Your spacesuit provides you with a portable atmosphere, with adjustable pressure and air conditioning (temperature) settings, as well as a warning system that will alert you should the atmosphere inside the suit become hazardous. It functions in conjuction with a suitable helmet to function properly, as well as suitable gas canisters and filters in the suit's various slots. These will need to be changed regularly, and can also be recharged (or drained) using a Suit Storage

There are several suits, including the EVA Suit and the more pressure- and temperature-resistant Hardsuit.

Your suit various readouts are at the bottom-right of the screen. Pressing the appropriate numeric key will bring up a panel showing its slots and settings. These include:

  • A/C On / Off (i.e. Temperature control on/off)
  • Filters On / Off
  • Air On / Off
  • Pressure Up / Down (with a range of 0kPA to 202kPA, or 0-2 Earth atmospheres)
  • Temperature Up / Down (with a range of 0ºC to 60ºC)

Suits contains 6-8 slots:

  • Air tank (x1) - insert a canister or smart canister containing a breathable gas mix, eg Oxygen or Nitrogen/Oxygen 35/65.
  • Waste tank (x1) - collects gases removed by the filters.
  • Life support (x1) - holds one battery, which powers your A/C, lights, etc.
  • Gas Filter (x3) - requires at least one Carbon Dioxide Filter (if human), depending on your breathable gas mix. Note that a Hardsuit has 4 Filter slots.
  • IC - Hardsuit only.

Pressure: should be set to 50-100 kPa (0.5 to 1 Earth atmospheres). Humans in-game tolerate up to ~250kPa and can survive up to ~300kPa.

Temperature: normally set to 18-21ºC, with humans in-game preferring 10-29ºC, tolerating 0-39ºC and surviving around up to 49ºC. In higher temperatures, your A/C will consume more battery power to maintain internal temperature.

Filters: the default filter is the Carbon Dioxide filter, which captures the gas generated by humans when breathing out. If you are not using 100% Oxygen in your breathing gas, add additional filters, eg if you mix 25% Oxygen + 75% Nitrogen, the nitrogen will accumulate in your suit over time and suffocate you, unless you have a nitrogen filter. If you have the correct filters and breathable gas, but you are still experiencing problems, use the 'Flush' function on your Space Helmet. Low/critical oxygen warnings will sound as your filters cease to function.

If damaged, your suit can be patched by holding |duct tape in your hand and using 'activate' button.
