But Capp, what about "Garage Door Industrial"? I imagine it works the same as the "Garage Door Metal", but isn't it supposed to be big enough to fit the Jeep? #JeepsGoBeep

[@capp00]

Yes, the bigger garage door will work with the jeep. I just didn't show that one off because it was wired just like the rest and didn't want to pad the video out any longer than it needed to be :)

[@Shywer]

can we flip zombies with the drawbridge? =)

[@xthecatkittenlol932]

Capp your almost 100K

[@antgeorge3674]

Can you build a draw bridge trap that throws the zombies into a wall of spikes

[@killerbrothers9631]

You know what they should do with the TVs they should connect them to the security cameras so we can see what is going on outside

[@R.Sinnia]

That would be so cool

[@killerbrothers9631]

Yep I hope capp00 pins pins this

[@justinc2633]

this game needs a base overhaul update right now bases are just chests with a few forges cement mixer and workbench, it would be sick to have functionality for a lot of things like tvs, firdges stoves etc

[@killerbrothers9631]

Sheez.... usually when I comment I get pushed down to the bottom of the list?!

[@killerbrothers9631]

But thanks for making my day!

[@HooverM75]

Thank you for the info in this, I didn't even think of having 2 cameras linked together. Nothing really explains some of the complex wiring you can do through or HAVE to do through a base so this helped. One thing I would mention though, when you connect the second camera, it removes the first connection from the first camera to the door. So basically you just have to go Switch -> Camera -> Camera -> Door. You won't need the extra step of hooking the first camera to the door. I noticed that in the video, and it reminded me of the wire swap I get sometimes in game with items.

[@yifeng3007]

yeah, this basically means that these are useless for anything that has to be accessed from both sides

[@HooverM75]

@@yifeng3007 Actually I have found if you go from power source, to first camera inside, to second camera outside to door and set each to like a duration of 3 seconds....they work on both sides. I do recommend pointing them down though because walking anywhere near them sets them off so my base door would sometimes open and close when I was walking by. So I had to put blocks to block the line of sight of them to only look down.

[@yifeng3007]

@@HooverM75 yeah, i tried that, but the second camera still powers off because the first one still goes to idle after the 3 second delay

[@SamTheMan55555]

Yeah, the door only accepts one input. Drove me crazy trying to figure this stuff out myself.

[@OsamaBinLooney]

soooo basically if your base runs out of power while you are out and your generator is INSIDE your base you can get locked out of your base?

[@ShadowzTheHusky]

Not if you had a charged up battery bank

[@OsamaBinLooney]

that doesn't answer the question

[@mark2220]

@@OsamaBinLooney The answer is obviously yes..

Little tip for getting the truck to fit in garage doors. If you put in ramp/slope blocks upside down above the door, it gives you that last little bit of clearance you need. It's just like using stairs upside down in Minecraft so you can ride your horse into the barn without suffocating in the wall.

[@RoccaaaHD]

Tried it, doesn't work. I did it the same way you did in your video, but when you connect second camera to the door, first one is getting disconnected from the door. Also, when first camera is not triggered, second one is not getting powered. I have no idea how it's working in your video, but in my game it's not. I was trying everything, and there's not way to open the same door from inside and outside by using motion sensors because doors can be connected to 1 thing at the same time, and motion sensors are not providing power when not triggered (obviously).

[@Aurocastro1]

Wouldn't trigger plates be more effective than motion sensors? Have you tried them? Thanks for your videos, very interesting as always.

[@capp00]

They could yes, but I haven't tried them.

[@my_username_was_already_taken]

@@capp00 They're a lot more streamlined than the motion detector camera (to me anyway). You're able to hook up a 1x5 pressure plate to both a drawbridge and a door, and set delays for how immediate you want them to open and a delay for how long you want them to remain open before closing. probably my favorite addition in A18 tbh

[@TheEpicSpire]

I forgot those plates even existed. Great idea.

[@rbscholtus]

Are those plates triggered by vehicles as well?

[@my_username_was_already_taken]

@@rbscholtus they are, which is awesome. Unfortunately theyre also triggerer by zombies, and I havent found out how to work around that yet. I wish there was a way to set a weight requirement for them to activate

[@EarthWormJim90]

Great tutorial bud for the garage door and the truck I used 2 garage doors the 2nd door on top of the 1st door works like a charm

[@luki8806]

We need more power related stuff to play with: Alternate switch as a musthave, more inputs for electric devices, electric furnace, electric vehicles, powered elevators, maybe later working ACs and heaters to compensate biomes, etc. I have a load of ideas posted to the forums but no sign of positive feedback yet :(

[@Sanquinity]

Electric vehicles aren't really needed imo. Furnaces/stoves, elevators and heaters/ACs would be nice though. As long as they're proper endgame stuff that you basically don't get unless you have everything else already. Purely as a luxury basically.

