This page contains most of the typical construction recipes on Aurora. These recipes range from basic construction materials to advanced machines.


== [[Guide to Construction Materials|Base Materials]] ==
Construction recipes have been condensed into a few large sections. Each of these sections can be expanded to show the individual recipes. Each item has all necessary steps including: Construction, deconstruction, and, where applicable, repair steps. These steps have icons whenever possible.

Lattices are the most basic form of support. They are just collections of rods connected together that allow you to stand. You can move down through lattices, although this comes at the cost of not being airtight.

* Stand in the desired spot
* Click the [[File:Metal.png|20px]] Metal and choose ''Wall Girder''
* Use 2 sheets of [[File:Metal.png|20px]] Metal on the resulting wall girder


Repair:
To construct a lattice:
*Use welder on damaged wall.
*Use [[File:Rods.png]] rods on open space.
|
* Use a [[File:welder.gif|20px]] Welder to remove the wall's plating
* Use a [[File:Wrench.png|20px]] Wrench to disassemble the wall girder

! style='background-color:Chocolate;'|Name
*Unfortunately, the only way to remove plating is via an RCD, which can either be found, purchased from a [[Merchant]], or the RCD that the [[Chief Engineer]] spawns with.
! style='background-color:Chocolate;'|Picture
===Floors===
! style='background-color:Chocolate;'|Requirement
Every kind of flooring is constructed in the same way:
! style='background-color:Chocolate;'|Construction
#Create floor tiles using their respective material, as shown [[#Materials|before]].
! style='background-color:Chocolate;'|Destruction
#Use the floor tiles on bare [[File:Plating.png]] plating.
|-
While the way of placing flooring is the same, the process of removing it is different for different types of flooring.
!False Wall
Note that typically, removing flooring will give back one tile of that piece of flooring. If the floor is too damaged, however, no tiles will be returned.

To construct a false wall:
*Make a wall girder as shown above.
*Use a [[File:Crowbar.png]] crowbar to displace the girder.
*Use [[File:Metal.png]] steel to finish the wall.
To construct a 'reinforced' false wall:

*Select "miscellaneous construction"
*Select either "dark office chair", "light office chair", or "plain padded chair"
**Similar to the office and padded chair, steel can also make sofas. Sofas, unlike chairs, have different parts allowing you to make as long or short of a sofa as you want.
**Within the "miscellaneous construction" menu, you can select the left, right, middle, and corner sofa options to make a sofa of any length.
*Both padded chairs and sofas are constructed without padding. To add padding (and color) to both, use either leather, cloth, or carpet on the chair or sofa.
To deconstruct a chair:
*Use a [[File:Wrench.png]] wrench on the chair to deconstruct it back into its base material.

===[[File:Apc.png]]APC===
<div class="mw-collapsible-content">
Area Power Controllers (APC) are what powers each room around the vessel. Every piece of machinery from guns to newsreaders and even doors pull power from APCs. In turn, APCs draw power from the vessel's power grid.
These are most often where electrical issues lie, whether they be a virus that blue-screens the controller to an imbalance if input-output.
To construct an APC:
*Use [[File:Metal.png]] steel in your active hand.
*Select "construction recipes"
*Select "apc frame"
*Use the APC frame on the desired wall.
*Use [[File:CableCoils.png]] cable coil to wire the APC to the electrical grid.
**'''Important:''' Green wires are used for 'department' grids which connect to the associated department sub station. Red wires are the 'main' grid which connects to the engine. '''Always''' connect APCs to the green department grid unless it is an emergency.
*Fit a [[File:Circuit_board.png]] power control board into the frame.
*Use a [[File:Screwdriver_tool.png]] screwdriver to secure the electronics.
*Insert a [[File:Power_cell.png]] power cell into the frame.
*Use a [[File:Crowbar.png]] crowbar to shut the cover and finish the APC.
**Note: New APCs start with a locked cover and with the main breaker off. Use your ID to unlock the interface and cover.
**Another note: APCs can only be built where there is a defined Vessel Area that does not already have an APC. To make a new Vessel Area, use the Chief Engineer's blueprints.
To deconstruct the APC while it is '''broken''':
*Use a [[File:Welderon.gif]] welder to cut open the broken cover.
*Pull out the [[File:Power_cell.png]] with a free hand.
*Use a [[File:Screwdriver_tool.png]] screwdriver to unsecure the broken electronics.

