Suggestion: Introduce some form of audible indictator that you require a gas mask/filter, and that the filter is due to run out.
Why it would be worth adding: The lack of an audible indictator has caused many unnecessary deaths to many players and staff members alike whom enter these zones prepared (or even unprepared in some instances). Yes, this includes you @Appetite Ruining Kebab. At this rate, this addition would be a necessity to ensure a quality of life, especially if said deaths are supposed to punish players long-term.
Necessary content:
MP3 and code amendment.

Yeah ngl just a fleeting message in chat in the most dull unnoticable colour going 'your characters lungs are fucking dissolving btw' is the reason why plentiful people just drop and die without ever realizing they're in a gas zone.

Ideally the gas system and plugin as a whole needs a rewrite and overhaul as well to be fair.

@Numbers not sure if you have already done this but back when we had gas on clockwork BQ did a /textadd on all the areas you can enter the gas zone, could do this to make the gas more noticeable

not only that

but the message comes in a desync timing.
you get the message, and apparently you already lost 25% health and it keeps dropping down.
as soon as the system ticks in, you lose hp, even if you ran back to the safe zone, till the message of u r safe ticks back (which is too desyncronized and delayed), you just get damaged, despite being already in breathable area

rewrite is the dream :)
