If you or your property is not yet a construct, you may need use the ACS Factory to build a construct, or the <a href=\"https:\/\/acs-hub.net\/?page_id=1473\">ACS Conversion Chamber<\/a> to turn a living being into a construct. (You can also just roleplay that you are a construct &#8211; nothing special is actually required.)<\/p>\n<h2>Browsing and Buying Components<\/h2>\n<p>The ACS Component Vendor is located in the Workshop.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/acs-hub.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/10\/ComponentVendor.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright wp-image-1525 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/acs-hub.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/10\/ComponentVendor-288x300.png\" width=\"288\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/acs-hub.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/10\/ComponentVendor-288x300.png 288w, https:\/\/acs-hub.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/10\/ComponentVendor-153x160.png 153w, https:\/\/acs-hub.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/10\/ComponentVendor.png 512w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 288px) 100vw, 288px\" \/><\/a>Click the displays to examine the different components available. When you click on an item, it lights up, and a message appears above the displays indicating its price. You or anyone else can right-click on any part of the vendor, then click Pay, to buy the item for you. It will be delivered directly into your #RLV folder.<\/p>\n<p>In short: Click, it lights up, pay, you get it.<\/p>\n<p class=\"size-medium wp-image-403\">Once the desired components have been purchased, you have two choices as to how to install them:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li class=\"size-medium wp-image-403\">The easy way: Just attach the device from your inventory, like you would attach any other purchased item. No further configuration is required.<\/li>\n<li>The fun way: Purchased components can be installed using the <a href=\"https:\/\/acs-hub.net\/?page_id=70\">ACS Workbench<\/a>. This allows you to roleplay an installation scene with another avatar. (The construct avatar must have an <a title=\"What is RLV?\" href=\"http:\/\/acs-hub.net\/?page_id=847\">RLV Relay<\/a>.)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>You must have a CCU for any of the other components to work (and the Workbench won&#8217;t let them be installed if you don&#8217;t have a CCU). None of the other components are required, but most people prefer a robot to have an Access Panel, and many also want to include a Power Source. The Remote Controller Chip can make it easier for a construct to control other constructs, if that is intended to be part of its function.<\/p>\n<table border=\"1\" width=\"640\" cellspacing=\"0\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>a.k.a. &#8220;How do I become a ____________?&#8221; Before you begin, bear in mind that ACS Components are designed for constructs, not living beings.
