Life-Support Rationing: ECLSS Failure Triage Simulator (2D)

A partial life-support failure leaves a space station short of oxygen. Ration the scarce supply across four habitat modules on a 2D station schematic and scrolling SpO2 chart — equal split, mission priority, or your own manual allocation.

A partial failure in a space station's Environmental Control and Life Support System (ECLSS) cuts oxygen supply below total crew demand, forcing a real allocation decision across four habitat modules. This 2D edition renders the station as a rotatable top-down schematic plus a scrolling SpO₂ strip-chart, modelling each crew member's blood oxygen saturation as a physiologically-motivated relaxation toward an equilibrium set by their module's supply ratio — so the ethical weight of "equal split," "mission priority," or your own manual rationing shows up immediately as falling, or recovering, SpO₂.
