changedAncient Oxygenator BugThe new inventory system strikes again! This time I realized too late that I had updated the way the ancient oxygenator works, but failed to update all the relevant files to reflect that. Previously, when you had the ancient oxygenator, you could use it to refill your suits oxygen any time you wanted. But in this old system, you could still run out of oxygen if you did not manually refill it with the oxygenator.
addedAncient Oxygenator BugThe new systems makes more sense. You use the ancient oxygenator once, and from then on, you will no longer lose oxygen. It is constantly replenishing your suit's oxygen, and you don't have to worry about it any more. It also removes the oxygenator from your inventory, and adds a small icon to the bottom right corner of the inventory panel, so you know you have it.
addedAncient Oxygenator BugThe problem is that after adding this update, I forgot to write the new variable (letting the game know that you have installed the oxygenator) to the saved game file. So after going through all the trouble of finding and building the oxygenator, and installing it, that player (who once again is not hypothetical) would reload their saved game to find the oxygenator gone, and no longer working.

So far so good!

This update addresses the issue so no one else should ever have to suffer through my personal failings (at least this particular one) ever again.
