Эта инструкция описывает использование 
Принтера интегральных схем, универсального устройства, с помощью которого можно создавать особые предметы, которые называются 
сборками. Сборки имеют широкий набор возможностей, которые ограничиваются только воображением игрока и размером корпуса. Можно создавать специализированные сигнализаторы, интеллектуальные аугментации, взрывчатку, раздатчики лекарств и химических веществ, передвижных механических помощников и многое другое. В конце инструкции есть некоторые примеры таких устройств.
Разработка новой схемы может занять некоторое время, кроме того может потребоваться познания булевой алгебры и электронных компонентов. Разработанные схемы можно легко переносить между раундами. Разработка сборок - своего рода головоломка, в которой размеры сборки ограничивают авторскую фантазию.
С помощью сборок возможно реализовать самые уникальные и творческие идеи, но при этом нужно помнить Правила сервера: не стоит использовать сборки с целью испортить раунд другим игрокам или получить над ними неоправданное преимущество.

Инструменты
Принтер интегральных схем (integrated circuit printer) - основной инструмент для создания сборок. Он находится в научном отделе или в мастерской роботехники, его можно создать в Протолате. С помощью интерфейса можно создать не только все необходимые компоненты для сборки, но и также инструменты для соединения компонентов в сборку. Также он позволяет воспроизводить цепи по существующему описанию дизайна. Принтер использует листы стали и позволяет перерабатывать ненужные компоненты и целые сборки.
Сначала многие пункты будут недоступны в меню принтера. Эти более сложные детали можно разблокировать с помощью диска усовершенствования для принтера интегральных схем ('integrated circuit printer upgrade disk - advanced designs') . Если достигнут достаточно высокий уровень исследований, то этот диск можно создать в протолате.
Воспроизведение цепей по шагам может занять несколько минут в более сложных случаях. Диск мгновенного клонирования сборки ('integrated circuit printer upgrade disk - instant cloner') позволяет мгновенно воспроизвести сборку в принтере. Если достигнут достаточный уровень исследований, то этот диск можно создать в протолате.
Используя инструмент соединения цепей (circuit wirer) на открытой сборке можно связывать вместе разные компоненты, это другой необходимый предмет для создания сборок. Он находится в научном отделе или в мастерской роботехника рядом с принтером схем, или же его можно распечатать напрямую из принтера схем. По нажатию |Z переключается режим соединения/разъединения компонентов и сбрасывается ранее выбранный контакт компонента.
Отладчик цепей (circuit debugger) может сохранить много времени при создании цепей. При использовании можно задать значение числа, строки, ссылки или null и применить его на вход компонента . Используется при настройке констант в сборке и проверке работоспособности устройства .Найти или создать его можно также как и инструмент соединения цепей.
Использование дизайнерского инструмента (circuit detailer) позволяет вам сменить цвет корпуса сборки. Находится он там же где и инструмент соединения цепей.
Анализатор цепей (circuit analyzer) позволяет получить набор инструкций для принтера интегральных схем, благодаря чему появляется возможность клонировать сборку используя кнопку Load Program (Загрузить программу) в интерфейсе принтера. Этот текст можно сохранить в отдельный файл для использования в следующих раундах. Просто примените инструмент на готовом устройстве. Иногда править этот текст даже проще, чем менять сборку с помощью перечисленных инструментов.
Таким образом, все инструменты, кроме дисков, можно получить из самого принтера.
Assemblies
There are many types of assemblies, which act as containers for your integrated circuits. Assemblies each have a space (physical internal volume) and a complexity (a cap on the amount of complicated circuits you can include) and some additional features based on the shape of the assembly, (e.g. The one that resembles a PDA can have an ID Card inserted.)
Assemblies fit into four main categories: Assembly, Mechanism, Machine and Drone.
Assembly-class Assemblies are the smallest in space and complexity, but have some features based on their small size. Such as the ability to fit in belt or PDA slots, or inside an augment.
Mechanism-class Assemblies are larger, but cannot fit so easily on your character. They are more suited for assemblies that could sit on a table and perform their function. They have twice the space and complexity of the Assembly-class.
Machine-class Assemblies are the largest and can be affixed to the floor and treated like a piece of furniature. These allow you to build the most complicated integrated circuits. They have four times the space and complexity of the Assembly-class.
Drone-class Assemblies allow you to create robots that can move and interact with the world. They have three times the space and complexity of the Assembly-class.
Additionally, there are two wall-mounted assemblies, which resemble screens that can be attached to a wall. They have twice the space and complexity of the Assembly-class.
As assemblies get larger they also take more steel to create from the printer.
Below is a table that lists each assembly and what special features it has.

Circuit Design
Once you have decided on your assembly type, and what you want your circuit to do - It is time to print all the components and insert them into your assembly. Once this is done, use the 
Circuit Wirer on the open assembly casing to open the assembly internals screen.
Assembly Internals Screen
On this screen you will see a list of the current complexity and space, and their maximum, the power cell status, as well as a list of the installed components.
Component Screen
Clicking on any component will bring up that component's settings, wiring and a description of what it does. In this screen you can also rename, copy the reference of or remove that component.
Here we have an example of one of the medical scanner components, which when used on a target will give the assembly information on its health.
On the left side of the screen we see <REF> target (null) - This means we need to provide the circuit with a target reference as an input. Currently we have null or nothing input. Using another component such as a sensor and wiring it to the medical scanner circuit, we can provide it with a reference. Variables are always written in the format <Type> name (current). Types can be Any, REF, String, NUM or BOOL - And you can only connect compatible pins together. If you wish to send the output of a NUM pin to, for example, a screen for display - Then you will have to pass it through a num to string component first to change the type.
In the center we have the pulse pins, these tell the circuit when to trigger and where to send out a pulse when it operates. We might wire the scan pin to a sensor output trigger, so that when we have scanned something and we know that the reference will be passed to the medical scanner, we tell the medical scanner to operate using that reference. Then we could use the output of the medical scanner to trigger another component such as a screen to display the scan.
Connecting Components
Connect the components using the Circuit Wirer. It has two modes, Wire and Unwire, which can be toggled with Z or by clicking on the Wirer. To wire or unwire, click on the two pins you wish to wire/unwire. They must be compatible, i.e. You cannot wire a pulse pin to a variable pin, nor can you connect pins with incompatible types. Pins can have multiple connections.
Occasionally, you will not want to connect a pin to anything - But you will still want it to have a variable. This may be the case with a ticker that you always want to be on, so it requires a <BOOL> True on the input. You can achieve this using the 
Circuit Debugger. Double-click the Debugger in-hand to open a menu to allow you to select a variable type, select the variable you want and then input the value. Then click on the appropriate pin with the debugger to set the value. An example of this can be seen in the above image, in which pin <NUM> B is permanently set to 7. The debugger can also be used to pulse a trigger pin to allow you to test out your circuit.
