Guide to Construction

This page needs to be reviewed/updated:
REASON: Missing a lot of mineral constructions, ex: plasma, gold, silver

This guide is not intended to cover advanced construction. For a list of advanced machinery and their parts, see the Guide to Advanced Construction.

Introduction to Construction

In order to fill many roles (such as Station Engineer), or to just snazz up your sweet maintenance bar, you're going to need to know how to build things!

This guide will cover all the basic tools and their uses (as well as special things they can do) along with a list of basic structures and how to build/deconstruct them.

First and foremost it's important to become familiar with all the tools involved in construction! Please consult the list below.

There are alot of abandoned rooms in maintenance that make good "practice areas" for you to practice construction.

Practice by fixing damaged floors, replacing lights, building doors & windows, etc.

Construction Tools - A quick rundown of basic tools and their more advanced counterparts.

Basic Tool	Advanced Tool	Usage	Notes
Crowbar	Jaws of Life	Prying things in/out of place	Can pry open unpowered airlocks/lift floor tiles Jaws of Life can pry open powered airlocks Can be used to remove damaged electronics Jaws of Life performs actions faster
Wirecutters	Jaws of Life	Snipping wires/grilles	Can snip fingertips off gloves Jaws of Life performs actions faster
Welding Tool	Experimental Welding Tool	Welding/slicing metal	Can seal airlocks/vents while on harm intent Can repair structures while on help intent Can repair robotic limbs (brute) Experimental welder regenerates fuel
Cable Coil	Cable Layer	Wiring systems together	Can repair robotic limbs (burn) Cable Layer rapidly spools and lays cable
Screwdriver	Power Drill	Securing/opening panels	Can open airlock panels for Hacking Can open vents to slide paper into them Power Drill performs actions faster
Wrench	Power Drill	Ratcheting/unsecuring objects	Used to deconstruct most things Can secure/unsecure most machinery Power Drill performs actions faster

Bluespace RPD upgrade can dispense pipes at range. Alt-click the RPD to change modes via radial menu. (You can also change modes via its popup window)

Wiring

An example of proper or 'smooth' wiring.

An example of a node. The round circle is a place to connect machinery like emitters.

An example of improper wiring. These wires aren't actually appropriately connected and may not transfer power as a result.

An example of standard station wiring.

Now that we've gone over the list of tools, it's important to understand how wiring in SS13 functions.

Outside of its use in repairing robotic limbs, mechs, and other things, cable coil is primarily used to route power to APCs and SMES arrays around the station.

• APCs are the power terminals located in each room that provide electricity to the Lighting, Equipment, and Environment systems for a designated area.
• APCs utilize a charging system and contain a single cell (a battery) that charges from the power grid that it's connected to.
• APCs which are not connected to the grid by wiring, or APCs which receive insufficient levels of power, will lose battery life.
• Wiring is used to connect APCs to the SMES arrays which gain charge from power sources (such as the engine) and distribute electricity.

As we can see, making sure we're properly wiring things is integral to the function of equipment and the station in general. If things are wired inappropriately, the APC may not receive power and the area you're either creating or repairing will be left in the dark.

There are a few important caveats before you start any wiring project.

• Wires connected to an active electrical grid will shock you and cause burn damage.
• Budget insulated gloves will either reduce or multiply damage from shocks.
• Insulated gloves will protect from electrical shocks entirely.

Basic Wiring

(Note: Regular tiles on the station will have floor tiles on top of them. You will need to use a crowbar to remove these tiles in order to place any wires down).

Wiring is fairly straightforward, though there's a few things to keep in mind when you're doing it.

• Wires can only ever be placed on plating or catwalk tiles.
• Wire placement is directional and will always orient toward your character.
• If you're placing a wire on a tile you're standing on it orient according to the direction you're facing.

In order to place wires you will need to be facing a catwalk or exposed plating with some cable coil in your hand.

Once you're ready with cable coil in hand, simply click on an adjacent tile with the wire in your hand to place down the wiring.

Here's a quick table explaining the different results you'll get based on your character's position.

• Tile Direction refers to which direction the tile is from the player's current position (the wire always points toward the player).
• Tile Directions such as Northeast, Northwest, Southeast, and Southwest indicate the tile is diagonal to the player.

Tile Direction	Wiring Result	Tile Direction	Wiring Result
West		East
North		South
Northeast		Northwest
Southeast		Southwest

Now that we understand how directional placement of wires functions, we can start wiring things together.

Before we do however there's two important features of wiring that need to be discussed!

In any wiring project there are "nodes" and "wires" which both serve special functions.

Wires are what actually transfer power while nodes allow special machinery (like SMES arrays, emitters, and shield generators) to hook up to the power grid.

Wiring Type	Explanation
Smooth Wiring
	Smooth wiring allows power to flow from point A to point B. This is the basic, efficient, and accepted wiring configuration.

In order to produce smooth wiring, move to the opposite side of the tile and click on the little circle (or wiring node) on the ground.

IE: If the tile was to the West of you initially, move two tiles West so that it's now facing East from you (the wire should be pointing away from your character).

If you don't smoothly wire your cables (and leave those little ball-shaped nodes everywhere), you're unlikely to create connections between pieces of wiring.

Make sure there's no unwanted nodes and all your cables are smooth, otherwise your wiring system likely won't transfer any electricity.

Wiring Type	Explanation
Node Wiring
	Node wiring is used for special equipment and electrifying grilles. Exposed nodes can cause electric shocks when touched.

In order to produce a wire node, click on a tile already occupied by a smooth cable.

You should always do your standard smooth wiring before creating any nodes to make sure your cables are properly connected.

If you're trying to make a node in the middle of a section of wire, it must be smoothly wired first.
