Powered Base door won't open
As the title says. I have a solar powered base, there's power running the base, but the door closes and won't open until the power is no longer available. Huh??

Yeah that's kinda what I've ended up doing. Thanks for the input.

They need switches/motion detectors and power inverters as stated here:

Yep. Blueprints for these items can be found in the nexus. The reason the doors stay closed when powered and open with no power is so that the logic switches are able to detect proximity or activation by a switch and either activate or deactivate power to the door, thus opening or closing it depending on how you set it up. Default is open with power off so you don’t get trapped inside (or outside) your base if you don’t have power.

why not use short range teleporters? one inside the base and the other outside of it?

costs a lot of SD modules but worth it imho :)

I use Power inverter and proximity switch. The power inverter allows power through, until you supply power to the 3rd connector. Use the sw for that as in pics. HTH
Power Inverter is top left, Proximity sw below.

The door will stay open by default with no power so you don't get locked in/out of your base.
This cuts the power to the door (from Power inverter) to open it.

Thank GOD!!....Or you could just delete the door.

Anyway, so much unneeded drama in these discussions.

I thought my game was glitched! Damn that's a really weird way to implement doors.
