# Floor

## Construction

###  Lattice

```
The basic base for all types of construction, this is placed directly in space.
Place by having rods in your hand, and clicking on a empty space tile.

```

###  Plating

```
The basic floor which you put things like wires and pipes upon, 'all' floor is built ontop of this.
Place by having the floor tile in your hand, and click on a lattice.

```

###  Steel Floor

```
This is the basic "nice" floor, this floor should be considered used in all public areas, hence why
there's none of these in maintence.
 Place by having the floor tile in your hand, and click on a Plating tile.

```

###  Light Floor

```
 *Assuming there already is a plating*
 Use the wire on glass
 Use the metal on the tile you get
 Place the light tile on the plating

```

## Deconstruction

```
 For all floors, use a crowbar on a floor tile to remove it

```

```
 If you're working on a light floor, you can further dismantle the light floor tile:
   Use a crowbar on the light tile to remove the metal
   Use wirecutters on the resulting tile to separate wires from glass

```

```
 An RCD can completely deconstruct a tile, opening it into space

```
