Longer Hangar Doors

Description
Mod currently under development

Info
This is a rework of UOHCNAM's airtight hangar doors mod, created with his permission. This fixes the opening and closing subparts that KEEN broke in the October 2024 update. It uses the same block SubtypeIds, so you should be able to swap mods without breaking grids.

Background
This mod's advantage over other options is that it has fewer submodels and physics bodies. Except for Sektan's hangar doors, but his are monstrously large. Doors have recently been found to be very CPU-intensive in MyPhysics sectors. Players should generally minimize the use of all doors to improve game performance, especially on ships.

Development progress
  1. Models - complete
  2. Build Stages - complete
  3. LoDs - incomplete
  4. Localization - not planned

Blocks
H4, H6, and H8 length airtight hangar doors for large grids.
  • H4 is 1x1x6 with a 4-block opening
  • H6 is 1x2x8 with a 6-block opening
  • H8 is 1x2x10 with an 8-block opening

I am aware that the H4 door is not completely closed. Chipstix has a fix for it that is coming soon.

The original mod can be found here: https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=950048016

Huge thank you to Chipstix, who did all of the modeling work

When will the doors that don't close completely be fixed? (Google Translate)
