Attach Wires

Here’s how to attach wires in Once Human:

  • Enter Build Mode: Press the ‘B’ key to enter build mode.
  • Activate Wire Placement: Press the ‘X’ key to start placing a wire. You’ll see a visual indicator of the wire following your cursor.
  • Connect the Wire: Hover over the power source you want to connect, such as a solar generator, and press ‘X’ to attach one end of the wire. Then, walk towards the structure you want to power, like an electric furnace, and press ‘X’ again to attach the other end.

The wire will automatically snap to valid connection points on power sources and appliances, making it easier to connect them. However, if you’re using electrical connectors, you’ll need to manually connect the wires to each point.

One common mistake is forgetting to add a wire to the connector and then to the generator or object you’re trying to power up.

Remove Wires

Here’s how to remove wires in Once Human:

  • Enter Build Mode: Press the ‘B’ key on your keyboard to access the build mode.
  • Target the Wire: Hover over the wire you want to remove. The wire should be highlighted in blue.
  • Remove the Wire: Press the ‘R’ key to remove the highlighted wire.

If you’re having trouble selecting the correct wire, try zooming in. This will give you a closer view and better control, making it easier to target the specific wire you want to remove without accidentally removing other structures.

You can also enter flight mode by pressing the tilde key (‘~’) while in build mode, which will allow you to get closer to the wires.
