Jet pack fuel usage

[Tanqard]

Is it me or has fuel usage on the jet pack increased significantly since the patch.

I think you are right, I also noticed it.

Increase Jetpack gas usage by factor of ten, as you barely ever needed to add more gas.
Added headlamp automatically turning off when added to a structures inventory, such as suit storage.
Fixed Jetpack Basic accidentally set as Tier Two item.

Thank you, I did not notice that. I think the 10x might be a bit much. Right now it feels like the jet pack will fail at any time unless paying absolute attention to it (10x is also a bit much in space when much use it constantly). I personally would like to see the usage tied to the gravity and atmosphere density.

Current usage feels fine you just might have to setup gas filtration sooner than before to refill and with a smart canister you got 20Mbar even with the hardpack jetpack that uses a lot more gas I dont have to refill too often but I do have to eventually which feels much better than before where you could play for 50 hours and still not have had to refill.

I've noticed that the jet pack will continue to slowly lose nitrogen even when not in use when you are walking around indoors. At least in the asteroid scenario. To stop the leak, you have to press "J" once to start the jet pack and then again to stop it.

You don't even need filtration because you can still use anything as fuel. You can do this very early by taking all your Arc furnace exhaust and canister it up. You will never worry about fuel again. You can do this very early on way before you will need it, unless you are jetpack guy...
Just make sure you have a blow off because you will get a lof of gasses.
