Can I get a sensor(s) to depressurize and open/close a door on my ship?

[What Zitt Tooya]

I built a large block oxygenated ship. I don't have an airlock setup, not enough room. So what I do everytime I go into it is I depressurize the air vent (via the control panel) then open the door, no oxygen loss.

What I want is to be able to have the ship depressurize automatically when I get close to the door, then automatically open the door as well as close it behind me.

However I think the sensor allows for a maximum of two actions.

Here are two pictures. First of from the exterior, second from the interior. This is the only door to the outside on the ship.

Can I use a timer block maybe? Idk how to set that up though.

Hi, I use :

Sensor action slots + Air vent action slots + Timer blocks ... I may also add LCDs that tells me what is going on.

I'll say create a new creative world and try making your first protoype to gain XP and go enehance your ship airlock when you will know more.

Air vent =

Actions
Air vents can trigger other blocks. In the Control Panel, select a vent, then click the "Setup Actions" button. This will display the block selector interface. At the bottom of the screen are two unmarked empty boxes. The left box is triggered when the Air Vent detects 100% oxygen, the right box is triggered when the Air Vent detects 0% oxygen. This can happen if there's a breach (open an outside door or a block gets removed/destroyed), or if the Air Vent is set to "Depressurize".

One of my friends shared a Blueprint with a video a long time ago that you may use as example :

Edit

But a lot more can be done and it just need a Engineer to test different concepts to find more working solutions.

he said he has only one door
your thing has 2 doors

-------------------------------

sensor
1 vent depressure
2 start(now) timer block 1

vent
1
2 open door(the one that sense if the room is depressured)

timer block 1
close door
vent pressureice(this might need an other timerblock to wait till the door is closed but it should probably work without it)


it can be that the flieds in the sensor or vent are wrong
than switch the fields

-----

if the sensor detect u the ship depressure(thats why the sensor field need to be small or u run out of oxygen soon)

if the ship is depressured the door open

------

if the sensor dont sense u
it start(better start now) the timer block to close the door and pressurice the ship



that should work(and if not the sensor need to be switched from 1 to 2 and 2 to 1

im absolutely to 50% sure u dont need to switch it

it only need 1 timer block 1 sensor 1 vent and 1 oxygen tank

1 or 2 doors = I still recommend to do the Engineer testing in creative mode to gain XP.
