Overheated atmo suits turn to sand

Atmo suits are made from dirt. This can be seen when they are unequipped, lying on the floor.

Equipped atmo suits exchange temperature similarly to carried items, but are not protected from phase change. A duplicant who spends enough time in magma or similar hot environment may lose the suit, which will turn into a block of sand.


Steps to Reproduce
1. Have a dupe equip an atmo suit. 2. Put suited dupe in magma. 3. Wait

Is this truly a bug? Exosuits have a listed maximum temperature, so it makes sense that they should break down under overheating conditions.

They do not have a maximum temperature, they have a bonus to duplicant's scalding temperature.

It is certainly a bug. Just because you like the idea of overheating, doesn't make it any more intentional to have suits made of copper turn to sand long before duplicants feel any effect of the heat outside.

Afaik not a bug, They turn into dirt when exposed to temps above 1000 degree Celsius. Only seems like they turn into sand cause the dirt is boiled into sand almost immediately at those temperatures.
