 === How Do I Wire? ===
-After a change june 2019, wires will automatically connect to other wires on tiles in cardinal directions. To place, lift any floor tile with a [[Engineering_items#Crowbar|crowbar]] [[File:Crowbar.png]] to reach the plating. Then click the plating while holding cable coil in your hand to place the wire. To remove wires, use [[Engineering_items#Wirecutters|wirecutters]] [[File:Wirecutters.png]] on them. Powered wires will automatically electrify [[Guide_to_construction#Grille|grilles]] and power some [[Machines|machines]] on top of them.

 === Connecting [[Machines|Machines]] ===

@@ Line 1,929: / Line 1,929: @@
 Most [[Machines|machines]] are connected to powernets wirelessly by being in an arbitrary "area" containing a charged [[APC]]. Though some [[Machines|machines]] must be connected by having a powered wire under them.
-Please note those [[Machines|machines]] must also be anchored (generally wrenched down) to be connected.

 '''Special cases''' :
-*[[#APC|APCs]] are connected to an adjacent powered wire with a special terminal, by doing the cable coil construction step.
+*[[#APC|APCs]] are connected to an adjacent knotted wire with a special terminal, by doing the cable coil step.
-*An exception to the cardinal function is [[Engineering_items#SMES_Cell|SMES]], which has an input an output wire next to each other without being connected.
+*[[Engineering_items#SMES_Cell|SMES]] input powernet must be connected ''through a terminal'', while SMES output powernet must be connected through a classic node wire under the SMES.
