Health and Afflictions.
https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3250158475

Paid 500 creds to heal all affictions and 400 more to heal all wounds.

But still injured and dying. Rested in bed for 8 hours, still the same. I have no status effects but cannot heal to full health.

If anyone thinks combat is easy now... stop playing on easy mode.

To Fix had to go back into options and reset everything to normal. Otherwise there is no way of healing yourself.

The main cause here is raising combat afflictions, they can't be healed by resting, you can "cure" the affliction ie puncture wounds or heatstroke.. but your health cannot be restored.

Um, did you try a Med Pack???

I know it "says" 0% health for 40s but it will indeed heal you.

For future reference, it's always cheaper to pay the 750 to heal ALL.

EDIT: In addition, in my (many hours) of playing Extreme Survival, you MUST use THREE items to get your "affliction" from POOR to EXCELLENT... then it has a chance to heal itself.

Example: You have been shot and have a PUNCTURE wound. Not one, not two but THREE bandages must be used... (you thought I was going to say four... four stones!)

Same here.

This isn't even intentional. Several aspects of the survival settings are simply bugged.

Med Kits do have an "effect" but only for the Red Health pool.. the yellow is unaffected and needs to be healed by resting, which simply doesn't work correctly.

The only fix is to go back to options and change them to normal, let yourself heal then increase them again. My bonus xp is 7% or so.. any better and the game starts bugging.

I also didn't get a Heal All option from the medic.. only heal wounds or heal afflictions. Money isn't really an issue.. unless he charges like 100k.. or so.

This is based off playing a New game.. not loading an old pre patch save. Which might also affect gameplay.

I was also getting heatstroke and burns "inside" a station.. the fire effects from the burning pipes.. goes straight through walls, floors etc.. in some cases it's like the poi is just cosmetic.. and you still get affected by the weather.. ie scalding rain... still burns inside some stations, the habitats however do seem to protect.

Perhaps your save is bugged and I will 100% recheck my current save.... but you're talking about this setting:
https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3250211780
Even at it's lowest if you sleep or rest ON YOUR SHIP you will REMOVE the YELLOW (environmental damage).

One sec...
I went outside and removed my BACKPACK to TAKE environemental DMG
https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3250213923
again, these are my settings
https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3250213999
I entered my ship, still had the yellow bar
https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3250214112

I slept for 5 hours - yellow bar ALL GONE!

Not a bug, doctors don't remove environmental damage (yellow bar).

They will only heal 100% of your hp (white) bar.

Pay attention to the settings : on max settings environmental damage can only be removed by resting on a ship, outpost or settlement.

The correct way of healing yourself to full is : rest to remove the yellow, then go see a doctor.
Doctors are considerably more efficient than using bandages or other meds early game, since you get wounds every time you get shot or afflictions in seconds on hazard planets.

It is, resting does remove the yellow bar as described in the settings

Recovery from multiple injuries and/or afflictions works perfectly for me. Panacea is a great healer but lesser aids including sleeping also work, abeit more slowly and piecemeal than panacea. But they all work.

I always think about sleeping when I'm near dead and taking periodic damage, so can't even sleep at that point. I'm becoming reliant medical's primary source of income lol

I slept both in my ship and in my bed in the lodge for about 2 days. Yellow bar not gone.
I had to reduce all menu settings to normal. I think it's the combat and environmental stats.. because those cannot be healed.. except by resting. And it isn't healing for me at all.

If I sleep.. I wake up with like 2% health.. red bar to about 25% of max life and 75% yellow health.

That doesnt make any sense, 25% of max life means 25%, not 2% ? What are those 2% referring to ?

You need to sleep in your ship, outpost or a settlement (not a bed found in a hostile POI) to remove the yellow bar.

A bug I had in the past was weather not going away (game always acting like I was in a storm)

Did you check the status menu ?

Then you should absolutely submit your save files in a support ticket because that is NOT how the game normally behaves. As you can clearly see from my screenshots. It's not like I'm making this ♥♥♥♥ up... it DOES work, but apparently not for you... perhaps yet another MOD conflict... dunno 🤷

Just tested on 2 different characters, yellow bar goes away very reliably by sleeping 1 hour in a bed on my ship.
