Steam Community :: Dual Door using merge block (outdated)

Soulkeeper 15 Jan, 2017 @ 1:57am

i open the mapp took the grid place it in a working save and it was good , i have it now as a private blue print <works fine> in single player

@Soulkeeper Hi. That file is outdated. Many weeks have passed since 2014 and I got just tired of SE updates week after week. Sometimes some maps got issues and eventually I left the game. Maybe someday I could check this door, maybe not. I'm lazy and old to learn all the new SE stuff. Regards

if the rotars in game would be stable this would be cool<but its not stable >Not your gate ,
it is the pistons and rotars in game ho fuck it up

PEP i found another door that works fine but yours seems broken just so you know

Pep [author] 7 Oct, 2014 @ 9:03am

@bluecontrol479 Hi, i don't know if you are doing something wrong or not,,,I don't think so. I have no time to load the map and check it by myself but I think the problem is on the map itself. I am not playing space engineers since the mod update because you can do anything you want modifing instead of playing the game using the ingame block designs. I mean, I am not doing any check to my workshop maps anymore (as i always did after every thursday update)
You can do a door mod search, there are some cool workshop designs!

can not get this to work, when i load in to this and use the door giving it power the doors open a touch real slow and slide up and down what am i doing wrong?

Copy Cut is working again, thank you Devs, i love you!

Pep [author] 14 Jul, 2014 @ 4:28pm

@Raynor I've found out a way to copy. Try out using Control+X instead of Control+C.
Sadly I did not find any fix for the rotor break issue when merging.

Raynor 14 Jul, 2014 @ 11:07am

Understand anyway nice design !

Pep [author] 14 Jul, 2014 @ 4:10am

@Raynor Sorry, it is a bug since last patch, I hope devs will fix it :S

Raynor 14 Jul, 2014 @ 2:34am

Pep [author] 5 Jul, 2014 @ 4:03pm

@Space Engineer Xexcel Tanks! Yes, of course, be free to use it.

Xexcel 5 Jul, 2014 @ 2:26pm

@pep i like this simple door concept that dont take space you wont mind if i may use that too on my station and ship no?

Pep [author] 29 Jun, 2014 @ 4:24am

the door is working again!

Tiavor 25 Jun, 2014 @ 2:32am

it is so compact, nice :D

Vulpy 21 Jun, 2014 @ 12:36pm

Wow thanks, this explains/helps a lot!

Pep [author] 21 Jun, 2014 @ 8:41am

@Baron using the keyboard direction keys

Vulpy 21 Jun, 2014 @ 8:15am

How did you manage the precision of the upper and lower limits - i only get -1 or 2?

Pep [author] 19 Jun, 2014 @ 11:37pm

I hope today they'll patch the last update like they always do.

BonusPoints 19 Jun, 2014 @ 6:34pm

The latest update is messing up the doors. I see the landing gear do damage.

Django_Montana 18 Jun, 2014 @ 3:16pm

Hey. i was thinking abute something, Can you make a bigger door that can fit a Big ship like The Red starter-ship

Pep [author] 17 Jun, 2014 @ 11:35pm

Thanks! did you check out my new contribution? an elevator plus a door suitable for big ships and stations. With no landing gears or wheels to guide it!

amazing :o

scorpnoire 17 Jun, 2014 @ 2:52am

Very good proof of concept! =)

rex8112 17 Jun, 2014 @ 12:09am

@Pep Oh I think I get it now. Thanks so much for asking and sorry for having to make you answer it again.

Pep [author] 17 Jun, 2014 @ 12:07am

@The Plague I have answered this question several times and there is a video tutorial but it's ok. Merge block is used to merge 2 arms and one door together so they work as one.

rex8112 16 Jun, 2014 @ 11:59pm

Okay I know this is a noob question but I am not a genius in Space Engineers but what do the Merge Block accomplish in this door, I know what they do in general just not what they do in this door. Thanks for anyone who can clear my confusion.

I do hate how the motor settup works. With those sliders. Yesterday i tried 20 minutes to set it to 90 degree (87 degree, 92 degree, 87 degree, 92 degree all the time, back and forth) then i gave it up before i even became to much creative. Great work done here with the gates. But i wished numbers could be typed in using the keyboard.

Deep 16 Jun, 2014 @ 5:25am

My god, that is amazing

pax 15 Jun, 2014 @ 11:01pm

Great use of engineering principles, which is what this game is about. ++!

Roogal Doorn 15 Jun, 2014 @ 7:28pm

build a ship on it

Pep [author] 15 Jun, 2014 @ 5:43pm

@Dragoun Thanks, Did you try it with the landing gear doors locked? I didn't

Wafflles 15 Jun, 2014 @ 5:35pm

So i messed around with the door a bit and... the is no room for error or damage. ram it, shoot it, and well functionality goes way down. Other than that, well done, i like it.