=== [[File:Gravity_activated.gif|32px]] Gravity Generator===
<div class="mw-collapsible-content">
Gravity Generators are some of the most useful and complex pieces of machinery on any vessel. They are the sole reason, aside from magboots, that anyone is capable of walking on a vessel as well as having objects and processes replicate those of a planet. There is usually just one on each vessel, but these very delicate devices are vital to standard operations and should be well-maintained and powered. While some disturbances may happen that lead to the temporary suspension of gravity, these devices will keep running as long as they are powered and working.
To REPAIR a gravity generator:
*Before starting, put on a radiation suit in case the generator outputs radiation during repairs.
*Use a [[File:Crowbar.png]] crowbar to pry open the back panel.
*Use a [[File:Screwdriver_tool.png]] screwdriver to secure the screws on the framework.

This page contains most of the typical construction recipes on Aurora. These recipes range from basic construction materials to advanced machines.

Construction recipes have been condensed into a few large sections. Each of these sections can be expanded to show the individual recipes. Each item has all necessary steps including: Construction, deconstruction, and, where applicable, repair steps. These steps have icons whenever possible.

To better navigate this page, use the table of contents below by clicking the blue arrow.

Contents

Construction materials.gifMaterials

A selection of materials made from base construction materials.

Rods.png Metal Rods

Rods are equally as useful as steel. They are used to make a wide variety of useful items that are commonly used around the vessel.

To make metal rods:

  1. UseMetal.pngsteel in your active hand to open the construction menu.
  2. Select “construction recipes”
  3. Select “metal rod”

From there, use the metal rods as needed. They have their own construction menu as well.

To deconstruct metal rods:

  • Click on the stack of rods with a Welderon.gif welder.

Floor tile.png Floor tiles

As the name implies, these are used to cover plating with tiles that are nicer to look at.

To make floor tiles:

  1. Use Metal.png steel in your active hand to open the construction menu.
  2. Select “construction recipes”
  3. Select either “regular floor tile” or “full regular floor tile”. The difference is looks, primarily.
  4. Floor tiles CANNOT be deconstructed after they are made. Make sure to not make too much!

Glass r.pngReinforced Glass

Reinforced glass is used in almost the exact same way as standard glass, however it is stronger and is typically the only form of glass used on ship (aside from broscillate glass).

To make reinforced glass:

  • Use a stack of Rods.png rods on Glass.png glass.
  • Reinforced glass CANNOT be separated back into Rods.png metal rods and Glass.png glass after it is made.

Flooring and support.gifFlooring and Support

The what and how that keeps you grounded.

Lattice.png Lattice

Lattices are the most basic form of support. They are just collections of rods connected together that allow you to stand. You can move down through lattices, although this comes at the cost of not being airtight.

To construct a lattice:

  • Use Rods.png rods on open space.

To deconstruct a lattice:

  • Use aWelderon.gif welder on the Lattice.png lattice to cut it back into Rods.png rods.

Plating.png Plating

Plating is the bare minimum for airtight flooring. Similar to Lattice.png lattices, you can stand on plating, however you cannot move down unlike lattices. Plating is airtight, however.

To construct plating:

  • Use Floor tile.png floor tiles on a Lattice.png lattice.

To deconstruct plating:

  • Unfortunately, the only way to remove plating is via an RCD, which can either be found, purchased from a Merchant, or the RCD that the Chief Engineer spawns with.

Floors

Every kind of flooring is constructed in the same way:

  1. Create floor tiles using their respective material, as shown before.
  2. Use the floor tiles on bare Plating.png plating.

While the way of placing flooring is the same, the process of removing it is different for different types of flooring. Note that typically, removing flooring will give back one tile of that piece of flooring. If the floor is too damaged, however, no tiles will be returned.

  • Floor.png Steel floors: Crowbar.png Crowbar
  • WoodFloor.png Wood floors: Screwdriver tool.png Screwdriver
  • Enginefloor.png Reinforced floors: Wrench.png Wrench

If you are unsure how to remove a certain type of flooring, just examine the floor. Towards the bottom of the examine message, the required tool will be listed.

Walls and structures.gifWalls and Structures

Rated the best way to hold an atmosphere by 9 out of 10 Atmospheric Technicians!

Wall generic.png Wall

This is a standard steel wall. It prevents passage, blocks vision, and can contain atmosphere within a room.

To make a steel wall:

  • Stand in the desired location of the wall.
  • Use Metal.png steel in your active hand.
  • Select "construction recipes"
  • Select "wall girders"
  • Use at least 2 sheets of Metal.png steel on the girders.

A wall can be damaged in numerous ways. To repair a wall:

  • Use a Welderon.gif welder on the damaged wall.

To deconstruct a wall:

  • Use a Welderon.gif welder to cut away the wall's plating
    • Note: If the wall is damaged, the wall must be repaired before it can be deconstructed.
  • Either use a Crowbar.png crowbar to dislodge the girder allowing it to move, or use a Wrench.png wrench to disassemble the girder back into Metal.png steel.

