Tadpolesrcold Posted August 14, 2020 Posted August 14, 2020 Hello, I'm awful at formatting so ill do my best too keep it readable. As it stands Atmospheric suits can handle up too 30000 kelvin in a room at a time before the suit melts, which is an amazing feat and could be used too save many lives in fire scenario's. But as it stands as soon as you yourself are lit a flame too point of needing too roll too remove it you begin too overheat quickly before you start taking damage, even in the atmos suit. This makes large fire's very dangerous with no safe way too navigate them without venting the whole area, more then likely damaging and/or killing anyone stuck inside without a suit. My suggestion would be make certain suits(atmos, CE, Erendi merc) actually fireproof so they can safely move through these tiles without suffering heavy damage. They should still of course actually still fail if the suit's heat resistant limit is surpassed but being lit on fire by a welding fire should not be doing damage too heavy fire suppression suits like atmos's
Carver Posted August 18, 2020 Posted August 18, 2020 Can we return to firesuits actually doing their job as firesuits again, too?
Skull132 Posted August 21, 2020 Posted August 21, 2020 Firesuits can't be trivially fixed, I'm afraid. Ingame fires have a dumbass steep temperature curve, for one. So that any fire proof item must protect against incredibly high temperatures. But what's more, fires generate an incredibly large amount of pressure. Which means that any firesuit must also be a pseudo spacesuit. I'd rather we just. Not use firesuits. At all. And have RIGs for this.

As somebody that uses the firesuits whenever a fire breaks out, pls no. They're perfectly acceptable for minor fires such as welding fuel ones. I haven't had any issue with them not working against fires.

I take it there's no (easy) way to have a suit protect against high pressure whilst doing nothing against low/no pressure?
