In spite of this report, I took no damage while in that room.

They should probably also report the temperature in C, not K.
That temperature is only 50.6 C /123 F, hardly "lethal", anyway.

Hot & Cold: Extreme Temperature Safety
If you intend to travel outdoors, you should be prepared to deal with all sorts of weather. This might mean the rainiest days to the driest, and from the hottest daytime hours to the coldest nights.
The human body has a normal core temperature between 98.6 and 99.9 degrees Fahrenheit (F). In order to maintain this temperature without the aid of any warming or cooling device, the external environment must be at about 82 F. Clothes aren’t just a social convention — they’re necessary warming tools. We can usually add on more layers in colder months, and use fans or air conditioners in warmer months in order to maintain that healthy core temperature.
However, in some cases, you may find yourself in an environment with temperature extremes. It’s essential to know what health concerns you may face, and how to avoid any temperature-related problems.

Part 2 of 3
It’s important to note that the temperature reading on a thermometer is not necessarily the temperature for which you should be concerned. The relative humidity in an environment can significantly affect what’s called the “apparent temperature,” or the temperature you actually feel. If the air temperature reads 85 F, but there’s zero humidity, it will actually feel like it’s 78 F, whereas the same air temperature in an environment with 80 percent humidity will feel like 97 F.
High environmental temperatures can be dangerous to the human body. In the range of 90 to 105 F, heat cramps and exhaustion may occur. Between 105 and 130 F, heat exhaustion is almost certain, and activities should be significantly limited. An environmental temperature over 130 degrees F is likely to lead to heatstroke.

wow, okay, my phone totally fucked up that copy paste
I was trying to show you the part where it says temperatures from 105-130°F are dangerous and one should limit activities to avoid heat stroke, and temperatures above 130 are lethal in excess.
to an air monitor based on irl numbers, those are some lethal looking numbers, especially with that pressure

Yeah but I was taking no damage. So maybe that's what needs fixing.

Heat exhaustion, heat stroke, and such aren't modeled in SS13, where the only danger spacemen face from heat is literally searing the insides of their lungs. They're not really "stand there and take damage" conditions so much as they are "slowly sweat yourself into sickness and dehydration over the course of 30+ minutes", anyway. Maybe slow-progression diseases caused by being in a hot room with no water in your system?

I've been seeing them going GET OUT GET OUT about less than 3% CO2 too, not ust heat.

On Destiny, the air monitor in the freezer is stuck at lethal because its 100% O2 and 0% N2
