Iris Hangar Door

Description
Saw all the engine powered hangar doors, and liked them, but wanted one that could feasibly be built on a moving ship (thuis a rotor powered door). For this, I saw the piston doors and one scissor door. I made a few piston doors, and I think I like them better in most cases, but to get a tight fit it was rather tedious due to blocks being too close to place most of the time. Thus, I was going to make a scissor door, but then thought that more blades could make it look nicer, thus resulting in this.

Open and close using the two small reactors (one to left of door and one to right, in the indents in the grey ring) by setting the speed of all 8 rotors to either -0.36 or 0.22
Don't change anything else, and make sure they all have the same speed. half of the rotors should have a 45 degree offset from the others in their current angle and their max/min angles. This was to make the blades easier to construct

I didn't get a perfect placement for the rotors, so they dont get a perfect seal when closed. The gap is just large enough for an engineer to fit through, though.

warheads will manage to penetrate the door at the moment, but a small battering ram was not able to show any damage from inside the door, and the door still operted without issue.

This is my first workshop item, and I hope you guys enjoy and improve upon it.

@Dragonfang-9 I did not, it has not been changed ever from the original upload. I might in the future but right now I haven't had much time for SE

very old thing :)

I noticed. I'm rather bad at noticing when the notification thing says there is a new comment. Really sorry about that. I also had university and finals, especially the later, so steam was not open quite as much during that period.

wow, i asked this back in november -_-

@The Alien Hunter: It's intended to be large enough for more than just small fighters to go through. It could be made smaller, but unfortunately a voxel environment means that if you want a nice closing fit, the dimensions are not flawlessly under your control.

@Darth: That it is. And it's even better made with blast door blocks, which is something I've been working on lately as an update upon this.

Great idea! Yeah, a rotor activated door is DEFINITELY more feasible on a ship than an engine powered one.

it looks kinda big.

Well done! Hopefully it will run more smoothly when we can activate more objects at once.
