Lag Report
So iv'e tested your Rotary door on lag because a lot of people had issues with it where i play.
Id rather keep it and wanted to ask you if it is possible to streamline its resource pulling some how.
I think your door is great and rather keep them but some of the staff on this server i play on, one of the most populated public servers. Want is gone for the lag its causing

I have an average static large base with 1 medium miner during this test
25 doors and it is 22% of my lag. Not an incredible amount for the amount of doors but still much more than average / other mods used here.
People should only use them with common sense of course, where they really want them most / will be best used best looking etc.
I normally use 2 for my 1 large ship

This 22% Lag is 0.88 per door out of roughly 26k blocks
Im not good at coding or anything, but assume the issue has to do with oxygen / life support true false , in a non static block just is hard on resources what ever you do.
But wanted to ask if you could see to streamline it a bit so it becomes a bit more practical on large servers
Of course i believe it has more to do with people spamming them sloppy not making proper use which the local authority just has to do its part in, but wanted to see if there's any way to reduce it still?




If you already did that or it isn't do-able without making it look/act stuttering or ruining the esthetic side many people like, Perhaps make a downgraded anti lag version?

I feel many like the idea of being safe from lack of oxygen once they step inside not sure if making it more choppy / less laggy would be causing its oxygen support to be less subtle, reliable..
Thanks for taking the time and i will keep using them but only 1 or 2 per big ship
And cool block

I'm not sure I can do anything about that, it might be the door type that only modders use as keen doesn't have a native block that uses that type

I have tried using other block types with animations and physics doesn't work, also, the other door types don't allow rotation they only have sliding motion
