This project is to help my self and others getting logic based airlocks, any feed back or request are welcome to further improve on the project.
The Airlocks are based on a 2 door principal with a central pressure chamber. The doors are tied together using logic so they "react" to each other and on various sensor input to prevent venting air(well if there was air
.
Logic functions:
If the ship is docked
- Both doors can be opened
- Both doors close on undock
If the ship is UNdocked
- Only 1 door can be open at a time
- Opening 1 door will auto close the opposite door
- The external door cannot be opened from the inside, unless using the overwrite button
Other function
- Master lock, can be hooked up to force close/lock doors
- External door overwrite, used to open the outer door even if undocked
Bugs/Problems
- It should work out of the box but toggling all button can jump start the logic if needed, usually sensor toggle, reset and master lock is enough.
- Starmade does not seem to save display data very well, so if you template this design make sure you touch each display block (r+ok)
- Be carefull with mirror mode, i would suggest turning it off
