It would be much better if you could make doors which would actually slide instead of just disappearing (Plex). You could achieve this in several different ways, either by just making doors which slowly disappear into the selected wall, or by making it so that there would be some sort of rail that blocks could use logic to slide on so that certain blocks could move into a space in the wall and act as a proper door.

Which isn't practical nor pretty...
Anyway, I like the current way but you have to admit it feels fake and wrong somehow.
I think once more sounds are enabled it'll feel better. Right now they silently go away...weird.
I just think that it would be really cool if in the future when there are more features, if you saw an intruder in your base and you could hit a button which would set off an intruder alert alarm, and there would be red lights flashing everywhere and all of the doors would be slowly closing and all the display screens would say "Lockdown" on them! And you would have all the doors really thick, and you could have some that were coming out of the wall, and others that were coming out of multiple walls to close! Oh dear... I've watched too many of those movies! :D
How do you actually get rails? And do you have to use them in connection with logic?You can use rail technique for that.

This is different from the upcoming rail docking system, which was announced in a news post. It uses physical guiding rails of blocks and push/pull beams to open and close the door.
Cool! Is it known how much progress they have made and how soon it will be released in the upcoming year?
