Oxygen Sealer
The Oxygen Sealer is a machine that fills a room with oxygen up to a maximum of 1250 blocks (Amount stacks with multiple sealers within close proximity.) allowing the user to breathe without Oxygen Gear. Unlike the Oxygen Bubble Distributor, the Oxygen Sealer confines the oxygen to the room it's in. The sealer must be supplied with power and sufficient oxygen. See Oxygen Collector for supplying oxygen.
The sealer will only work in a room that is completely sealed off from outer space. This can be achieved with either a completely closed off room, or with an Air Lock. The sealer must have nothing directly adjacent to it, or above it. It is designed to check for a proper seal about every 5 seconds, so be sure to give it time to seal.
Usage and functionality
First get a powered Oxygen Collector and some leaves or other oxygen source around it in the area. Then connect oxygen pipe from the collector to the oxygen input side of an oxygen sealer (all pipes, tubing, etc. through walls must use Sealable Oxygen Pipe, or it's respective sealable block, depending on what you are using to seal the room). Make sure the sealer is powered, then right click the sealer and click enable seal. It may be necessary to supply the sealer with it's own oxygen supply that is not shared by other machines.
What seals, and what doesn't
Advanced buildings can sometimes be difficult to seal. All seal through blocks except for Tinted Glass Panes, which are unsealable. Even glass or transparent blocks from other mods do not seal, which can, of course be edited in the core/ config file. However, even without these panes, it still can be hard to seal the building, as certain configurations of them will not work. One example is having two diagonal panes on a corner. (Fig 1 & 2). A simple one diagonal corner will work. You also cannot have sun roofs, as this will not seal either. (Fig 3). The best way to make a sealed room is to use non-transparent blocks.
Opening Air Locks between two sealed will also (temporarily) cause both rooms to become exposed to the planet's environment, thereby sucking all of the air out of the base. This can readily be avoided by installing two air-locks to your base, one to exit through, and one to prevent loss of oxygen. The best way to deal with this is to leave airlocks between rooms open via levers, and closing them if there is a breach in one room.
