Please give xenobio an atmos holofan

Holy shit, there’s just so much fucking space wind all the damn time, it fucks up my entire layout every 5 minutes. I could use the firedoors, but that turns the entire room red and I don’t think there’s a way to turn the red light off. Please give us an atmos holofan to seal off the entrances or some other solution.

If your atmos issues are caused by the cold room, you don’t really need to open the cold room unless the camera’s dead. If they’re caused by you cutting a hole to space for the sake of modifying the layout, chances are you passed by engineering to grab mats/tools/a RCD, so you could make a holofan on their lathe.

Nope, all I do is open the door to get in and out or someone else does and the spacewind just goes fucking BRRRRR

i mean i dont go in and you of xenobio that often, but unless the station/rooms have atmos/temperature issues or a hole somewhere there realy shouldnt be any spacewind at all.

xenobio cold room is about space atmos but i guess you can just close the door

You don’t need to enter the cold room if your slime console can reach it, though, unless some sciency boi insists on building servers here

Miasma also builds up all the time in xenobio and rather quickly as well. Maybe turn on BZ and miasma scrubbing on by default at roundstart? I’m unsure if that will be enough though, since miasma can accumulate both slowly and in one big swoop when a door opens.

Just
Don’t open slime pens or cold room doors
you don’t need to

Ooooor recycle your dang monkeys.
…Actually, since you’re complaining about atmos, opening doors, the cold room and miasma, i need to ask:
Are you even using the slime console or are you actually doing xenobio the old way

Orrrr maybe you could consider walking over to Engineering and asking them for a holofan ?

True chads feed slimes personally

I constantly recycle monkeys, but sometimes I leave one or two in one cell by accident and miasma just happens.

I could, but that takes time and I’ve got a lot that I want to make. I need an engineer to let me in, or PDA an engineer that might never come, or maybe there are no engineers to ask for a holofan.

You’re still not explaining why there is space wind in the first place.

Spend a little of your time leaving to interact with other departments when they can provide what it is you need

I would gladly do that, but what I find is that oftentimes there are very few engineers, the ones that are there are dead or just flat out ignore me or take a long time because they’re doing something else. Maybe I have just been unlucky. I don’t think you can get a holofan roundstart though since lack of mats.

They spawn in atmos lockers.

Oh, well that solves most of my problems, thanks :D.

protip you can also just forget the cold room completely. make windows around a 2 tile space, put a holofan in front of the 2 tiles, space the 2nd tile and wrench down the slime processor in the 1st tile.

the spaced tile will kill the slimes you deposit there, which will immediately get processed, then you can use the processor from the holofan tile.

I use this setup every time.

Oooh, cool tip! Thanks. I hardly ever get spacewind from the freezer though, it’s usually from miasma or BZ.
