How to apply construction foam on cables?

  • I need help with applying CF on cables without creating inferno mess around everytime i spray it, how do i do that? Wiki is not helping with this much :(


    step 1: encase cable in something like dirt
    step 2: spray cable from the one open end you left
    step 3: clean up any extra foam before it hardens


    really not that hard.

  • I assume you're referring to the excess that leaks out of whatever hole you spray the CF into?


    you can use a block with a collision box smaller than a full block, like another cable, a door, or an RP2 miniblock (if you have RP2 installed) and the CF won't go through it, but you can click through it.

  • That's not really good way to do it, you waste a lot and i thought there will be some sort of mechanics to it like when using scaffolds.

    Depends on how much wire you want covered. It'll still do only 13 wire at a time with your CF sprayer.


    As far as efficiency, it beats the 1:1 ratio if you just apply it block by block.


    As an additional bonus, it does protect wires from explosions, like if you forget to upgrade your transformers when you upgrade the voltage on your energy storage device.
