JaceyLessThan3 Posted January 24, 2022 Share Posted January 24, 2022 (edited) The game uses the term "airlock" to refer to all airtight automated portals. This is contrary to the common definition of airlock, which is a chamber for passing through areas of different pressure or atmosphere composition. We have real airlocks on the map, but the usage of the term for the majority of the doors on the ship is unnecessarily confusing. Edited January 25, 2022 by JaceyLessThan3 Offroad suggested the much more thematic term, "hatch", which I fully support. As such, I have changed the title. Link to comment
OffRoad99 Posted January 24, 2022 Share Posted January 24, 2022 Not a fan of calling them "doors", to be honest. With the upcoming NBT map, as we're going to be playing on a ship, I would actually rename them to "hatches", which is far more thematic. Therefore having a sealable door that closes behind you on its own is far more safer in case than, say, a depressurization. Link to comment
JaceyLessThan3 Posted January 24, 2022 Author Share Posted January 24, 2022 I like hatches as well. Link to comment
Carver Posted January 24, 2022 Share Posted January 24, 2022 Hatches makes the most sense. Link to comment
Captain Gecko Posted January 24, 2022 Share Posted January 24, 2022 Agreed, hatches is more fitting. Link to comment
Sparky_hotdog Posted January 25, 2022 Share Posted January 25, 2022 I agree hatches sound cool and make more sense. Also happy to code this. Link to comment
