Construction
All this assumes you've figured out the game pretty well so far. You have, right?
Makin'
Weapons
Bombs
Butt bomb
Harmless prank. Works like a grenade.
You will need:
A butt A timer
To build:
Add the timer to the butt.
Suicide bomb vest
Despite the name, no bombs are actually involved anymore. The payload will be triggered upon death of whoever is wearing the vest, heating the mixture inside the beaker by 30 K (see ignition temperatures) when so equipped. If required, the payload can be removed with a wrench.
You will need:
A regular ballistic vest A health analyzer An igniter A grenade OR beaker (Only grenades with this sprite are compatible:) A screwdriver A wrench (optional)
To build:
Use a screwdriver on the igniter. Combine the igniter with the health analyzer. Secure the assembly with the screwdriver. Click on the assembly with the vest to combine them. If you intend to use the beaker, prepare a chemical mix of your choice. To attach a grenade, use it on the vest. To attach a beaker, click on it with the vest - not the other way around!
Rigged light tube/power cell
A rather uncommon and creative way to booby-trap machinery or whole rooms. It is not a bad idea to turn the power off before installing either of them.
You will need:
A light tube OR power cell A syringe of liquid plasma
To build:
Inject the light tube or power cell with plasma.
Pipe bomb
Not to be confused with the version traitors can order. Other materials can be used in place of welding fuel if available. Ordered by explosive power: phlogiston, CLF3, black powder or NI3. Plasmastone and erebite work differently in that they are crafted from custom metal sheets, then combined with one of the listed reagents.
You will need:
3 metal sheets A cable coil An igniter A timer A container (beaker, glass etc.) of welding fuel (20 units) A welder A screwdriver
To build:
Turn the metal sheets into a pipe frame. Use the welder on the frame. Fill the frame with welding fuel. Add some wires. Use a screwdriver on the igniter. Combine the igniter with the timer. Add the timer/igniter assembly to the pipe frame.
Mousetrap bomb
Compatible with pipe bombs (regular, Syndicate) and most grenades. They can be used as makeshift mines or to booby-trap backpacks and other containers. Can be taken apart with a wrench if required.
You will need:
A mousetrap A pipe bomb OR grenade (Only grenades with this sprite are compatible:
To build:
Attach the pipe bomb or grenade to the mousetrap. Don't forget to arm the mousetrap by clicking on it before use.

To build:
Fill the plasma tank with a gas mixture of your choice. Use a screwdriver on the igniter. Combine the igniter with the timer, proximity sensor or remote signaller. Secure the assembly with the screwdriver. Attach the assembly to the plasma tank. Weld a hole in the tank.
Transfer valve bomb
Big bombs for a big bang. Again, this guide won't tell you how to create the perfect explosive mix, so feel free to sign up as a scientist and mess around with the equipment in the laboratory. You should also use the mainframe and VR goggles to run simulations instead of testing your bombs on the station.
You will need:
A tank of heated gas (Tip: usually involves plasma.) A tank of a reactive gas (Tip: ...and oxygen.) A tank transfer valve A timer OR proximity sensor OR remote signaller
To build:
Connect the first tank to the transfer valve. Do the same with the other tank. Attach the timer, proximity sensor or remote signaller to the transfer valve.
Canister bomb
Massive bombs. As usual, the gas mixture is not revealed, only the assembly process.
You will need:
A canister full of an explosive gas mixture. A plasma tank filled to at least 700 kPa of pure plasma. A timer An igniter A cable coil A screwdriver A multitool A station bounced radio (optional) - Creates a command report upon priming. A remote signaller (optional) A crowbar (optional) A pair of wirecutters (optional) Suitable attachment class items (optional, see list below)
To build:
Use the screwdriver to unsecure the igniter. Add the multitool to the igniter. Add the plasma tank to the assembly. Secure the assembly with a screwdriver. Use the cable coil on the assembly. Add the timer to the assembly. Optionally, add the station bounced radio to your assembly. Optionally, add a remote signalling device to your assembly. Optionally, add up to three attachment class items to your assembly. Use the assembly on the canister.
The detonator assembly may have up to 3 attachment class items. Each attachment adds an additional wire to the assembly, each having a unique effect. You may have more than one of any type of attachment.
An analyzer (Detonates the bomb if the gas is leaking from the canister.) A power cell (Adds an additional detonation wire.) A flash (Occasionally flashes nearby people.) A sheet of paper and a pen (Adds a note to the canister bomb interface.) A bike horn (Self-explanatory.) A vuvuzela. (Ditto.)
Detonators may be disassembled if necessary. A screwdriver is required to unscrew and a crowbar is required to pry out the plasma tank, and everything else can be cut apart with the wirecutters. Attachments may be removed from the assembly with a screwdriver.
Stun gloves
Your intent must be set to harm in order for the gloves to work. They only hold one charge at a time.
You will need:
A pair of insulated gloves OR power gloves A charged power cell A cable coil
To build:
Add some wiring to the gloves. Use the power cell on the gloves to charge them.

