Air balance

Air is a solved equation.

You can build multiple air tanks currently and just swap them out.

Why use a slot for an air bladder with ~50 air in it when I can simply have a spare 150 air tank… or two… or 5… The air tanks are cheap to build, and since they only take 1 inventory slot, it’s on equal playing fields with the bladder (which is fine) and the portable air generator (which is horrible).

I’ve gone on 15 minute long dives, and all I had to do was swap out the air canister every couple minutes when I started seeing black. I didn’t even feel like I had to jump through a bunch of hoops to do it either. I just make a couple of tanks early game and then basically never think about oxygen again.

Possible solutions: Air tanks only refill in a base of some sort… itnstead of just surfacing and getting 5 air tanks back to full.

Don’t let me carry them.

Let me carry them but increase their size to 4 squares like in SN1

Make them more expensive.

Or finally - Make the other air options more desireable… like the portable air generator being able to be put in inventory and using less battery instead of held.

Please, please, bring back the bigger items from SN1! I agree, it’s silly that it’s this easy to never need to worry about air.
