can any gas be used as remass?
for example, if we bottle up CO2 with a co2 scrubber, and it gets stored into a gas canister, could we use it as emergency remass? :)

also, can any (rusty looking) gas canister (like the one named "01") be used as a makeshift gas canister for any gas? (for example, if we dont have a c02 canister, could one of those, be hooked up to a co2 scrubber and start storing co2)

(or to an air pump/intake and get refilled by the station)


im just thinking of ways to not waste any gas, and more ways to use a canisters....
after all, "a cannister always repays his debts" :lunar2019grinningpig:

Yes! Any gas that can be pumped, and mixed gases can be used as remass!
If you have one of the orange cannisters you should be able to pump whatever output gas there is directly into it from any pump or scrubber!

The smallest ship in the game has an oxygen doubling as RCS fuel and cabin air. RCS intake and Air Pump both feeding from the same O2 canister.

It's the Katydid shuttlepod. Very minimalist. Note the RCS intake and air pump to the left of the nav terminal. There's also a second air pump on the upper wall for venting the cabin into space (to deal with CO2 buildup?). It's about as small and light weight you can make a ship with a pressurized cabin. Amazing amounts of DV, useless for anything but moving 1 person and their personal inventory from station to station/ship.

nice :) i think with some rack/storage bins placed on the outside (maybe with the lights moved 1 space further along) there will also be enough room for crates/yukons inside :)