[@luki8806]

@@Sanquinity Yeah, it's simply just for fun and endgame content if you want to play "the green guy" and don't want to dig for oil shale :)

[@HurronWarrior]

when i found the issue for the garage door even basic one all i did was leave a 1 block gap above the doors and then i could drive in and out with no issues

[@stephanie5878]

I had a nice giggle over the truck trying to fit through the garage doors. Just looking at it, I knew it would end badly. Haha

[@capp00]

Yeah, it's hilarious to go flailing around in a circle like that

[@RichyN25]

New Rolling Garage doors are better and allow the 4x4s to fit

[@dalronprime8531]

Cool put the drawbridge in upside down and drop them in a spike pit

[@Phil_AKA_ThundyUK]

You know what confuses me is why is the second camera powered when the first camera isn't triggered?

[@HarveyDobson]

agreed, i assumed this wouldn't work. Surely the first camera would just power the second camera.

[@Maund001]

Can you use the drawbridge to flip zombies by making the timers super spammy? just curius!

[@snottytoe6957]

I sat in my base trying to get a motion sensor operated rolling 5x3 garage door to work so I could safely park inside my house after looting but never thought about connecting the sensors together. I ended just deciding that I would just end up driving my jeep off the roof of my house anyways. I do wander though if there is a way to have it activated by a motion sensor on one side, and a pressure plate on the other.

[@TheFuzzypuddle]

Nice work with the chained motion sensors. I was having trouble figuring this out.

[@capp00]

Thank you, glad to help out

[@badbattleaxe5832]

They need to add working boats.

[@jaemonkee]

Thanks for this video! I haven't made it far enough just yet to get the powered doors but now I know exactly how I'll have to set them up when I do get enough points to spec into it. Keep up the great work!

[@georginaramirez35]

Thanks much for getting straight to the point i swear I went through a few videos that was like a whole walk through of game play and then the info I need somewhere mixed in there 🤦🏽‍♀️ terrible. You're the best thanks again!

[@chasbrady2544]

Can you instead use the second switch thing by hooking both switches to the power supply instead of the switches?

[@nicholi8933]

I usually have walls on my bases, so it doesn't really matter about opening it from the inside, I just jump off the walls.

[@RizampGaming]

I wish TFP would just let you make their update videos.

[@odawne]

Hey Capp00, I was wondering if you would do a video Alpha 18 (b138) about not being able to change ground blocks to be another kind of ground block. For example, go anywhere on the map, dig up or destroy some gravel or another ground block and then try to place a different type of ground block such as an asphalt or forrest ground block. You will see even though you are placing asphalt where the gravel once was, the ground still looks like gravel no matter what other kind of ground block you replace it with. This problem is true with all ground blocks, if you try to replace, Forrest ground, desert ground, destroyed stone, etc with with another block, the ground will always appear the same way it originally was. Maybe you could go to Diersville in Navezgane and show this off in a video. It’s something I hope the Fun Pimps fix soon. On a separate note, I am getting a rendering error in Gravestown where craters in the roads don’t display properly or appear invisible, especially next to the parking garage. If you know any fixes beyond, waiting for the next update, that would be appreciated.

[@chubhorntehub]

Is there a way to do it with the switch's? Or does the mechanics not work with having 2 switch's. Or do the switch's just take the place of the cameras and same wiring?

[@rawgage7]

Hey Capp, RawGage here. I’m most excited about the power door capabilities in Alpha 18 and you’ve done another fantastic job at showing us how it works! Stay amazing my good man and I’ll be looking out for the next video as always 😎👍

[@Ljman00]

a quick question someone knows how to use motion sensors get a reverse output like the thing that i trying to do is let the drawbrige go up when it sees a player not the other way around

[@Firebuck]

Swtiches seem less convenient that just clicking a manual door. The cameras though, great!

[@erickalfaro8389]

Agreed. Unless they start a series of actions after the door opens.

[@tehmessiah5617]

Hey @capp00 I can't find a home in the Crafting. Have they removed it and replaced it with the Farm Block? Or can you still grow items in normal soil?

[@Thelastolympian11]

Is there any way to invert the current to where it loses power when your detected? I have a drawbridge setup I've really been excited to use but it requires the drawbridge to be down normally and lift up when i'm around, i've been messing around but I haven't been able to figure it out if it's even possible.

[@kurstein79]

Capp00 you forgot the New Powered rolling garage door and can the car fit?

[@TalismenG72]

Right? That's the one I wanted to see!

