Turbolift Doors
Hello,

I'm not sure if this is a bug or I'm just setting up my turbolift wrong. I have my turbolift car set up, then I place my Turbolift Door (Without attached hallway) However even with the attached corridor if the door if place right up against the car the doors will open but they won't close when the car is right behind it. They will only close once the turbolift is no longer behind the door block (I have my turbolift car attached to a piston). Again I'm not sure if this is a bug or If I'm just setting something up wrong.

I suspect the piston is the issue. I have multiple turbolifts on multiple ships and they all have doors or corridor doors directly in front of the turbolift with no problems.

Out of interest, why is your turbolift attached to a piston? I suspect I know but I'd like confirmation.

To control up and down movement. I wasn't aware there was another option for the Turbolift car. What do you use to control the movement of the Turbolift?

Never mind. I found the answer in your Guide. (Teach me for asking questions before reading😅) I didn’t realize that turbolifts a were just “teleporters” to each location they are built.

I didn't want to presume, but when I saw the piston I wondered if that's what you were doing. Full marks for being inventive though. :steamhappy: Yes, the turbolift is actually just a button panel with a teleport script attached. If you want something more "physical", I believe VCZ's elevator mod has been resurrected and fixed by someone.
