If a lung isn't missing, then creating a detox lung should be weighed against creating a more generally useful part (like a [[bionic arm]] or [[bionic leg]]), or the cheaper [[detoxifier kidney]]. In the mean time, [[face mask]]s are incredibly cheap to make. They can be worn alongside [[simple helmet]]s or [[flak helmet]]s to provide 50% toxic enviromental protection, nearly as much as a lung. [[Gene]]s can also provide toxic resistance or full immunity. Using one source of resistance is usually sufficient against toxic fallout and rot stink, and somewhat elevates the threat of tox gas. |
− | + | Detox lungs stack additively with other sources of Toxic Environmental Resistance. Total toxic environmental immunity (1 lung and a face mask, or 2 lungs) can be very helpful for late-game colonies who can afford making lungs. As an advantage, detox lungs do not occupy an armor slot and do not cause genetic hunger. | |
Detoxifier lungs are craftable, meaning they can replace a destroyed lung when there are no [[prisoner]]s to harvest from, or if your colony's [[ideoligion]]{{IdeologyIcon}} prevents organ harvesting. | Detoxifier lungs are craftable, meaning they can replace a destroyed lung when there are no [[prisoner]]s to harvest from, or if your colony's [[ideoligion]]{{IdeologyIcon}} prevents organ harvesting. | ||

− | + | The primary difference between detoxifier lungs and [[detoxifier kidney]] is that the lung provides [[Toxic Environment Resistance]], while the kidney provides [[Toxic Resistance]]. The kidney will not protect from [[rot stink]]. However, it does protect against direct toxic attacks, like a [[cobra]]'s bite or [[apocriton]]'s gun. Note: toxic attacks are relatively rare. | |

A lung and a [[face mask]] will provide 100% protection against inhaled toxins, but a kidney and a face mask provides only 75% protection against inhaled toxic buildup. |
− | + | As a lung, detox lungs will increase movement and rest. In general, this is generally more useful than [[Immunity Gain Speed]], especially by the time you create bionic parts. However, both boosts are fairly small. Detox kidneys prevent installation of the [[immunoenhancer]] {{RoyaltyIcon}}, which provides a larger boost to Immunity Gain Speed anyway. As artificial parts, lungs will prevent [[asthma]] and lung rot in that lung, while kidneys prevent [[chemical damage]] from [[psychite]] drugs. | |
