If it gets changed at all, I personally would prefer it to be more random then a clear as day "Hey there is co2 here!!!" warning, for something that has so little use outside of suffocating people, hindering that silent invisible killer aspect would probably see to it that co2 cans sit there unused for anything. Maybe a random message from a pool of 10 different message could appear when you are in a co2 filled area but nothing too specific. These messages could also be shared with other non-oxygen gasses when they are inhaled, preventing a person from seeing one message and instantly knowing whats going on.
" The air feels sparse here"
" You feel suddenly light headed"
" Breathing is becoming difficult"
" Your lungs are straining for oxygen"
A few of these types of messages plus a 20% chance to cough should be more then enough to warn anyone paying attention, and ideally the messages would occur early enough you can still get internals on or leave the area before passing out, but not early enough to fully negate any use of co2.
Also, why don't we just include co2 detectors in main areas that could be emagged or hacked to disable/mess with them allowing free co2 use. Obviously during normal operation they would have near instant detection of high co2 levels, just a high pitched beep to warn anyone in breathing range.
