Going to start playing again because of your videos!
Nice! That’s why I do it!
Actual certified electrician here. I understand this is just a game, but it is mediocre. The wiring aspect of this game is very flawed. This is definitely not how it's done in real life. I strongly advise ignoring everything in this game when it comes to doing actual electrical work. Obviously I dont expect coders to understand my trade, but this was painful to watch. I'm not sure why they added electronics repair as that is a different field.
I assume most sims are as accurate as goat simulator is to real life. Just good fun 🙂
apprentice here, i work as an electrician in germany and where i work we actually do repair electronics. nothing like controllers or smartphones, but the tools we use are often easily repaired and some things, like smart thermostats and our SAT finder where it is cheaper to repair it than just throw it away we try to at least find the problem and fix it. most of the times it's easily done. (and we are working in construction, not small electronics, although here in germany the official job title is "electronics in energy and building technology").
it is actually part of the apprenticeship "learning plan" to work with that, we have to learn that in both the vocational college and our actual workplace to even be allowed for the exam.
but yes, the wiring really hurt to look at. although i suppose every country does it a little different, i have seen US wiring and the stuff they do is often not even remotely allowed here in germany. especially the wirenuts. (hot topic, i know. but i'm totally on team WAGO.)
and don't even get me started on the electrical panels... why is there no main RCB? why can outlets be allowed to operate without one? maybe it has changed recently, but i don't get it. sure it costs a bit more, but it can literally save your life. don't cheap out on the electrical system...
@@firstnameDerrick as a small advice: if you want to be a bit more realistic, try to not go diagonal. that is very much a no-go, we have zones for our wires that we shouldn't leave unless absolutely necessary. nor should you go horizontally in the middle of the walls. if you need to, do it either at the very top or the very bottom, preferably the top. and you absolutely can go on the ceiling. it's much better than a wire in the middle of the wall. for example, at the project I'm currently working on, we mainly go below the ceiling (or more like inside the ceiling which is going to be lowered down a bit with plasterboard) and then go down in a straight line to each light switch and outlet, never ever moving horizontally.
the reason behind this is that we are not the only people who need to have stuff in the walls, people want to hang up frames for example, and imagine accidentally hitting a live wire with your drill or your nail because someone thought they could go diagonal with the wires. it's expected that you shouldn't drill above a light switch, but nobody expects a wire randomly in the middle of the wall. :)
