Default How to mod CO2 levels

Hello Everyone
I am trying to slow down the rise of CO2 when submerged to a more realistic level. I dont know which files to look into. It may be even hardcoded? Does anyone have an idea?

Thanks

Default CO2 adjustment

You may find it in gameplaysettings.cfg

However, the only reference I have found there
is Limited02=true/false

Obviously, until fixed, we want false. There is a second version of the .cfg file in the PublicDocuments folder where the saved games are kept. That is the one in use after starting a campaign or mission. The one in the game/data/cfg folder is just the startup file.

I searched all the most likely config files but found no other references.

If you increase the b'sun's stats, co2 use does go down. don't know if this helps or not

Thanks for your help. I have the same problem that I cant find any reference on how CO2 levels are calculated. I thought some kind of a value we might can change. Maybe it is hardcoded?

I have no idea and could not find something useful in google. I thought I adjust co2 level increase to SH3 or SH4.

I haven't tested it to the ultimate limit, but I think the devs just made some unfortunate choices in terms of presentation when implementing that function.

I think the 10% warning in SH5 corresponds directly to the percentage of the red bar that is visible in the old SH3 gauge. I always interpreted that (the SH3 display) as being 10% of the way toward lethal levels. Not that there's a 10% concentration of CO2 in the air... which I think would kill you.

Does this make sense or am I way off?
