Is there a way to build a retractable ramp air tight without mods?

[Chuckles McMerry]

I want to drive my rovers inside my ship.

Only the obvious way, using the hangar doors one side or the other of the ramp

But then so, the hangar will have to be attached to the ground

try a mobile base from the workshop, could give you some ideas. Many have a small hangar for a buggy. Some dropships, too.

It wouldnt need to be on the ground... Instead of a ramp thats airtight, split it into a ramp then an airtight hanger door. Same exact function just two parts instead of one.

Like this ramp then doors on my ship, the doors dont have to be on the floor because the ramp does its job, the ramp dosent need to be airtight because the doors do that job.

Same setup just bigger, with hanger doors should work for your rover :)

This can be done with edge of merge blocks and/or corner-touching blocks between ramp and main ship. I did this things in a very early versions (even before planets) and this was very unrelyable.

No problem.

Button one for lock / unlock ramp
Button four for open / close ramp

Can you add more descriptions please?

[Lander1]

Experiment with different blocks using merge blocks to create an airtight seal with edges that can un-merge. You can create airtight docking collars, hangar doors, ramps, ships that split into smaller ships, all sorts of things. Once you have a basic understanding of what will merge and separate again it will all become easy.

[Chuckles McMerry]

Yes, im trying rotors but theyre not attaching the last block as I was expecting

[Chuckles McMerry]

Theyre not even moving tried everything at the button panel, and switched the angles, the speed, checked the current angle, the desired...

[Chuckles McMerry]

These rotors are really bugged... finally moving, but seems like its about to explote.

[Chuckles McMerry]

Seriouslly blocks attached to rotors move like wind making a piece of paper shake like a ballerina

[DragoF1sh]

my recommedation: use airtight hangar doors, pistons, and rotors to make a ramp extend out of the rear and then angle toward the ground. beware of clang.

@Chuckles McMerry.
Okay I tested the blueprint again.
On a different machine. (underpowered laptop)
Couldn't find any problems.

-Paste the Blueprint
-Press button 4
->Ramp closes and locks (BP was saved in a pre locked state)

-Press button 1
->Ramp unlocks
-Press button 4
->Ramp opens

-Press button 1
->Ramp pre locks
-Press button 4
->Ramp closes and locks
