Two-Way Powered Doors Using Logic Gates 🎛️ Fallout 4 No Mods Shop Class

Today's tutorial is the follow-up video to yesterday's Introduction to Logic Gates. In this video, we'll be building our first practical application using logic gates which is a way to hook up a powered door so it can be opened from one side and closed from the other.

[@Kitty-Marks]

Paul, I use that same garage door in my settlement but I hook them up to the city attack siren so the door stays open at all times until the settlement gets attacked then the city gates close once the siren goes off.

[@Openchipmunk79]

Saraphiene Haldritch that’s actually a really good idea I never thought about that thanks for the idea

[@valiroime]

Might make a good episode. Otherwise, I'll have to play around with this and try to work out the specifics once I get back to FO4 from my sojurn to Skyrim.

[@SkooledZone]

Great idea Saraphiene! The only problem I've run into with the siren is that the settlers don't usually turn on the siren until half the battle is over and settlers have already run outside to join the fight. It would've been so cool if the siren was sensor activated like the turrets and the spotlight.

[@joesouth1168]

Skooled Zone How about hooking the siren up to a tripwire? Leave the siren switched on. Then the trip wire could turn it on when tripped. it might work.

[@vaughnjolley9222]

Skooled Zone I have guard posts beside my sirens so settlers are always there. I have 2 defense gates that close on 2 separate sirens. When the siren activates, an emergency flare goes up, the main door closes and my "defense" doors open. My main defence grid also powers up(the reason being I don't get attacked with 500 defense.) I also have a 6 switch code lock on my armory. Using 2 AND gates and 4 XOR gates plus 6 switches . I use the advanced settlement power mod( I know it's a mod free channel, but by using this I am given a siren activator and deactivator. I wired both of my gates to these sensors and brought it to my fast travel target. So if my settlement is under attack I can manually activate and deactivate the siren from the security of my home.

[@SUBEGAP]

years later and your tutorials are the still the foundation of my subsequent fallout 4 settlement builds. god bless you king!

[@therealovidox]

Hey buddy did guy find any other good KZbin channels for settlement building and especially all the electrical and electronics items?

[@dustinpoff5388]

Playing fallout for the first time lol. Watching your videos helped me a ton, now I just get Side tracked in settlements and forget about the actual game lol.

[@perdedor3571]

Paul, easy recipe for doors that close during an attack: hook up a powered door to the output of an XOR Gate. For the input you need to have one line to direct power and the other line running to a siren. Keep your siren RIGHT next to a guard post and when you get attacked your settler manning that post will activate the alarm, putting the other settlers on high alert, and close the gates at the same time. BONUS POINTS: you can hook a mortar up to the siren with a flare in it, now when you get attacked you can alert settlers, close off the settlement, AND call in a counter attack. NOTE: It's important to shield your generator extremely well. If it get's taken out, the doors will open!

[@perdedor3571]

I can also make a door that is double switched and is set up to shut down in case of emergency. lmk if youd like to know how.

[@jhaytea2257]

i know it's old but i tried this and it didn't work? i think you're referring to the NAND logic gate. if you use XOR or XNOR then it only opens during an attack

[@adamb89]

You can link your powered doors, turrents, alarm, and spotlights all to a single switch. If your settlement is attacked, flip the one switch and the whole place goes on lockdown with colored flashing lights, sirens, etc. Not as practical as leaving a bunch of turrets connected 24/7 but for immersion it's pretty cool. Then after the fight is over you can turn it all off and everything goes back to normal. If you don't want to listen to a bunch of turrets chugging all the time.

[@nubisimmortal]

Dude, these classes are fantastic for brand new players like me who jumped on the Fallout bandwagon after the Amazon Prine show These logic gates are similar to what we use in No Man's Sky and folks have made some insane electrical builds like fully working games and counters like giant skee ball machines or pachinko machines They also used them to create elaborate combination locks in NMS It seems like a similar mechanic

[@SkooledZone]

You mean the Amazon show 😉 But yeah, I've heard good things about NMS. Haven't played it yet. But logic gate "logic" should be the same because it's based on real life logic gates. Here's an even cooler automatic door that you can build with them: kzbin.info/www/bejne/ZpPLgIiCf9t5rbc

[@SedYekvad77]

I've learned so much about settlement building from your videos, you have never disappointed me. Keep up the great work Paul as always.

