Automatic Doors & Airlocks

(NEW) UI configurable settings
All settings have been mapped to the terminal UI.
Most settings support multiple selections for setting up many doors / vents at once to save time.

Works with most modded doors too, not just vanilla. Anything that has the same terminal controls as a vanilla will also work with this mod. Due to the nature of "Airlock in a block" doors this mod does not work properly with them. It can however be installed side-by-side.

(NEW) Per-door front / back configurable detection distances
Now supports separate front and back distances for more flexibility

Access control is enforced, just like the button of the door itself
The ownership and sharing options for the door are enforced.

Lightweight distance and direction based detection of players
Detection and actions all happen centrally.

Configurable to only open/close

Set the doors of the airlock to 'Automatic Open/Close' and then give the airlock a name (case sensitive) and set whether the door is the inner or outer wall for each door in the airlock. Multiple doors on each size are supported to make this easier. (example image above). If you want your airlock to depressurize you'll need to set the same name on the vents and ensure there is enough O2 tank space to hold the air from the room.

Doors in the Airlock are activated automatically when an authorized player is within the configured distance of either side of the door, if the opposite wall has a door open, it will be triggered to close, during this time the door you are in front of will remain closed and open once all opposite doors have finished closing.
Optionally when you set the airlock name on air vent(s) that are part of the airlock and it will pressurize / depressurize before opening the door.

- This mod doesn't work with "Airlock in a block" doors such as the "Revolving Airlock Door". There isn't a way currently to automate these blocks reliably.

- When using vents with the airlock feature it is possible that a room cannot be depressurized if all the oxygen tanks attached are full. Likewise if there is no source of oxygen for the vent it will not pressurize the room. In either case this mod will continue to wait for the vent even though it will never complete the pressurization / depressurization. This mod waits for full pressurization / depressurization.
- When using two sliding door against each other, due to the air contained in the doors there will be some loss of air each time the player passes through although the pressurized room will not lose pressure.
