Bulkhead doors broken?

Carl_Bar · February 2017

A look at the wiki suggests this is supposed to be fixed, but whilst messing around creating a new base in my save i ran into an issue where no bulkheads in the base will open. Period, restarts, entering and exiting base nothing works. But my other base is fine with them as do those inside the cyclops. Interestingly the bulkhead where my first moonpool connects to a long tube does not block water flow, (i put a few holes in the tube to see if water on the other side would change anything). So i've got a feeling it may be incorrect bulkhead open/close state data, or somthing similar. The bulkhead thinks it's allready open when it's not so the interaction available to open it fails to work correctly. Why one base would be messed up and not another, i don't know. Deconstructing and rebuilding doesn't fix btw.

Same, does anyone know a workaround or is deconstructing it the only way? (Early Access, Jan-2017 43604)

This is coming from a steam topic, however these were the suggested fixes.

Enter/Exit hatch - might fix.
Remove parts of base both internal/external - might fix.
Be sure you do not have any leaks as the bulkheads will not open if there is.

Definitely no leaks as i deconstructed everything and then reconstructed, if there were leaks the base would have flooded. Also in my other base they will open with leaks.

Yeah totally dismantled, totally rebuilt, came back and the instant i save/loaded due to Cyclops Ui bug. Joy. oddly i did notice when i rebuilt it remembered what damage the rooms and corridors had. Which was weird.

Good news, this is fixed in experimental.

I have been messing around in stable, have yet to run into the issue but if it continues to work in experimental that's wonderful. I missed using these.

It seems to be base size related from somthing i read on trello. if you have a really big base they become an issue, i can, (i think), share a save if you want to see it in action.