[@angle.0255]

Destiny Brookey i dont learn shit

[@blackedoutgamer7589]

Thanks to your videos I can now create secure bases with two way switch doors,I can also now hide my generators in walls and such due to the rug glitch and I can also easily wire things through walls now! Thank you for these tutorial videos they are helpful,oh and the settlement size "glitch" (tho I will take high precautions with that as I dont want to break my game)

[@SkooledZone]

Right on, glad the videos are helping! In fact, you don't even need to wire through walls anymore. Check it out: kzbin.info/www/bejne/j5XEg2qjacyWqpY

[@SuperMeethead]

Honestly, this is one of my favorite channels, love how thorough you are! I can't even begin to tell you how much this has improved my settlement builds!

[@GalileonPrime]

First off thanks for this video, I was finally able to wire an electric door in my settlement! Tyvm BUT, I just watched a similar video on the same subject from norespawn. He made it two years ago. He made a total hash of his example. However, one of the commenters was able to give a clearer explanation. Basically, with the door mounted so that the power input conduit is on the outside. You bring power to the inside switch, then route it from there to the outside switch, which is connected to the doors power input coduit. This method only requres three wires and switching off the inside switch locks the door in the closed position.

[@AdamsYoutubee]

5yrs later and this is a lifesaver - awesome advice mate

[@3800Solo]

Thank God I was trying to do this the other day on Spectical island

[@rustbucket1043]

Dude, you chose the right settlement to build at.

[@NSDIMMU]

This is great thanks. I built my own personal Generals house in Sanctuary, and i was getting annoyed with settlers using my bed!

[@SkooledZone]

You can actually assign settlers to specific beds so they never use yours 😉

[@kracktart1508]

That explanation at the end of why you used XNOR instead of XOR was really helpful!

[@thehandyman83]

OMG when he opened that 'craw space' I was cracking up. This is all so clean!

[@nachobidness6667]

Late to the party, but I used logic gates, power counters, some shooting pulse switches, a couple manufacturing machines, delay switches, and some other whatnots to build a target range game that keeps score and dispenses prizes. It was part of my boardwalk at Nordhagen beach. It's called "Working Target Range" on my channel.

[@shadienastie2485]

I found a simple way to use a 2 way garage door. 1. First set down the door. 2.Take a pass through connector in the conduit section and run it through the wall of the door with the conduit facing outside. 3. Snap a switch from the conduit section to the wall pass through connector. 4. Snap another conduit to the switch. 5. On the outside of the garage door place a switch and connect the wire to the wall pass through conduit. 6. Connect the outside switch to the door. 7. Place a power source and connect it to the inside power switch. ONLY CONNECT THE INSIDE. 8. Should be complete. Test it out. If you switch on and off both switches and the door should be complete. I found this out a few months ago and it doesn't even require a glitch. All workshop mechanics! Hope my instructions were clear and I hope you can figure it out to maybe do a small video on it because I've had trouble with the door for years and I still don't understand logic gates so my discovery was life changing for me.

[@scrappydoo3987]

I know I’m super late but I’ve recently started another play through on fallout 4 and I never got much into settlement building in my old games but that was my main goal this game and the realized real quick it is so hard to build cool settlements but your videos have helped so much!! Thank you!!

[@SkooledZone]

Thanks Tyler. Go through the playlist and you should be a champ at the end. ;-)

[@MrStevesTrains]

This is getting good! 😮 Run the pwr and spotlight through a logic gate. Run the logic gate output to the siren and the siren is connected to the door. Leave the siren switch in the on position. When the spotlight activates, the logic gate opens the circuit to the siren and door closes. 🎉👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

[@BWTF_Ben]

I'm so thankful for this video. I would not have figured this two way door system without it. I wound up doing this for my Atom Cats Garage build at Abernathy. :)

[@SkooledZone]

Glad it helped! :)

[@shaker7804]

I know you dont use mods, but those ugly bushes around settlement or poking through floors etc. SCRAP THEM. Plus I use a bit of green grass. In Chernobyl plants and animals thrive. However love your lessons, most helpful. A natural teacher.

