I'm not sure how my sarcastic comment about Splitsie making a mod that makes things easier for a change triggered that 5 post essay. But thank you. Very informative post(s).

sort of cellular/stretchy high-GPa material like borophene/phyne (graphene is so 2010s tech), and the inert nonporous semi-metal shell on the inside became like a sealing clay around the oxygen volume, I guess that could work for creating a small, high density, LOX/metal/crystal-state O2 storage that is beyond the average capability of large canisters.

"blackballing" technology & material development inside a political, social, economic, & judicial cess-structure that hampers individuality, success, & freedom), and far surpass the oxygen density of things like nitrous, nitromethane, etc, allowing modified dynamic ICE designs which can approach and surpass typical inductive motor EVs (competitions tested). And yes, that generally mean's you can't patent wh*** (steal) it, but for individual or undisclosed volatile mixtures: why the hell not, make the world better. Oh, and if you're wondering why we use Aluminum for sh!t, know that you don't have to and chances are you're gonna be a lot better off by doing your own engineering (no planned obsolescence).

As Muons only live for a few microseconds, you can't use enough of them constantly in order to further densify any materials for long term storage unless your canister can somehow shrink and get thicker/stronger according to volume and pressure-area reduction. So if you had some

make this easy for up to 99% efficiency in sorting/ejecting many types of gasses in a small form factor due to their molecular size differences & properties, not using any power).

I'm hoping they correct their energy and mass conservation and handling physics/values in SE2 and have it be a natural part of vanilla! There is so much we can do as a species, but, we just, freaking, aren't.... well, China and other countries may be by comparison, actually... our US/AU/EU tech tends to just get sinkholed into hyperinflation, taxes & overhead, ostracism (not by ostriches if you thought that, and you should probably be on a concoction of meds if so [they might make you live longer] ;), and obscurity.

Btw, the compounds mentioned were specifically selected for enhancing atomization and combustion in internal combustion engines (better mpg if you also don't waste 80% of the thermodynamic energy to 'keep the oil flowing', otherwise known as 'drill baby, drill!' while artificially

sintering/crystallization (~+10-50%**), cryo/hydro/isostatic-compression (~+5-50% gains). Even compressing LOX to a few hundred Bar/Atm of pressure at cryo temps can net you an additional +22% (up to ~2x with some futuristic tensile container materials [in lab settings diamond anvils and Mpsi detonation are used]) density, same goes for other compounds.

**Many values assisted with AI and are categorical statistical estimations. They are highly likely to be extremely prone to detonation & disassembly of your corpse in practice at high concentrations.

In reality, the SE1 suit system wastes a stupidly high amount of VO2 compared to real world NASA measurements and statistics for a human (including while exercising), meaning the game is only balanced for arcade playability, and in reality one single 20L canister of gaseous or liquid oxygen can last for up to weeks if CO2 is vented and O2 efficiently retained in circulatory loop (commercial/laboratory molecular sieve canisters/tubes

Many greasy-moustached developers without expressions like to complain about lazification and talk crap about their userbase while garnering favor and control over others, but in the real world, with real materials and physics, our canisters only hold ~20 liters of volume and take up half your back's width, and can be pressurized to supercritical* poundage, not like they'd know what that is! ;)

*Supercritical for gasses like pure oxygen are around 3-4ksi at standard T. Storing diatomic molecules as liquids/supercritical mixtures is not the highest density possible, as using molecular bonds can nearly double the energy and mass density of a given atom at STP, like Lithium/Potassium Perchlorate (+27-80%** [cryo-iso-compress/crystal]), TNM (+12-32%** [cryo otherwise boom]), TNEOC (+9-53%** [also boom]), and other variably stable and processable arrangements, not including nanomaterial/semimetal/ceramic/composite compression/exterior canister wrap (+5-30% on top),

This is very much needed! How did the devs think that the current implementation was balanced?

Solid. My virtual back thanks you.

you can also do this by manipulating the o2 numbers in the "Expanded Settings" mod, by increasing the amount a bottle can hold by 3x. just sayin. that mod is, by far, the most versatile mod i have seen. by using ES, you save a bit on resources for the bottles :-D

So what your saying is we should add the 'Bar' bar for the number of bars you have? :D

Speaking of BandsawBox, I noticed while replaying Lost Colony last month that I eventually ended up with a collection of bottles with varying capacities from the ones built in the assembler. Aside from being leftovers from that, perhaps something could be done with those. I'm thinking what Subnautica does with tank sizes, with bigger bottles being more efficient with inventory space/capacity than stacks of smaller bottles, but takes more/rarer resources to craft. Effectively leveling them in a similar way to your tools.

Since keen made it so you got less in each bottle.... seems fitting they should be smaller.

I feel like I'm in a weird backwards reality.

Nice! It gets to be a slog running back and forth. (I wish they'd put consumption rates in the options menu.)

dang splitsie nice mod this is needed those bottles where just to heavy even though weigh less they still have some amount of stored O2 or H2 right

nice one splitsie

Splitsie strikes again. Thank you sir. Time to try it out.
