Steam from the mouth

[✟]

I get steam from my mouth in rooms where there is no sub-zero temperature, it is very confusing

read the patch notes - freezing breath can now happen at single digit temperatures, which is more accurate to how one would experience it in reality.

I'll explain here rather than request you do due research. If you have 'mouth fog' that does not mean "Freezing Temps" what it means is the temp has dropped below the dew point and you can now see the condensation in your breath. Freezing Temps -still- requires you to verify with a thermometer. Breath now is only an indicator that it MIGHT be freezing...(to be exact it means the temps are 5c or lower).

However it is ONLY freezing when you have verified with a thermometer, that it is SUB zero (anything below 0c or 32f). Only when you see zub-zero on the meter is it freezing.

u get steam now at 4ºC. If u have lights, u can guess that is ghost room, but not necesarily temperature evidence. It is in patch notes

I kind of like this change, it used to be too easy to find the ghost room if it was a freezing ghost, and it made the thermo take a backseat to other more powerful room locators like the paramic, which is now hot garbage lol, at least at tier 1.

Thanks for the clarification, it's all clear now

make your own tread about it then... don't try to hijack a different one.

Probably just need to re-verify your files.

I suggest trying to forcefully adjust your vocabulary to say "Misty breath" or "cold breath" rather than "freezing breath"... your use of "steam from the mouth" is pretty good too.

That might help with the disconnect.

But yes, currently, misty breath is a sign of ANY ghost being present.

I rather wish all the main evidence items had secondary non-evidence interactions like this, actually. It would be cool if no-evidence runs utilized all your gear instead of excluding several pieces.

Would be cool actually.
Much how certain Ghosts have scream tells.
Something like dots or the emf could stop functioning over time as a tell for battery drain and energy consumption.
More subtle and clever ways to utilize equipment and information from it without direct evidence could be neat.

Or entirely frustrating. Idk, I'm not a dev for the game lol.

Currently Temps and EMF have non-evidence use in terms of revealing ghost activity and presence.

Temps 0-5 degrees mean the ghost is present but don't prove freezing.
EMF 2-4 mean the ghost did a thing but don't prove EMF 5.

UV footprints used to be the same, but much as I'd love to see it get back a non-evidence case, having footprints as evidence counters a frustration for rooms without much in the way of fingerprints too well.

Other evidence pieces have semi-side uses

Videos can be used to watch for things like Yurei door closing (sound sensors can do this too) or just watching activity from the truck, like to see a polter-explosion.

UV glowsticks can still be used for lighting your way through in no-flashlight challenges

But books, spirit box, and DOTs are pretty useless in 0-evidence which is unfortunate.