You will need:
3 metal sheets A welder A staple gun
To build:
Turn the metal sheets into a pipe frame. Use the welder on the frame. Combine the the staple gun with the frame.
Flash/cell assembly
In addition to stunning people like any other flash, this overcharged version also sets them on fire. Unlike a regular flash, it will only work once.
You will need:
A flash A charged power cell A screwdriver
To build:
Open the flash's battery compartment with the screwdriver. Attach the power cell to the flash.
Poisoned surgery tools
Scalpels and saws can be dipped in a poison or other reagent for fun and wacky effects upon stabbing.
You will need:
A scalpel OR saw A filled container (beaker, glass etc.)
To build:

Miscellaneous assemblies
Timers and other basic tools may be put together as assemblies, most of which can function as bomb detonators. Not included is the health analyzer/igniter combination, a suicide bomb vest-specific trigger.
Igniter assembly
The bread-and-butter choice for most situations.
You will need:
An igniter A timer OR proximity sensor OR remote signaller A screwdriver
To build:
Use the screwdriver on the igniter. If you intend to employ a signaller, use the screwdriver on it as well. Combine the igniter with the timer, proximity sensor or signaller. Secure the assembly with the screwdriver.
Signaller assembly
A standalone, proximity- or timer-activated radio. Doesn't work as an attachment, but can come in handy to remotely trigger bombs or door bolts. The bike horn assembly is only useful for noise pollution, though.
You will need:
A remote signaller A proximity sensor OR timer OR bike horn A screwdriver
To build:
Use the screwdriver on the signaller (not required for horn assembly). Attach the signaller to the proximity sensor or timer. Secure the assembly with the screwdriver (not required for horn assembly).
Beaker assembly
These assemblies are quite popular to release chemical smoke from a safe distance - for the user at least. Deadly in the hands of a skilled chemist. When triggered, the igniter will heat the mixture by 30 K (see ignition temperatures). To detach the beaker, place the whole thing on the floor and use the context menu by right-clicking on it.
You will need:
A beaker An igniter assembly A screwdriver
To build:
If the assembly has been secured beforehand, undo that with the screwdriver. Prepare a chemical mix of your choice. Combine the igniter assembly with the beaker. Secure the beaker assembly with the screwdriver.

To build:
Turn the metal sheets into one set of light fixture parts. Attach the parts to a regular wall. Insert the light tube.
Building and fixing disposal pipes
Like most things in Space Station 13, the plumbing system is surprisingly deep. A skilled space plumber can set you up for a wild ride that'll send you racing through most of the station and spit you out from a mailbox. Now you can be that skilled plumber.
The building blocks
There's a few pipe dispensers scattered around the station. The most easily accessible one can be found in disposals. Pipes come in 8 variations, 5 of which the dispensers will provide:
Straight - Straight tube.
Bent - Tube bent at a 90 degree angle.
Junction - A three-way junction. The arrow indicates where items exit.
Y-junction - A three-way junction with another exit point.
Trunk - Entry and exit point for pipes. Disposal and mail chutes come pre-connected to these, but players can't connect on their own.
Mail-junction - Not available from the dispenser. A three-way junction with a filter that only allows items to pass through. People and creatures will be diverted away into the side-pipe. Visually distinguished from regular junctions by a red dot on the pipe.
Controlled pipe segments - Specialized equipment available to mechanics.
Managing your pipes
Pipes come in four states:
Free - Can be moved, rotated and flipped over by right-clicking on them.
Wrenched - Wrenched to the floor. Immobile and inoperable. You can walk over them and rotate them.
Welded - Welded to the floor. Immobile and can't be rotated. Fully operable.
Broken - Welded to the floor. Inoperable. Must be welded at all ends to remove.
You need three tools. A crowbar to remove the tiles covering the floor. This exposes existing pipes and lets you place new pipes. A wrench to fasten free pipes. A welding tool to make wrenched pipes operable or to loosen welded pipes.
Controlling the flow
Take these tips to heart and you'll be a plumbing like a champion in no time.
- T-ray scanners show you pipes hidden under floor tiles.
- Always wrench the pipe in place before welding it. Poorly secured pipes will break the floor tile covering it and fall out of place.
- Items will follow the pipeline from chute to exit point as long as every piece is connected, nothing is broken and there's no blockage.
- Items entering a junction from the wrong end (the side with the exit arrow), will randomly go out one of the two other sides.
- Fat people are poorly suited for pipes and can easily create a blockage. Blockages can be cleared by unwelding the blocked section.
- Pipelines ending in a regular pipe will shoot things out in a straight line. Trunks eject items in random directions.
- Combine with programmable electronics components to make some truly wild rides.
