fatman_n Posted March 18, 2017 Share Posted March 18, 2017 In all the longer tunnels that are been made today, there will be installed fans for air circulation. I suggest to add a fan to the game that can blow gases in one direction. This will be a lot more algae friendly for the player when digging long tunnels.

Yes, it would also help with cooling machinery.

AlexRou Posted March 18, 2017 Share Posted March 18, 2017 Why can't you do this with vents and gas pumps with deoxidizers near it? Link to comment https://forums.kleientertainment.com/forums/topic/76382-new-item-suggestion-airflow-fan/#findComment-886452 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saturnus Posted March 18, 2017 Share Posted March 18, 2017 Install an air pump at one end of the tunnel. Run a long air pipe back to the other end and output via an air vent. Result? Circulation.

I'm talking about a little air the dupes can breathe in when digging a long and expanding tunnel. If the tunnel is complete and you know it doesn't go any future, then sure, ur way is better.

AlexRou Posted March 18, 2017 Share Posted March 18, 2017 You could also build another deoxidizer inside the tunnel, it would take just as much algae to fill that tunnel with oxygen with one deoxidizer and a fan as 2 would.

Saturnus Posted March 18, 2017 Share Posted March 18, 2017 You can breathe polluted oxygen just fine you know. Just break into a pocket with contaminated oxygen once in a while. Remember to put airlocks before each of these if you don't want your base flooded with polluted oxygen. Airlocks require zero research. Or chose dupes with flatulence. They fart just enough to able to breathe about half a cycle.

That won't last long, they are going to make it bad so its a good idea to try and figure out how to do things with pure oxygen.

Saturnus Posted March 18, 2017 Share Posted March 18, 2017 They're never going to make polluted oxygen unbreathable. They might make the consequences of prolonged exposure more serious but that's what medical bays are for, and if they do they'll also make hazmat suits available to produce. In all seriousness it takes less than 20 cycles to complete every single research there is if you really want to make it fast, so I have no idea why it would be needed. It's such a short period it would be relevant.

But the only door u have in the beginning is "Pneumatic Door", and that doesn't stop anything. Honestly, I don't know what it's for.
