Make plants convert CO2 to O2

Post by Leonardogin » #483636

While i was playing as CE i decided to make an mini self-sustainable station (very responsable ik) and i wanted an infinite supply of O2, i asked the admins if plants would convert CO2 to O2 and Pete(JusticeGoat) said it would make a nice suggestion to bug the coders, so here i am :honk:

Not only should they convert CO2 to O2, make them benefit from elevated CO2 levels by improving yields and growing faster so the botanists start bugging atmos for CO2 canisters then inevitably get mad when they don't get any, break into atmospherics, then scream at the top of their lungs when they're valided for breaking into atmospherics

Do kudzu block atmos at a certain level? Im getting ideas for a kudzu based atmos filter system and wonder if it would be possible to make a separate room to pump CO2 into and then scrub oxygen out of.

Time to a stupid autism project next time I roll botanist. Taking bets on how long it takes for me to get lynched for trying.

From what I remember o2/n2 consuming kudzu usually only affects the turf it's on, other turfs are unaffected.

if you want infinite O2 i would rather exploit the infinite O2 gas miners that can be found on some ruins

but plants dont convert co2 to o2. They convert h2o to o2. They convert co2 to sugar.
