would probably have reset anyway. Still, taking 20 seconds less to unhack the Escape shuttle doors is always good)

(You can shorten this by cutting and mending the power wire, but by then the power would probably have reset anyway. Still, taking 20 seconds less to unhack the Escape shuttle doors is always good)
* '''Create a pain in the ass obstacle''' by dropping the bolts, cutting all the wires, and then welding the door shut. This is especially effective if you happen to have the only pair of insulated gloves on the station.

* '''Remotely pulse an airlock''' by attaching a signaler, which when signaled pulses the wire it's attached to. This allows you to remotely bolt and unbolt a door, for instance. Be sure to turn off the speaker so no one can hear it being toggled.

* '''Use multitools for bolted ''' as they are awesome. First find two wires of importance. The bolts wire, and the main power wire. Pulse a random door to find out the wires. If you hear sparks, see your health going down or see the message "You feel a powerful shock coursing through your body!", close that hacking window and move onto another door. Once you got the main power wire, head to an unbolted door, pulse the wire, crowbar it open. You get a larger window of time to crowbar, and you can do it without gloves. If a door is bolted, pulse the bolts wires, and go and cut the power then crowbar it.

#* '''Proceed wire''': ''Pulsing'' will reduce the clock, making your life that much harder. ''Cutting'' this wire while the bomb is live will explode the bomb!
#* '''Activate wire''': ''Pulsing'' a bomb that isn't live will start the countdown and ''cutting'' a bomb that IS live will stop the countdown. If you've identified this wire, you've won!

Keep in mind that randomly pulsing a live bomb carries a 20% risk of sudden death, but randomly cutting carries a 40% risk. Ultimately you will HAVE to cut a wire to stop the explosion, but with a little research with pulsing you can improve your success rate.
