Water Detecting Door, Hatch and Duct Drain Override

This assembly is a system for including water-detecting doors, autohatches and ducts that can be forced open to drain a submarine. The pieces can be copied separately from each other for placement in a submarine. By using one of the buttons on the nav terminal as a signal a user is able to drain a submarine into bilges or ballasts.

Water Detecting Door - This door will stay open or closed like a normal door, allowing a crew to leave a door open for high traffic areas. When water is detected the door will close in order to compartmentalize any breach. Crew will still be able to open the door manually in the presence of water, and it will close again after passing through. When the pump override is activated the door will be forced open for the duration of the cycle, after which it will revert to detecting water.

Autohatch - This is a normal autohatch that closes after crew pass through it. Hatches are not normally kept open so this does not detect water. When the drain cycle is activated it will be forced open for the duration and will close again after.

Duct - This is a drain duct that only opens when the drain cycle is activated. It will not open if the water detector beneath it detects any water. This is to ensure that the duct does not open to a room below that is already flooded. When the cycle ends, or when water is detected, the duct closes.

For an example, these pieces can be seen in use in my T3 submarine here: https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3132292900