[@XxkohoxX]

Man you’ve improved my building so much with these videos. Could you possibly do a segment on simple and advanced factory and conveyor systems. I’ve been having a hard time with it and there’s not very specific videos out there. I Think it would be a perfect subject for you to cover, you could even find applications for logic gates with advanced factories.

[@SkooledZone]

Yup, manufacturing is definitely coming up now that we're in the double-black diamond lessons.

[@ToUnderstandAFool]

This video reminded me of my old habit of using boxcar doors on almost everything. They fit everywhere.

[@hiddentechgems]

I've found a way to do this without the AND logic gate. It turns out that if you connect a power source to the wall-switch on the outside, then connect the outside switch to the wall-switch on the inside, then connect the wire form the inside wall-switch to the door, you have an AND logic system without the need for the logic gate. Though, the logic gate does look a LOT nicer. If you're going for aesthetics, the logic gates are DEFINITELY the way to go.

[@distantwanderer3440]

I Always Enjoy your Video's Paul..Thank You😁I've Learned soooo Much From your Video's.

[@trh2032]

Can't believe you're doing lesson 42 already. Great work

[@SkooledZone]

IKR? Time flies.

[@ErinsAaron]

I'd like to thank you for this incredible video series. I enjoyed them when they were new, and now that I'm reinstalling Fallout to my PS, I look forward to enjoying them all again.

[@morriskallappa6138]

Finally after so long of me trying to get this right you are so helpful and a genius thank you ☺️🥳

[@SkooledZone]

😁👍

[@DEMONITION1723]

Using logic gates i made double doors for my entrance. They open and close individually, front door opens to security. Security can open next. If failed security check as threat, they can also call siren. Closing both doors, and if you happen to be trapped, you are trapped with another door that reveals a shotgun turret that turns on with it. My castle murder hole. Custom castle not game castle. It was a self sufficient concrete castle, - First floor with shops and water room, with corridor going around it all, connecting at every side, pillboxs to get shot around castle corner and sides, 2 layer walls, inner window for cover, outer mesh to stop explosives. - 2/3rd floor rooms and with security desk on 1 and on 1 a ledge going round to snipe from - 4th gym and other life stuff, and another ledge for sniping and managing rocket turrents. - 5th backup fusion power and management room - Roof farm, windmill and mortar.

[@ChocolateFishBrains]

Recently restarted playing FO4 and this was extremely helpful setting up some of my new builds. Would be neat to see some new and improved builds utilizing some of the Creation Club content, if you are in any way interested in capitalizing on the recent Fallout popularity due to the TV show.

[@SkooledZone]

If anyone wants to see how it functions with an XOR gate instead: kzbin.info/www/bejne/eJyVhIqErtibfKMm20s You can also create an automated "grocery store" type motion sensor door: kzbin.info/www/bejne/aIbSpHqsjteogKc

[@rykerjb2oo35]

Skooled Zone you never want to pick up the door and walk through in workshop bc the wire will glitch out like that, happens to me all the time

[@vaughnjolley9222]

Skooled Zone I haven't had a chance to watch your auto closing doors but I use 2 delayed switches on a 3 second interval. I open the door I walk in, turn around, the door closes.

[@SkooledZone]

+poon slayer ...I found a better way here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/j5XEg2qjacyWqpY +Vaughn Jolley ...Sounds similar to what I did in my Covenant build: kzbin.info/www/bejne/eX2UY2ywfbyaq8km12s

[@Trashpanda115]

Paul you saved my fricking mind, even though it didn't make sense to me

[@brysonstiles6737]

Could you please try to build like a bat cave or a hidden room

[@BWTF_Ben]

Another great video. Thanks to this video my Atom Cats branch in my current build has a nice garage door for their Power Armor workshop!

[@isaacfrost31]

thanks once again for the help with those gates. I used the pass-through wall conduits, so I didn't have to mess with wire glitches though. It's not as pretty as your method, but it works.

[@SkooledZone]

Excellent!

