Active Vent problems.

[Mr. Damocles]

Since the update on June 25, Active vents are not working properly.

All of my airlocks are now misbehaving, and my Atmospheric-Filter scrubbers are blowing up exhaust line pipes.

I think its something to do with the pressure ratings of the two modes of an active vent.

When the vent is pushing gasses out of the pipe network (as it would in an airlock), it works as normal

But when the vent is pulling gasses from any pipe network, it does it at a very slow rate to the point where I'm having pipes explode due to back pressure.

It is also causing airlock cycles to take an incredibly long time to pressurize the airlock.

Funnily enough, the ones in my airlocks work perfectly well, the ones supposed to pressurize my base and replenish CO2 in my greenhouse don't do anything noticeable.
Not slow... nothing.

[Mr. Damocles]

Well I can't get logged into their stupid bug reporting webpage, so would somebody please relay this bug to the board?

[Mr. Damocles]

Well I tried to put a post on their bug reporting site, but I kept having problems with that ATLASIAN login garbage that even lets you log in.

[McGargoyle]

I've seen your above report, almost verbatim. I assumed you got through.

[McGargoyle]

AHA!

The Active Vents aren't broken, the old savegames are...
Deconstruct and reinstall the vent and they'll work perfectly.

is an active vent supposed to work slow in one way and fast in another?
my airlock (with active vent) is fast when pulling air out of the lock but slow to put air into it when i go into the room.
my active vent is piped to a passive vent in the room.

[Mr. Damocles]

They are supposed to move gasses at the same rate on either setting INWARD/OUTWARD.

Same deal, and I tried using the hand drill to Deconstruct, and Replace them back where they were.

Checked the settings on both consoles for airlocks, and for my intakes for my Atmospherics-Filter.

When they are set to pressurize an airlock they just do not seem to pull gasses from the passive network vent into the airlock.

I have to cancel the pressurization to move from room to room every time.

And my Atmospherics on MARS to collect O2 and N2, as well as CO2 scrubbers inside barely work.

mine work fine even on old saves. no problems at all with active vents

[Radioshow]

Just double checked 2 different quite old saves. Adv. airlocks, 1 active vent each for in/out with both connected to 2 passive vents each. Empty's in no time and fills at between 5-7 kpa a tick, All airlocks are the same. For atmospherics, all vents working as intended.
