Significantly updates the Engineering guidebook (more explicitly the Atmos section) to have a lot more relevant and useful information. Right now engineering has been getting update after update with no real change to the relevant guidebook entry. This has lead to a lot of out of date information and bad practices being prevalent in the guidebook, something that pains me to read.

Gas canisters are a way to store gas in a portable container for easy transport.
|
|
They can store [color=orange][protodata="StorageCanister" comp="GasCanister" member="Volume"/] liters[/color] of gas.
|
|
|
|
You can connect handheld tanks to a gas canister to refill them using the release valve on the canister.
|
|
The release valve also has a adjustable pressure regulator to control the pressure of the handheld tank connected.
|
|
|
|
Opening the release valve on a canister with no handheld tank connected will release gas into the atmosphere, at the specified regulator pressure.
|
|
|
|
[bold]Be sure to close the release valve before you eject your handheld tank![/bold]

## Connector Ports
|
|
Gas canisters and [textlink="portable scrubbers" link="PortableScrubber"] can be connected to a [textlink="pipenet" link="PipeNetworks"] by anchoring (wrenching) the device on top of a connector.
|
|
When connected, gas will be free to move in and out of the canister to balance pressure, temperature, and composition.
|
|
|
|
A pump can be used to insert or extract gas from a canister, useful for filling or emptying a canister entirely.