[@davidterry9680]

I still refer to these, and I just recently got all of the DLC that you are using here. This is all fresh for me. Thanks for all of the helpful videos. How many episodes are there in Skooled Zone now? I'm sure I will have to go back and watch them all. Also, is there a cross reference for how to do things on the PC without a controller? For instance, rotating objects. I know it can be done on the PC, but I don't know which key will toggle the axis. Also, some of the tricks/glitches only seem to work on the console version. That's okay, because I can use the ~ console for moving objects into place (possibly easier than using the console glitches) and the ones that matter, like settlement size glitch and true wire glitch still works on the PC. The creativity is exemplary, and as I said, many of the available building blocks and objects are new for me. If Starfield has similar settlement options, will you think about doing a series for that when it comes out? I'm thinking since it is Bethesda, it may have similar (familiar) features.😀

[@SkooledZone]

Since I use a console, I don't know the PC commands. But I'm sure they're on Google. Here's a helpful list of my build videos though: skooledzone.com/nomods And yeah, definitely playing Starfield for the channel if it has a good build system!

[@idkyet463]

I actually tried to make a two way door but failed, now I know thank you dude 😊

[@samuelpanayi1111]

Once again love the vids Paul

[@SkooledZone]

Thanks Sam!

[@branchcore]

Great job on this lesson. After my survival playthrough maybe I'll put some of your lessons to use.

[@cameronbalfe241]

Thanks it really makes settlements nicer!

[@SkooledZone]

👌

[@kaitheguy7832]

Informational tutorial! 6 years later! Not sure if you're still making this sort of content but I'd try shortening it down a bit. This couldve been a 3 minute video tops XD

[@Mohawks_and_Tomahawks]

Thank You! I have been looking for a way to accomplish this, for my powered doors, and since I have no understanding of Logic Gates, this has eluded me... for years :( I also use the Warehouse doors as entrance doors to all of my settlements for the same reason you mentioned here; Caravans. And also... powered doors, lol. 5 years late... but Thanks so much!

[@davidc4996]

nice ..... i like the crawl space... thanks for video

[@gdrittah7829]

Thank you Paul

[@SkooledZone]

👍

[@keithsavagelives]

Love the idea! Keep up your quality work, Paul!

[@SkooledZone]

Thanks, will do!

[@validtryy5330]

Dude I love your videos and you have so much energy it’s amazing I love you as a creator and person. Please take the class on some mod reviews! You’re amazing and keep up the spectacular work. I’ve learned so much from you and shared so many laughs with you. Every time I build a settlement on pc I watch you and it makes me so more motivated to put that little bit more time/work to make my settlement just that tiny but better. (You probably won’t see this but even if you don’t I just had to share my feelings about this terrific channel!

[@SkooledZone]

Hey thanks so much Whispers. I try to read every comment when I get time. :) Glad the videos are helping! I might start a Modded Shop Class a little further down the road but I still have so much left to show in the No Mods Shop Class first. ;-)

[@death2all79zx]

Thank you!

[@Otto6248]

your videos are great i have gone back to not using mods for building with my game since watching this series Cause i can now build way better with out having to worry the mods are going to glitch my game up (happened a lot) Keep up the great work!

[@Otto6248]

yea i still use some mods just stopped using mods for building

[@commonwealthconstructionin1641]

Great tip about the trade caravan post. Thanks for the awesome video.

[@SkooledZone]

You bet, and thanks for watching.

[@Piecemaker1623]

YAY!!!!!! I got my door to work. So Paul.... when’s the next lesson? Ahh so many power doors to correct now.

[@SkooledZone]

Awesome Beth! Next lesson soon. =)

[@ShadowRealmRadioo]

More tech savvy stuff like this too would be doooope

[@witnesszer0]

This is the video i was waiting for professor Skooled Zone!!!

[@CIAG4PNP]

You are a good teacher ! Awesome explanation while keeping your class awake ! Enjoy your videos

[@kargandarr]

Added security level there. Put power from the generator into an And gate with the power through a switch on one side and the the output of this gate to the X-Nor to power the gate switches.

[@gakudzu7282]

Great vid! I did not know that about the caravan posts. Good info. I usually throw down 3 sleeping bags under the canopy for the traders to nap on. And assign my provisioners to them to keep the pack brahmin from wandering around. Kinda evil pro-tip: Kill the trader's brahmin from stealth out in the 'wealth if you get tired of them getting stuck in your settlement. I know, "That's mean!", but damn do they get annoying.

[@Kevin-tb4bo]

Nice. Leaned a lot here, but logic gates are still over my head.

