Air pressure build up stops before reaching 100%
Investigating
In result, no action is triggered for "room pressurized" event. Happens on my ship as well as at the asteroid station. If u observe the pressure inside "k-menu" it's like the block is turned off and u see a slow loss of pressure. My o2-Tanks r also filled all the time.
It happens since last update (Apex Survival)
I have the same bug You can't vote. Please authorize!

Hello Andre,
thank you for reaching our forum with this.
And thank you even more for the update from your side.
Do I understand it correctly, that currently, there is nothing that we can help you anymore?
Please let me know, if I can close this thread, or there is still something that you would need help with.
Thank you in advance.
Kind Regards

Hello Andre,
Thank you for the additional details. Based on the information provided, this does not appear to be a bug but rather the result of changes introduced with the recent update to how air vents and pressurization behave.
The air pressure in a sealed room can now fluctuate slightly over time because the character continuously consumes oxygen, which is automatically replenished from the pressurized environment. This is expected behavior and not caused by a leak or calculation error.
Additionally, the pressure threshold at which vents start repressurizing has been lowered from below 100% to below 95% to improve performance. As a result, vents will not reactivate immediately after the pressure drops slightly and will only do so once it falls under this threshold.
This effect is more noticeable in smaller rooms, where oxygen consumption has a proportionally greater impact on the total air volume. Actions such as opening or closing doors, toggling depressurization, or power cycling the grid may temporarily trigger a recalculation and bring the pressure back to 100%.
You can test this by leaving the room empty - the pressure should remain stable. If it does, it confirms that the fluctuations are caused by the oxygen usage of the character and the new system is working as intended.
Kind regards,
