Guide to Construction: Difference between revisions

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 [[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]].

{{Item

===Catwalk===

Just like a lattice, except you can place wires on it.

==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.

{| class="wikitable" border="1" cellspacing="0" style="width:80%; background-color:#FFFFFF;"

|}

====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.

*Otherwise, same as a regular wall.

#Use wrench on the girder and wait a few seconds for it to dislodge.

#Use the remaining 2 sheets of <font color="gray">'''metal'''</font>, or <font color="gray">'''plasteel'''</font> for a reinforced type, on the girder.

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.

===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.

{| class="wikitable" border="1" cellspacing="0" style="width:80%; background-color:#FFFFFF;"

! rowspan="2" style="background-color:#FFEE88;" |[[File:Glass_panel.png|64px|One Directional Glass]] [[File:Glass_wall.png|64px|Full Glass Wall]]<br>Windows<br>[[File:Glass_panel_r.png|64px|One Directional Reinforced Glass]] [[File:Glass_wall_r.png|64px|Full Reinforced Glass Wall]]<br>Reinforced Windows

! colspan="1" style="background-color:#FFDD66; width:20%" |Tools

| colspan="3" rowspan="2" |Normal Window:

#'''Screwdriver''' to unscrew the window from the floor.

#'''Wrench''' to deconstruct the window.

<br />

# '''Weld''' the window on '''harm intent''' to heat the security screws.

# '''Screwdriver''' to unscrew the security screws.

# '''Wrench''' to unbolt the window from the window from the floor.

# '''Wrench''' to deconstruct the window.

Hitting the pane repeatedly with a weapon will smash it into a glass shard or, if reinforced glass, a glass shard and a metal rod.

===Other===

====Grille====

{{anchor|Grilles}}

Grilles are usually used in combination with directional windows. They allow gases and energy rounds to pass through them, but stop other objects. They can also be electrified for high security areas by building them on top of a live power wire.

*Keeping people in or out.

*Securing an area with electrified grilles.

! rowspan="2" style="background-color:#cce6ff;" |[[File:windoor.gif|64px|Windoor]]<br>Windoor

{{anchor|Button}}

This is a button - it can remotely control an airlock. You can also put a signaler in one to have it pulse the signaler when pressed.

====Reflector====

{{anchor|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.

====Turret====

{{anchor|Turrets}}

To ensure no one trespasses an area. Its options are (first option is the default setting):

*'''Status: ''On/Off''''' - wether the turret's power is on or off.

*'''Behaviour control are ''locked/unlocked''''' - can be unlocked with a Security level ID.

**'''Neutralize All Non-Security and Non-Command Personnel: ''No/Yes''''' - self explanatory.

**'''Neutralize All Unidentified Life Signs: ''Yes/No''''' - neutralizes aliens.

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

==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:

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:

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).

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.

{|

===Connecting Machines===

Machines are connected to powernets exclusively by nodes cables (a.k.a knot wires):

'''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:

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.

#You have a pipe to play with now.

#Wrench Dispenser to make it mobile once more.

===Placing and Removing Pipes===

====[[File:disposal_pipe.png|64px]] 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|64px]] 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).
