What's this "New Atmos" People are talking about?

[TheMaggotGuy]

Seems like they’re making it super realistic or something?

Fraptos mick piping in the bruvashoo. No more nukes.

Something about how atmos works.
For example, it’s faster and works room-to-room instead of tile-to-tile

[Pill_U]

So now when the ai plasnafloods it doesnt slowly spread from the vents, it just fills the entire room a t once. Also dont break windows while standing next to them if you’re in space. Youll get yeeted

oh shit, nice

[Riolu_from_Area_51]

Tbh I don’t really know specifics. There’s a thread for it

[boolsrealm]

the basics are that instead of calculating how much gas there is on a tile, it calculates how much gas there is in the whole room. lets say you add like, 5 moles of plasma to a room that has 5 moles of oxygen. no longer will it slowly spread from vents, the whole room will now have 5 moles of plasma, kinda. theres specifics in a big thread about it but thats the basic jist, it runs much faster and is more optimized

Opinions on a better atmos system

poll I’ve been talking with Ike about implementing/porting a new system for Atmos, and it’s going to take a substantial bounty to get done most likely. Before I lay down the money I want to know what others think about the idea since it’s going to cause a fundamental shift in gameplay on both servers. Current Atmos Atmos is calculated tile-to-tile, which is slow and inefficient. Gas does not flow or mix at all in equal pressure environments. Scrubbers are nearly worthless at doing their job, s…

any idea how are flamethrowers gonna work with new atmos

[Ruko]

Some tests had the flame spread 3x7 tiles, some had it just go 1x7, some had it expand backwards into me and my tile making it 3x8.

Room was extremely hot after firing it just once

[Bestparty]

This will be too chaotic for lrp lmao

[Ruko]

Fixed the post with the actual fastmos gif now instead of one I wasn’t sure why didn’t work right.

Flamethrowers be suicidal now

[Efe]

so it’s not possible to fix flamethrowers? sad

[Pill_U]

What if you spawn the flames 2 tiles away

Nah they’re just making it super ■■■■■■ed.

[Shark-sie]

If you use a flamethrower in a roughly 20 foot wide hallway you’re gonna have a bad time

[TheSpaghettiSauceSla]

Entire central hallway can be lit up by one retard with a flamethrower

[boolsrealm]

you could always do that if you were a gigachad who knew how to make a good flamethrower mix

looks to me flamethrowers are actually kinda shittier based on that gif alone, it fades away alot faster than it used to

[Ruko]

For reference that gif was no special mix at all, just pure plasma at default output setting.
