			==Air Alarms==
			Air Alarms can be found all over the station in form of panels. They connect and manage active vents, scrubbers, air sensors and firelocks together. They have 3 possible states: Normal, Warning and Alarm. Warning indicates possible build-up of dangerous gases or other issues with the atmosphere that aren't directly lethal. The Alarm state it will close all firelocks connected to that panel, indicating a possibly lethal threat, like a spacing.

			At the bottom of the panel there is a mode selector. You can select between:
			* Filtering - Normal filtering, removes all gases except Nitrogen and Oxygen
			* Filtering (wide) - Enables WideNet which also filters tiles adjacent to a scrubber.
			* Fill - Turns off the scrubbers and fills the room through the vents.
			* Panic - Sucks out all gases and turns off the vents.

			You can view the atmosphere composition on the tile a sensor is located by using the Sensors tab, which gives you detailed insights about the gases, pressure and temperature.

			==Dealing with gas leaks==
			Gas leaks are a random even that occurs on the station. They can be usually quickly located by reports on the radio and firelocks going off. Most gases aren't directly harmful and are filtered off by the scrubbers network, but Tritium, Plasma or Frezon need to be quickly removed using Portable Scrubbers, usually found in the Atmos area of the Engineering department.

			The most effective way of containing extreme pressures and temperatures (like these caused by plasma fires) is spacing the room, which can be done using an RCD or a fire axe.

	==Space wind==		==Space wind==
	Explosive decompression, or ''space wind,'' is caused when a sudden low pressure or depressurization zone occurs and all the atmosphere flows from high pressure to low pressure. Space wind often happens due to a sudden hull breach or when the clown opens the external airlock. All personnel and lose objects in the area will be flung toward the low pressure area as if a gust of wind blows you towards the breach site, thus the name 'Space Wind' is dubbed.

All personnel and lose objects in the area will be flung toward the low pressure area as if a gust of wind blows you towards the breach site, thus the name 'Space Wind' is dubbed.

	Space wind is very deadly to any crew member not wearing hardsuits with internals. Space wind will often suck you far away from safety and toward the breach site. The damage you take from slamming into objects(and objects slamming into you) along with depressurization, lack of oxygen, and freezing temperatures will often quickly kill any unsuspecting crewmember who gets caught.
