Can a door control system deal with more than 1 door

Can a door control system deal with more than 1 door - Car With Opened Door Near Road

My prison entrance has a 2 door system that always slows people down. I'd like to replace these with remote doors, but I cant seem to get the second door wired up. It seems like the game is only allowing me to wire up one servo per door control system, but that feels weird. I thought I saw instances where one door control system can control multiple doors. Is this possible?



Best Answer

This is indeed possible, door control systems can control multiple doors. I do not know if there is an upper limit - I haven't encountered it myself.

Remote door system with multiple inputs

As you can see the above door system is running with 8 outputs without difficulty.

This was achieved by simply clicking the connect tool, then the door control system, then each servo in turn. This has worked for me in the previous two alphas (24/23).

Having just attempted to recreate this to be sure it wasn't an emerging bug I can confirm that it still works - the rendering of the wires could be making it appear like you can only chose one, though. Check by mousing over the door control system (rather than the servo) or by clicking the show wires button.

How does the door control system work?

Door access control systems work by allowing entry with secure locks, which are released when a user correctly presents their access method. There are different options for access methods and releasing the door's lock. Keypads: Users type in a password using a keypad on the front of the door.
