How to Manage Power Wires in Once Human

In the game Once Human, wires play a crucial role in powering your base and its structures by transmitting electricity from a power source like a solar generator to your electric appliances. To ensure a proper flow of electricity, you must connect and disconnect wires as needed throughout the game. Here’s a simple guide on how to effectively manage power wires in Once Human.

How to Remove Wire in Once Human

• Enter Build Mode: Press the B key on your keyboard to access the building mode for editing structures and components.
• Target the Wire: Use your mouse to hover over the wire you wish to remove. Look for a highlighting effect to confirm you have selected the correct wire.
• Remove the Wire: Once you have targeted the wire, press the R key on your keyboard to delete it from the game.

If you find it challenging to identify a specific wire among many, try zooming in closer using your mouse scroll wheel to pinpoint the exact wire for removal. Remember, you can only remove wires while in Build Mode; attempting to remove them during regular gameplay will not be successful.

How to Attach Wires in Once Human

After successfully removing a wire, follow these steps to reattach it:

• Enter Build Mode by pressing the B key on your keyboard.
• To initiate wire placement, press the X key to activate wire placement mode, where you will see a visual indicator of the wire following your cursor.

• If you are near your solar generator, press X to attach the wire.
• Walk towards the structure you intend to power, such as an electric furnace. When hovering over the highlighted structure, press X again to connect the wire’s other end.

While placing the wire, you can freely move your cursor to create straight lines or navigate around obstacles in your base. The wire will automatically snap to valid connection points on power sources and appliances for easier connectivity. If you make an error during wire placement, use the R key to remove it and start over.

By following these steps, you can efficiently manage power wires in Once Human, ensuring a well-organized base. For additional tips on resource locations, crafting, and more, check out our dedicated section on Gamer Tweak.