Wall reinforced.png Reinforced Wall

The reinforced wall is much like the standard wall. The primary difference, aside from looks, is that the reinforced wall is sturdier and can take more damage, and also takes longer to deconstruct.

To make a reinforced wall:

  • Make a wall girder as described above.
  • Use a Screwdriver tool.png screwdriver on the girders.
  • Use Metal r.png plasteel to reinforce the girder.
  • Use Metal r.png plasteel again to reinforce the wall again and finish the wall.

To repair a reinforced wall, use the same method as a standard wall.

To deconstruct a reinforced wall:

  • Use Wirecutters.png wirecutters to cut the outer grille.
  • Use a Screwdriver tool.png screwdriver to expose the reinforced cover.
  • Use a Welderon.gif welder to cut the reinforced cover.
  • Use a Crowbar.png crowbar to remove the reinforced cover.
  • Use a Wrench.png wrench to loosen the support rods.
  • Use a Welderon.gif welder to cut the support rods.
  • Use a Crowbar.png crowbar to remove the inner cover.
  • Use a Screwdriver tool.png screwdriver to unsecure the inner supports.
  • Use Wirecutters.png wirecutters to cut the inner supports.
  • Use a Wrench.png wrench to disassemble the girder.

Grille.png Grille

A grille is a pattern of overlapping metal rods. They are most commonly used in a role similar to fencing, protecting external parts of the vessel that need to be exposed to the void but also need to be physically protected. Light and atmosphere can pass through grilles, however physical objects cannot.

To construct a grille:

  • Use Rods.png rods in hand.
  • Select "grille"

Grilles cannot be repaired, and deconstructing them is as easy as constructing them.

To deconstruct grilles:

  • Use Wirecutters.png wirecutters on the grille.
  • Alternatively, use brute force and hit the grille until it breaks.

False Wall.gif False walls

False walls look and act like normal walls in every way except they can be opened when someone pushes on them. Useful for making secret hideouts or being an overachiever.

To construct a false wall:

  • Make a wall girder as shown above.
  • Use a Crowbar.png crowbar to displace the girder.
  • Use Metal.png steel to finish the wall.

To construct a 'reinforced' false wall:

  • Make a wall girder as shown above.
  • Use a Screwdriver tool.png screwdriver on the girder.
  • Use a Wrench.png wrench to displace the girder.
  • Use Metal r.png plasteel to reinforce the girder.
  • Use Metal r.png plasteel on the girder again to add the external cover.

Deconstructing false walls uses the same method as their normal versions.

Windows.gifWindows

Like a wall, but weaker and see through. Look at those pretty stars!

Glass panel.png Glass Panel

A glass panel is as it appears, a thin sheet of glass that faces one direction. They are useful as dividers within a room but are weak and not generally used beyond that role. They can hold an atmosphere, although glass panels should never be relied on for that.

To construct a glass panel:

  • Use either Glass.png normal glass or Glass r.png reinforced glass in your active hand.
  • Face the desired direction for the glass panel.
  • Click "one direction"
  • If the panel is facing the wrong direction, right-click and select rotate or alt-click on the panel to change its direction.
  • Use a Screwdriver tool.png screwdriver to fasten the panel down.

Alternatively:

  • Use either Glass.png standard glass or Glass r.png reinforced glass on a Grille.png grille.
  • Right-click and select rotate or alt-click the panel until it is facing the correct direction.
  • Use a Screwdriver tool.png screwdriver to fasten the panel down.

To deconstruct a glass panel:

  • Use a Screwdriver tool.png screwdriver to unfasten the panel.
  • Use a Wrench.png wrench to disassemble the glass panel.

Alternatively:

  • Use an object to smash the panel.

Windoor.png Windoor

Windoors are similar in size to a glass panel except they can open and close like an airlock. They are very useful for smaller areas where an airlock may too large, or as a way to keep an area open while still have ID restrictions on certain spaces, like the medical lobby. They are best used alongside glass panels.

Gravity activated.gif Gravity Generator

Gravity Generators are some of the most useful and complex pieces of machinery on any vessel. They are the sole reason, aside from magboots, that anyone is capable of walking on a vessel as well as having objects and processes replicate those of a planet. There is usually just one on each vessel, but these very delicate devices are vital to standard operations and should be well-maintained and powered. While some disturbances may happen that lead to the temporary suspension of gravity, these devices will keep running as long as they are powered and working.

To REPAIR a gravity generator:

  • Before starting, put on a radiation suit in case the generator outputs radiation during repairs.
  • Use a Crowbar.png crowbar to pry open the back panel.
  • Use a Screwdriver tool.png screwdriver to secure the screws on the framework.