[@saiyanprince989]

Can you build 2 garage doors on top of each other to accommodate the truck. Will it clip through the top one or will both have to be powered and if so, can it use the same motion sensors or will it need its own. also can the garage doors be laid down and made to be opening for ramp underground.

[@anarchyorslavery1616]

you could always just leave a 1 block gap above also

[@benderrodriguiz3222]

I must say, you are the most informative channels out there Capp00. Thanks for the info as always and I cannot wait to see what you create in the future.

[@jonard3674]

You need to increase the height of the opening for the garage door if you want the jeep to fit, yes I know it will leave an open space but its alot cheaper than the draw bridge.

[@TheTrekonium]

Much appreciated Capp! Now we just nedd Master and Slave Switches, for easy use without motion sencors.

[@tommyjohnson916]

Hey bro got a question hav u had an issue with the trader not showin up on the map the journal shows giving me the skill points for being there but now hes gne ne ideas

[@odchiguefrancis]

Hello there, im doing the same thing. The garage door opens when i connect it to the motion sensor. It wont close down. The motion sensor works. It follow me. But it still wont work

[@K4y74h]

Here's an important question regards these powered doors: can you upgrade regular ones to powered ones? Or the only way is replacing regular ones with a new crafted powered one?

[@night23fox]

Thanks for the info capp. Nice video as always

[@capp00]

Sure thing :)

[@Kfostergraphics01]

Can the new explosives be wired as well?

[@capp00]

Sadly no

[@samuelswearingen8435]

Capp, I figured out how to work the powered doors without having to use a camera. You run your power to a switch on the inside, then from the inside switch to the outside one. And from there to the door itself. As for driving the 4x4 inside, you need to use three of the 1/4 blocks. Something like this: (F = full block, Q = 1/4 block) F F F FF F qqq F F F F F The 1/4's are rotated to fit flush right under the upper Full ones, by doing this you get rid of the large opening at the top of the door. I know it looks weird like this with the letters. I hope this helps. If you need to, go to one of the radio relay tower stations. Look at how the gate is set up, that should help you visualize what I'm talking about.

[@sadisticangel16]

I hate spending/wasting my precious resources trying to figure out stuff like this, thank you!

[@capp00]

My pleasure :)

[@RichyN25]

That's what creative is for, testing

[@sevendaggerssix7298]

Can you see if doors and garage doors rotate to be flat on ground? I have an idea on dealing with demolishers and still have a killing corridor just redesigned for new pathing

[@Professor-Rook]

What about that "Garage Door Industrial (Powered)" that's in the crafting menu? I imagine it works the same way, but how big is it?

[@capp00]

Yes, it works the same way and is big enough for the jeep to fit through just fine. I only showed off the smaller garage door being that way so people would know in advance.

[@ThorsDadTV]

hey man great video i have a crazy idea is it possibe and im not quite far enough in the game to build them yet and im trying to get some advice i want to build sort of an underground base and use and have some kind of hatch open on motion sensors to come out so i guess the question is, is it possible to set a draw bridge horizontally instead of vertically?

[@thienuc7504]

Hello ! I know this video has been made for a long time, but I want to ask you how to break blocks fast with 1 hit, I want to build big construction but the time to break blocks is too long so I'm so frustrated . Hope you can answer me

[@TheEpicSpire]

Make an entrance yo your base thst only opens to strangers. Have loot crates and stuff inside as bait. They enter, and can't leave.

[@heroicxidiot]

They need to add in logic gates. It'll solve the switch problem. And, or, not, xor. To fix this, you'd need a or gate switch. So that as long as one switch is on, the door will still function

[@capp00]

Agreed!

[@BrokenCans]

Three years later I'm back using this video because I forgot how to do it. Thanks Capp

[@capp00]

Glad I could help!

[@corwinhyatt519]

Can you build garage doors one on top of another? If so then it is a possible solution to the issue at 7:15.

[@capp00]

No not really. You could just use the industrial garage door. I had it in my inventory, but didn't show it off. It's bigger.

[@RichyN25]

Use the bigger door it's what it's designed for

did the nerf food cost as in in order to cook meat u dont need 5 met to cook 1

[@qpirsel]

I don't understand how this can work. When the duration of the fist camera ends the second one should not get powered anymore. It looks to me that opening the door from both sides only worked in this video because he was fast enough. Any explanations?

[@PREPFORIT]

Good testing thank you. maybe you have shown it in an earlier video but what is the strength of a drawbridge? did they keep it the same? Thanks.

[@SoulEater-of5qu]

Is it possible to have a secondary camera set close for zombies so that it drops the bridge and crushes them?

The bridge can't hurt them. They sorta clip through it mostly.
