Dear Stormworkers,
This week we are announcing a new set of 4 manually operated door components that we are adding to Stormworks!
These new door components do not need electric or buttons - the player can simply interact with them to open and close them.
This feature has been requested many times over the years and is very useful and practical for being able to operate doors in the event of a power failure, or just when logically operated doors are not necessary and it is preferred to have a simpler way of using doors.
If you are concerned about security, these new doors do also include an electric lock to disable mechanical operation. Simply set the input signal, and the door will no longer open.
The doors are similar to the set of electrically operated doors - they come in both small hatch and large door sizes, and hinged and sliding variants. Their appearance and sound effects are different to the electrically operated doors, and their visual style may be preferred by many players looking to add a more realistic look and mechanic to their boats and ships.
In the meantime, we are also continuing to work on the next major update, and a series of minor updates that will be available soon. Next week we will announce even more about the next major update, as we continue to develop and add more content and features.
We hope you enjoy the new components and look forward to your feedback!
Much love <3
The Stormworks Developers
