The gas mask is a piece of apparel added by the Biotech DLC.

Acquisition[edit]

Gas masks can be crafted at a Machining table once the Machining research project has been completed. They require 20 Steel, 20 Chemfuel and 6,000 ticks (1.67 mins) of work.

Summary[edit]

Gas masks increase Toxic Environment Resistance by +80%, causing tox gas, toxic fallout, rot stink, and pollution to be 20% effective. It does not protect from diseases, which are not contagious between pawns in RimWorld, nor does it prevent toxic buildup from attacks such as the cobra's bite. Quality does not affect this resistance.

The gas mask does not count as clothing for pawns with the nudist trait or with pro-nudity ideoligions.Despite this, it does still count as clothing coverage for pawns who prefer not being naked

Armor and insulation bug[edit]

Gas masks have armor and insulation values defined, but only as stuff effect multipliers. These require a material to complete the equation and actually produce a final value. As the gas mask is not stuffable, this is impossible to see in the game.

This results in the gas mask offering no armor or insulation at all.

Analysis[edit]

For many purposes, such as against rot stink, a face mask's 50% toxic resistance is sufficient. Face masks also do not cover the head and so can be worn along side simple and flak helmets, unlike a gas mask.

On the other hand, gas masks provide superior protection against toxic buildup and prevents the immediate effects of tox gas on sight, breathing, and pain.^{[Verify and specify]}

The gas mask offers absolutely no protection. The only positive effect of quality is a lowered deterioration rate.
