Oxygen Mask Clearance: Vacanacy Only Ignored

Experiencing very similar.  When there's no oxygen in the docks and a dupe returns, the mask stays as item "Worn Oxygen Mask" and cannot be placed into the dock again.  Likely this may be the source of the many "complaints" about oxygen masks in the "Suggestions" page.

It seems to be when they swap their mask for another when their first mask is running low.

 

Causes a serious problem when it's a mask->exosuit checkpoint

 

Hopefully they make it so the exchanged masks swap places rather than just dropping one mask.

Yeah oxygen masks are a huge headache for me. THey never return them and then everywhere outside is "unreachable". I just deconstructed them all and lived with perma slimelung. Vacancy only never does anything, they just drop them wherever they want.

This is still a problem.
