Second Oxygen tank ripoff

[Bollyumph]

I just died because my second oxygen tank depleted along with the main. Basically when I switched, the numbers remained the same and I was too deep. In any case should you not take health damage first???

[Coops]

You did not refill your backup tank the last time you used it. Always swap tanks when you surface.

[Bollyumph]

I did. Positively.

It happened a few times and I thought hey, maybe I didn't. The odd thing is that the O2 remaining is exactly the same as the main tank. Maybe it does not swap in left click???

Yeah I suspect you didn't actually switch.

Even in SN left-click doesn't generally auto-switch an item from a slot where another item is already equipped. You either have to unequip the old item first, or drag the new item on top of the old one.

Thank you and herein lies the problem. Half the time it switches, and half the time it doesn't... I'll use the drag over method from now on. Bug.

Not a bug you were just doing it wrong

It clearly indicates left click to swap. That turns out to be wrong half the time, so it's a bug. Test it yourself. I've been using the swap since and it works well, but the second tank still often has some O2 missing from it.

ive just got an issue with switching tanks too.
They both just disappear completely from inventory when i try to switch them submerged!
They are certainly both filled and i can swap them when surfaced. But when i try to do it submerged both are suddenly gone! I have tried it several times, reloading a game state, this behaviour persists on my current game and i can reproduce it all over again. It is certainly a bug.

[Coops]

Type F8 and report it. They do look at those.

I think that you will find it is missing about 45 seconds of air on a full tank, which happens to be the no-tank "lung" capacity of the player. If the first tank is swapped out with 45 seconds or more of air, the second tank will be full. Swap out with less than 45 and it will be missing the difference up to 45 seconds. It does make a bit of sense if you think about it in that way.

Had this happen to me too. I reported it but don't know what came of it. I just stick to one tank at the moment, but hope it gets fixed for final.

It's already fixed. If it isn't, it's because you're using an old save file in the experimental build. A save file older than the fix itself.

This happens to me also, I have reported it at least 4 times. I got tired of building tanks and my range is greatly reduced.

oh, I just saw ignis' post
