High temps in EVA suit?

[Si Cwan]

I'm running 0.14 and every time I put on the EVA suit and the helmet, the toons heat sky rockets and is in the uncomfortable range, I can see that w/ the pressure suit, but w/ the EVA, that's supposed to be designed for extended space walks?

[Grimm Spector]

I'm having this issue in the proper 12B suit too, that's supposed to have some climate control, so it's annoying.

[Anunnaki_65355]

The same here. Probably bug.

[Xzystance:TTV]

I saw this bug last night too, but as far as my testing goes, it seems to just be a visual bug, as it didn't seem to affect my character at all.

[LoneGunman]

Same. I noticed it but my toon wasn't complaining so I've just ignored it. I kind of feel like the new UI, in exposing more information about the needs/wants of our characters has also exposed some long standing data bugs. Hopefully they can hot fix some of these things real quick.

[tritton82]

Yeah, I think the new UI is a little alarmist when it comes to heat. The EVA and pressure suits are hot, but similar to wearing a heavy piece of work equipment like a bunker suit or similar (well, that's likely hotter but hopefully you get the idea!)

It's not the heat of your person, it's gas temperature.

I presume it's reading what little atmosphere is in the vented room - it's a very low pressure environment, which would cause any gases to boil because it's boiling point would be lowered.

So at a guess, when you see high temp on that gauge, it's because it relative to boiling point, so all of a sudden external gases are at the equivelant state of high temp gas on Earth.

Still, that does make the bar a bit useless outside of airlock, but I guess maybe useful to realise you've got a leak when you are out of a suit in your ship?

Its more of a sign for me to know when the stations are bugging out or i need to repair my heaters. but otherwise it's quite useless, especially with the character temp being right next to it.

To be fair, it makes a lot of sense for your character to be hot anyway. In zero vacuum, any body heat you generate is only going to be vented by radiative means, as there's no air. So all the construction probably would make you pretty damn sweaty and stinky aha.

But yes, seems a bit useless atm

....except that isn't how it works, both parts.

When pressure is lowered, temperature *decreases*. It's harder for things to get hotter the less atmosphere there is. (This is why if you can't get your ship up to atmo easily, always check the temp!)

And the other part is, the UI (which SHOULD be reading what your character is reading) doesn't care at all about what is around you. At all. Neither does your character.
What it cares about is 'what is <reading x> at my exact point'. And that exact point is in a suit, which contains its little bubble of air.

The emergency suits get hot. There is no escaping that. The air inside warms up since there is no place other then...well...nowhere, to go. Hence the O2 dropping, and the CO2 rising. Because that little bubble *where I am at* is doing that. It doesn't care about the state of the room about it. Now, with the proper EVA suits, them heating up (if the UI can be trusted) is actually a problem, since they *ARE* climate controlled. There is a place for the heat to go.

One thing to try, if anyone cares, is try taking all your clothes off. That may actually cause a temp drop, but, who knows.

[LoneGunman]

It does. And walking into a hot room (my reactor room gets super hot) updates the temp bar (so does when it's too cold somewhere). I think the disconnect is that the suit is making you hot but there's no consequence for that (you don't overheat, pass out, etc.). Could be there's something planned or something that will happen but we're just under the threshold.

That wasn't really my point, my point was that the boiling point decreases. If you throw water into a pressure less vacuum it boils, as we've seen on space missions.

So I was making a guess the game was checking the relative to boiling point temperature.

Now, I'm probably entirely wrong haha. The game doesn't explain it (or at least I'm to lazy to look properly) so just making guesses
