Oxygen keeps decreasing even if you fix the oxygen room.

Postby pacificat0r » Mon Sep 17, 2012 3:55 pm

Hello,

I'm sorry I've spent money on this game. It is a frustrating experience riddled with bugs.
For example one of the most ugly and evil bugs I've experienced was the fact that the oxygen levels kept dropping even AFTER fixing the Oxygen Room.

Have a nice day,
A customer

You might have forgotten to repower the oxygen. If it happens again can you please take a screenshot so we can help debug it and post it here?

In addition to this, the oxygen level indicator shows the average level for the whole ship.

If you are venting rooms, or have a hull breach somewhere, the oxygen levels can decrease, even when everything is working like it should be.

Yeah, check for external doors being open, or hull breeches (the tutorial doesn't properly explain breeches; I never knew you could repair them until one happened in a room where I had to keep a guy going... and he eventually repaired it!)

Same thing happened to me on the Engi Ship just now.

I had no hull breaches, fully powered O2 generator and no external doors open.

I kept hearing the hissing of a hull breach, but as you can see there isn't one on my ship.

Here is a screenshot:

New version bug, maybe?

I'm not sure if you've noticed, but the lower right external vent is open, which would be the reason that you're leaking O2.

As for the OP, the most likely thing is that you simply forgot to power up your oxygen system. It happened to me once too, and I couldn't figure out what was wrong. I almost died before I realized what was causing the air leak.

I have never seen oxygen vent without a reason for it. Common causes are broken o2 system, doors open, hull breaches, no power to the o2 system or the o2 system is powered down by an ion weapon.

And yes that screenshot clearly has one of the doors open, good idea is to just use the "close all doors" button to make sure if you are in panic mode and can't find a reason why it's leaking and double check the power to the system.

That's a wee bit embarrassing I tell you! :oops:

I swear I hit the close all doors button at some point though!
I started opening internal doors to try alleviate the problem.
