Vgstation13: Make oxygen tanks last way less long.

[PJB3005]

Just a regular big oxygen tank at the default pressure and outlet pressure lasts the entire shift.

Issue with this is that there are three options:

• Give big tanks a smaller volume (breaks everything)
• Increase human oxygen consumption (small tanks last 15 seconds)
• s n o w f l a k e

[ComicIronic]

But why

[Shadowmech88]

Give big tanks a smaller volume (breaks everything)

Why would it break anything?

[Probe1]

@ComicIronic Because one big blue from the dispenser without filling it up will last at _least_ 3 hours. I've never had one run out ever.

@Shadowmech88 bombs.

[9600bauds]

Bombs, flamethrowers, pneumatic cannons etc

[clusterfack]

I have a solution, we add oxygen poisoning so you have to use AIR tanks, bwahahaha

[ComicIronic]

No, I understand that you think the air tank is too big.
I'm asking you WHY it's too big. What's wrong with the tank lasting as long as it does?

[Probe1]

1. They're commonplace and can fit in hardsuits storage slot
2. They have effectively unlimited capacity

One or the other makes for interesting gameplay. Both makes it thoughtless. Just get the blue one unless you're security/antag/whatever and need that slot for a gun.

[ComicIronic]

Is it interesting to have to refill the tank as menial work every so often?

[Probe1]

Menial? Maybe if you're on the station and everythings fine. But if you're in deep space or the stations massively destroyed its a fight for life. Plan ahead. Think about shit.