[@SkooledZone]

Hopefully it'll get easier as I post more videos about it. :)

[@sharpskinhead6977]

It feels like I'm at an engineering class.

[@cooperton4949]

I like using the gate that sends power if exactly 1 input has power. That way you can open and close the door from either side no matter what position the switches are in

[@SkooledZone]

Indeed. I think I mentioned that in a pop-up near the end of the video, iirc.

[@valtagez]

Awesome tips keep up the great work really helps out

[@SkooledZone]

👍

[@crumblingdata5169]

this will be awsome to use for my finch farm outpost/base thanks paul

[@SkooledZone]

👍

[@Marc-gi6yy]

Thanks for another great video, I've learned a lot from them..

[@MEAF201]

Thanks for the class I learned something new.

[@SkooledZone]

Right on 👌

[@bguilbeau]

I built a combination lock. I put 10 switches, labeled them 0-9 only when all prime numbers are pulled, and only when ONLY prime numbers are pulled does the door open. I know it doesn't matter, as you said settlers don't work switches but it's for immersion. In order to not get locked in (theoretically someone could pull a switch while you are inside and lock you in) I put a pressure plate so you can always get out. Stepping on the pressure plate opens the door.

[@michaelmacdonell4834]

I actually like going to skool!

[@Misfit1336]

I just played around with the gates because your video didn't give me the one I wanted. I essentially wanted my gates to work both ways all the time like a three way switch on some stairs. I used the NAND gate ("transmits power unless all inputs have power") with two switches going to it's input just like in your video to achieve the desire effect. Now, every time one switch is flipped the door either opens or closes. From either side.

[@SkooledZone]

You may have missed my screen note at 11:40

[@2spooky]

11:42 This was exactly what I thought you were going for from the beginning! Neat. I hope they have logic gates in 76, because _that_ would make a difference...hopefully.

[@L4Disillusion]

This is dope 😂

[@ladyakagi366]

Thanks for making for the info. Your videos are very helpful! Great Job!!!

[@SkooledZone]

😄

[@farstepper8792]

Another consideration for the xnor switches is they seem less likely to glitch and it's actually a very clever Idea to us on settlement gates so that when your not their they won't run out into a fire fight in the defense of the settlement when you should have enough automated defenses to get the job down or you can actually use it to rangle up enemies or you settlers but as for the enemies maybe trip wires would work better.

[@stevekempsyninja3292]

Im so doing this on my current run but also using the wearhouse and also the greenhouse look.

[@SkooledZone]

Greenhouses are fun: kzbin.info/www/bejne/p2eveJ6FhLONq6s

[@privatechanneldonttellanyo6366]

Great explanations! Thanks for these!

[@adamcream2047]

Thank god for this channel, your content has helped me create awesome looking settlements instead of a whole bunch of yada yada across the settlement.

[@SkooledZone]

😁

[@avrel820]

Awesome video as always thanks for explaining that logic switch and how it works ... Out of subject what interests me is how you fenced off and the fact of empty space underneath the flooring i'd love to see a video about how to put something together like that

[@cantbtelevised979]

Genius thank you so much nice buildings mate

[@wetbobspongepants]

I found a really easy power door thingy. The Boxcar doors, they will sit on the ground or can be used when nothing else will work with no frame needed. They also glitch through some walls.

[@SkooledZone]

Kind of like this? kzbin.info/www/bejne/hmfRYmCGhKiIqK8m53s

[@julioignacius7687]

Lol nice. Ive been using pressure switches and a mess of wires hahaha

[@f4lloutgaymer]

Your teaching skills are great! Thank you for your wonderful lessons.

[@SkooledZone]

Thanks so much Nikita! 😊

[@EdgeWalker69]

11:01 Why not show a simple drawing with lines when explaning this? Same with the manufacturing video. Thanks for explanation anyway in both videos.

[@justger3059]

i love intelligent builds... and have not figured out the uses of logic gates. i somewhat understand there use and this vid confirms it, however it would seem the uses i have for it are beyond the AI of my settlers. i can assign a settlers to work the garden and watch him stand facing a wall most of the time all the while getting credit for food production. manufacturing....Ha! so i have forgone the use of logic gate on doors, rad arch, alarm systems, traps.... that is until my settlers can prove they have Some Logic. not to take anything from you amazing videos. thanks

[@SkooledZone]

Yeah, that's going to be one of my requests in my upcoming Fallout 5 wish list video; being able to assign settlers and NPCs to other settlement interactions.

