TorQueMoD Posted January 4 Share Posted January 4 Correct me if I'm wrong, but it seems to me that motion sensors cannot be connected via relays. So how can you set up a two-way door system when the motion sensors are really far apart? This seems like a bug to me. https://youtu.be/4EPFH42k94U Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ramethzer0 Posted January 4 Share Posted January 4 Electricity is not my forte, but motion sensors are like all other triggers. You gotta connect them in the pattern to the devices they intend to activate, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RipClaw Posted January 4 Share Posted January 4 You can use trigger plates or additional motion sensors as relays. They not only pass through the power but also the signal to open the door. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Riamus Posted January 4 Share Posted January 4 For two or more sensors to trigger the same object (like a door) when one of more is triggered, you cannot use relays. That is true and isn't a bug. Though we all would prefer better options. As mentioned, you can connect things with other sensors instead of relays. You can also put your sensors closer together. The other option in the latest version is to use the new option to increase electricity wire distance so you can connect things that are further apart.

How do you increase the electricity wire distance? Is it an XML setting? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, it is the new MaxWireLength property added in A21.2 (see patch notes). Someone mentioned where to add this but I can't seem to quickly find it in the forum. I'm thinking it might be added to the serverconfig.xml file. Default length is 15. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
