Description[]
Oxygen is one of the three survival meters that must be maintained by prospectors while attempting a Prospect on Icarus.
Like Hunger and Thirst, oxygen must be replenished on a regular basis, or the prospector will begin to experience increasingly negative effects. If the oxygen meter becomes too low, prospectors will have a reduced rate of stamina regeneration, and eventually begin losing Health.
Gameplay[]
Early in the game, oxygen can be replenished by consuming Oxite from the inventory, or by placing oxite in the oxygen slot of an Envirosuit. As the prospector progresses, they can craft and build better and more efficient ways of processing oxite.
In Tier 1 of the Tech Tree, prospectors can unlock the Oxidizer, where they can replenish their oxygen meter directly.
In Tier 2 of the Tech Tree, prospectors can unlock the Oxite Dissolver, a Deployable where one can fill an Oxygen Container like the Oxygen Bladder or Shengong 'Liwei' O2 Tank, added to the oxygen slot on an Envirosuit they will provide oxygen automatically.
