Gas vents. A way to dispense gasses. Vent fog to hide base, poison defences etc

Be able to poison a room, hide your base under fog, defend against mauraders and more!

Edit:
My main idea was that you could use the wiring system to trigger vents that would pump gas out. The gas could have its own physics, depending on what type of gas etc. (fog sinks, some poisons rise etc) I thought mebe you could either can the gas by pumping it from places the gas naturally occurs (poison atmosphere planets, foggy planets like degoba etc) or if you have higher tech, manufacture the gas artificially. Would give you some options for base defences etc, pressure plates to lock someone into a gas room etc, or to hide your base entirely under fog.

Liquid tanks were confirmed, right? Presumably they'll add this too.

 

Why you no explain the concept more?

 

This is a great idea, I don't see why not

 

I will post an edit and explain it more. (When i posted it I didnt really get how the suggestion thingy worked)

 

won't it be kind of shady if you see a little blob of fog, floating around one area?

 

Thats why you use LOTS of vents. make your whole planet as foggy as degoba

 

If there are going to be base defenses, I want them to go all the way. Terraria had fake floor/lava traps and poison arrows. Who designed those traps? Tarzan? Deadly neurotoxins, walls of crushing, land mines in heavy fog; that's what a space explorer needs. I like this idea.

 

The fog may not even be completely for covering your base, I think it would be interesting to hide trip wires, maybe even a form of turret in the fog, that would cause havoc.

 

I like it. You have my support.

 

It would also be cool for making a neat ambiance in the background. mysterious foggy temple

 

I really like this idea. If there's going to be terraforming in this game (most likely will) there should also be the option to make the planet foggy or turn the atmosphere poisonous etc.
You could make it so that your planet has a constant layer of heavy fog and then lay out all sorts of devilish traps so that you could invite your friends for a visit.

 

yes Someone else made a good suggestion thread about gasses having physics etc. Would go well with this and terraforming

 

Fog to -hide- your base is kind of out of the question, because they've stated that there will be NO foreground layer that blocks player sight. Although, it would make a very nice background ambience, or maybe if it was thin enough to not block player sight, but still thick enough to add some ambience.

 

if this came to be about i would love nerve gas so instead of killing your enemies you can ( temporarily ) paralyze them for research, or capture

 

If you should be able to defend your base, mobs should be able to destroy it.
Else it would be kinda pointless, wouldn't it?

Edit: Or at least an option to toggle it, since i think it would add a nice little challenge

 

Are you necromancer?

Also, if they could destroy defenses, I hope it's tolerable. The last thing I want my time on a planet to become is a tower defense game. Besides, I'd use serious defenses for keeping other PLAYERS away. And they can destroy blocks.

 

Haha nah, i saw this post on the suggestions voting page

 

what I would probably say to my computer with my luck:dispense poisonous smoke to main room-wait,I MEAN BAND ROOM,BAND RO-*slumps over dead*
