When would you ever want to use a passive gate over a volume pump or gas pump?
So, a gas pump is reliant on pressure, and can fill up a tank to a certain amount, but aren't useful for moving mass quantities from one to another.
Volume pumps work very quickly, but have are a bit finicky (sometimes ...

I always switch it out for a passive gate which is instant (assuming it has enough pressure to work with)

This brings me joy because passive gates don't drain the tank the way volume pumps do. Valves also work well for this if you want to go above 4500kpa but have the disadvantage of being two ...

Takes time to make sure you understand why you're getting bwoinked. 9/10 only mostly gay.

If I get bwoinked it's usually him doing the bwoinking.

I always deserve the bwoink.

Never rude about it.

I was that traitor and it was pretty awesome. Less awesome was getting cucked out of my greentext by a welderbombed hole in the shuttle. More hilarious maybe, but less awesome.

Captains who give out medals.

That could easily be solved by putting a tracking beacon design disk next to the autolathe board. Make the drones work if they want to come back, prevent the crew from roundstart stealing the good shit.

Atmos needs a spacegap between the holding tanks and atmos proper. One busted window and there's a lethal amount of pressure.

As an aside, I like the option you added for routing waste directly into mix. Very useful for freon.

Volume pumps on air to distro.
i get that this drains the air from the storage tank but hear me out
i will do this when there is a major gas leak/breach and i'm an atmos tech so i can repressurize an area much faster
is that so wrong?

Nothing wrong with switching it out if and when it's needed ...

That actually sounds really cool. You could even work some of the new gravgen mechanics into it.

Those things are all relatively easily fixed, too. With the singulo you're hoping mining did their job for BoH or a scientist can get lucky with a maxcap

Probably but it really shouldn't be so easy to irredeemably fuck the round that early with so little effort.

You really need to cite some actual facts about how often the singu gets out, 'cause I recall only having experienced it once every 15 or so rounds which isn't that many to the average player. It's just once you've gotten to your 3000th or so game /everything/ starts repeating.

Basically the singu ...

Thirding giving atmos techs engine access. Also the gas to engine loop shouldn't piggyback off of the mix loop. Deltastation did it right.
