Latest revision as of 21:11, 31 March 2025

This page needs to be reviewed/updated.
REASON: This page needs to be checked for the following: Template Read-ability, Possible outdated Icons and Missing items (if they're not there add them)
PRIORITY: Medium

Items

Cable Coil
Cable Coil
  • Found in: Nearly everywhere
  • Used for: Laying electrical wires, building things that use electricity
  • Strategy: Wire is a resource, and can be used in many constructions and to lay down power lines. Make sure all APCs are connected to the main lines with wires, or you'll have black outs.
Description

Comes in many fun colors. Can be laid down on the plating to distribute electrical power. Automatically connects to other wires on cardinal tiles. Read the guide to wiring to see how. Make sure you don't touch wired wires on the ground without insulated gloves.

By using wires in hand, you can turn them into , which are ghetto restraints used to tie someone down.

Power Cell
Power Cell
Description

Can be recharged in a Cell Charger.
Comes in five varieties:

  • Standard (1 kW)
  • High-Capacity (10 kW)
  • Super-Capacity (20 kW)
  • Hyper-Capacity (30 kW)
  • Bluespace (40kW)

Tools

Rapid Construction Device (RCD)
Rapid Construction Device (RCD)

Found in: EVA, Engi-Vend
Used for: Making and destroying walls, doors, and floors.

Description

An experimental device which can build, or deconstruct areas rapidly. This is held in the EVA for emergencies (and is the Chief Engineer's responsibility). However they can be made in hacked autolathes as well.

Use this tool in hand to open a radial menu, where you can choose mode and change many settings, such as airlock access, airlock type and window type. Then click on an area or object with it to utilize the set settings.

  • Build Floors (2 Ammo)
  • Build a Wall (16 Ammo)
  • Build a wall on top of a girder (8 Ammo)
  • Build a Grille (4 Ammo)
  • Build a Window (8 Ammo)
  • Build a Reinforced Window (12 Ammo)
  • Build an airlock (16 Ammo)
  • Deconstruct a girder(13 Ammo)
  • Deconstruct a wall(26 Ammo) (Can't deconstruct reinforced walls, unless it's a cyborg or mech RCD)
  • Deconstruct a floor tile into space(33 Ammo)
  • Deconstruct a grille(4 Ammo)
  • Deconstruct a window(8 Ammo)
  • Deconstruct an airlock(32 Ammo)


Can be loaded with Compressed Matter Cartridges and regular metal and glass sheets. One Cartridge holds 40 units, with 160 being the maximum. Be forewarned that changing RCD mode can cause it to emit sparks, which can cause fires in plasma-rich environiments. It also can robust the shit out people. Or AIs, if needed.

  • Can be upgraded with an RCD advanced design disk, which can be printed from the engineering protolathe after research. This lets the RCD create:
    • Wired/wrenched machine frames
    • Computer frames
    • Simple circuits, which contain the designs for firelock, air alarm, fire alarm, apc circuits and basic power cells. These work the same as the engineering cyborg's Electroadaptive Pseudocircuit.

  • Can also be upgraded with an Advanced RCD silo link upgrade, which can be printed from the engineering protolathe after research. With this upgrade, the RCD can be used on an Ore Silo to permanently link it. Afterwards, the RCD will pull materials directly from that silo, and will no longer need to be reloaded manually.

Description

The RLD has 3 different modes:

  • Permanent Light Collection: The RLD can attach lights to the floor or to the wall. These lights will burn forever as long as the APC in the room is powered.
  • Light Launcher: The RLD launches glowsticks at a distance
  • Deconstruct: Tears apart wall/floor lights

Crowbar
Crowbar
  • Found in: Nearly everywhere
  • Used for: Opening airlocks, breaking things.
  • Strategy: If the power goes out on the station, you will need a crowbar to open doors. Otherwise it's just for breaking things.
Description

The crowbar can pry open things or pry closed things and is used in deconstructing objects like computers and airlocks. It will open powered down doors and fire doors. You can use it to remove floor tiles, especially useful when they are damaged or you believe wires have been cut. Comes in two flavors, gunmetal grey and robust red.

Screwdriver
Screwdriver
Description

A simple, but often needed tool. Everything from APCs to windows to computers can be unscrewed. Grilles can be unscrewed and pulled away instead of broken. A screwdriver to the eyes is a dangerous weapon.

Wirecutters
Wirecutters
Description

More or less an undo tool with wires. Can be used to disable cameras, and needed to take apart most machines. Can also be used to deconstruct grilles instantly.

Wrench
Wrench
  • Found in: Nearly everywhere
  • Used for: Deconstruction, attaching bolts
  • Strategy: Wrenches are usually used to take things apart, like wall girders, or tables. Only the emitters and computers use them in construction stages. They either fasten bolts, or take apart bolts.
Description

This tool is used more to take the station apart than to put it together. Most departments need one to secure some machine or another.

Welding Tool

  • Found in: Auxiliary Tool Storage, Engineering, EVA, Primary Tool Storage, R&D, Robotics
  • Used for: Sealing airlocks, construction and deconstruction. Fighting aliens.
  • Strategy: You can cut all manner of things apart, from lockers (open locker, click while lit) to walls. OR, You can weld shut doors and lockers. It is useless when out of fuel.
Description

A must have for engineers. Most modifications you make to the station will require this tool. It does have an open flame, so it will light everything from cigarettes to plasma. Use it as a weapon against weeds and vines. Don't refuel it when lit unless you want an explosion. Be sure to use eye protection unless you like slowly going blind.

You can get an industrial version with double fuel capacity from the welding lockers from Engineering, ordering one from Cargo or from a hacked vending machine.


Industrial Welding Tool
  • Found in: Engi-Vend, Engineering, Cargo
  • Used for: Welding stuff, even better
