Klei Entertainment, the developer of simulation game Oxygen Not Included, has introduced multiple fixes for duplicants and other bugs along with several UI changes in its most recent update. The colorblind mode in Oxygen Not Included has received multiple improvements with items such as crop overlay, power overlay, and other items receiving alternate color sets.
Multiple UI and text issues such as Puft Prince and the vertical wind tunnel have also been addressed. Now resources should no longer flicker and crash the game while you are at lower framerates. Loading times for when the game has crashed have also been improved with mods present in the game.
Oxygen Not Included Update 419840 Patch Notes
You can find the patch notes below:
Color blind modes improvement
- Crop Overlay now supports alternate color sets
- Power Overlay now supports alternate color sets, and "Generator" icons are brighter for each mode
- Rooms Overlay now supports alternate color sets. There are too many colors used in this mode to effectively find excellent colours for each mode, so colors have been chosen to focus on making the most common rooms feel distinct from one another
- Germ Overlay now supports alternate color sets
- Harvest Tool Overlay now supports alternate color sets
- Temperature Overlay and Thermal Comfort Overlay now support alternate color sets
Duplicants and Critters (and Robot)
- Prevent fetch errands from putting items in storage that were never requested. This is a partial fix for "buildings with weird stuff inside them."
- Sweepy now correctly starts and stops charging if the dock becomes powered/unpowered while Sweepy is trying to charge
- CO2 puffs exhaled by Duplicants will no longer teleport their CO2 upwards when released inside a non-breathable space. Instead they will try to find a nearby CO2, breathable, or other gas cell to release into.
- Fix Critter Feeder storage errand type to be Ranching Supply instead of Storage
- Duplicant breath effects now match the actual mouth position and facing of the Duplicant. No more exhaling from the middle of the back!
- Duplicants no longer regain "Mourning" status if there is a dead Duplicant when the game loads
- Balloon Artists now have a status item during their Joy Reaction
UI and Text
- Resources panel should no longer flicker and possibly crash the game when resources change at low framerates
- Fixed vertical wind tunnel description
- Fixed Puft Prince description
- Fixed the Arbor Tree incorrectly stating that it had a seed drop chance. Pips must be utilized to get extra Arbor Seeds
- Significantly reduce wait time when a crash occurs with mods present
- Conveyors show the proper names of contents, rather than always showing their element (e.g. Genetic Ooze)
- "Underway" text on starmap screen is now localizable
- Duplicant age in Bio panel is now localizable
- Duplicant age once again counts correctly.
- Insulated pipes/vents are now blue in the Plumbing/Ventilation overlay, rather than orange, to differentiate them more from radiant pipes/vents
- As well, duplicant "printed" cycle is correct instead of decreased by one.
- Update strings for Chinese, Korean, and Russian
