Please explain your issue is in as much detail as possible.
Colonists walk half the map to move to a new dome end up dying out of O2.
I have shuttles, but they don't use/wait for it.
It's just painful getting notifications once a minute telling me that someone dead, stupidly. And I have no way to change it.

Can you replicate the issue?

I am having the same issue. I can verify that there are shuttles available, and there's nothing wrong with the domes they are leaving (they have food, oxygen, water, homes, and jobs available.)

Same here, it seems like they mostly tried to change for housing or jobs and ended up walking the whole map, while dieing on their way. I played for ~ 12 hours and it was a constant problem between several domes.

And I had enough shuttles (I tried to fix it, so I gave every dome a fully upgraded shuttlehub), the corpses we're laying on the same route the shuttles went at the same time.

Same thing, release day build also, they are getting picked up by shuttles, dropped off at their new done and then... walking to another entrance or a new dome, and inevitably most of them die.

Same issue here with 2 groups of Domes far away of each other. Colonists kept and kept dying trying to march to the other domes because of a lack of O2. I had every Dome with its own Shuttle Hub fully upgraded and still the issue kept occurring.

There is now a Mod on Steam: "Colonists Can Live Outside Longer" (http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1333372074)
I have not tested it yet, but I will enable it on my coming new playthrough and see if this helps.
But a proper fix and some "polishing" work on pathfinding in general (People and Rovers in particular) would be nice

Same here. Colonist walk of death. As with mods there is an issue that no sounds can be heard with them being active.

I am having the same issues, shuttle hub with 5 idle shuttles on every dome but my people keep running out of my SW corner dome to my SE corner dome for jobs or housing and dying along the way

Release version with no mods

I noticed same behavior. My domes where just close enough they are living, but I have a feeling they will die if they try it from any father away.

 

[dramamoose]

Just wanted to confirm I've had the same problem. I added the mod suggested, but I'm still getting dead colonists from their idiotic walks.

I have the same Problem.

hint: My colonists aren't able to walk straight to the other dome. There are some obstacles between them. They have to walk a quit longer way to get to the other dome