[@browncoat516]

Getting the hang of the wire glitch. That said,with the logic gates available now I still scratch my head as to why we still have to glitch...

[@SkooledZone]

Mostly wire glitching is used to hide wires or make them go through walls. Can't do either with the traditional methods.

[@TheDeathlyKnife]

Paul, i have been figuring out but if you use this logic gate and you fast travel from inside the base you will not be able to go back in without getting inside the base editor. i have been figuring out how to fix it and i recommend to use the XOR logic gate.

[@SkooledZone]

Yes, I did mention the XOR gate at 11:32. But you can also just have your fast travel mat on the inside of the settlement. That way you'll reappear inside your settlement when fast travel back. You can also just leave the door open at all times and only close it when attacked. :)

[@davidblack9071]

Instead of using switches I use the trip wires and pressure plates and a series of two doors so that only one door opens at a time. I have most of my defensive turrets at this point so that no one can enter my settlements unless they are friendly. I do have a mod (covenant wall mod) to wall off the settlement but you could use the cement DLC.

[@SkooledZone]

That's a good idea, David, but is there a way to keep the pressure plates on without mods? I tried that originally but as soon as you step off the pressure plate the door immediately starts to close.

[@davidblack9071]

You use the pressure plate (in conjunction with logic gates) so it closes behind you.

[@SkooledZone]

Interesting, so your gate doesn't start immediately closing as soon as you step off the pressure plate? If that's the case, I'd love to know how you do that. If it's something I can show the "class" I'll definitely credit you in a video!

[@davidblack9071]

It is easier to explain that it would for me to make a video. It is pretty easy. Just use an OR or XOR gate on your pressure switches in like a W pattern. Two OR gates and three pressure switches the middle one opening up two doors. Then you can use fencing to funnel people into those switches like an hourglass and you can adjust them to fit the caravans. I don't make very pretty settlements. I make them more security focused.

[@sonoda944]

Hey I made the same kind of door but without wire glitch(simply I couldn't figure out how to do so I'm gonna watch another episode) I used 4 conduits instead and it worked well (by somehow glitch the piece to pearce through the door)

[@misterrogersinc8312]

All your videos are very informational!

[@rustyjones7908]

I just learned the small conduits look like the vault-tech logo

[@Not_Mondokat]

I always forget that only the player can use switches. That would be a good way to set up a sort of "bank vault", so that you can lock away all those precious legendaries you've collected so the settlers don't steal them during raids.

[@SkooledZone]

Definitely. Just don't put the fast travel mat, any beds, or any intractables in there or settlers can spawn in there.

[@LadyEvar]

Finally got me thinking about logic gates now... Is there a way to hook them up so that when the siren is on, a powered door will close?

[@odin_son24]

Love the videos ive learnt so much from you. I've done something very similar but instead of using the logic gates i used the timer switch and set them to a 10sec delay so i have time to walk in and the door closes behind me. Keep up the good work.

[@Mr._Anderpson]

I threw down some furniture at my trading post caravans. Benches positioned under a street light at Sunshine Tidings so they can appreciate the view (Carla usually looks so tired), a water fountain, an Eat-O-Tronic, a small privy with piles of cash stacked against one wall. Hey, gotta have something for toilet paper. May as well use money. ;) That's one way dollar bills outshine bottlecaps. Question. Are there seashells to be picked up anywhere in the game? I'd love to make a bathroom with three seashells on the counter for the obvious Demolition Man reference.

[@SkooledZone]

Sorry for the delayed reply. Haha, I got that Demolition Man reference! As for toilet paper, check out this video if you haven't already ;-) kzbin.info/www/bejne/fZyzl5tnor58n5I

[@Mr._Anderpson]

@@SkooledZone No worries on the responses. I'm just a nobody who watches videos & doesn't expect a response. Will check the video, though.

[@chakobsa1]

I've done this step by step about four times and only one side will work. I can't seem to get both switches to activate the door. I am happy it works from the outside and I can just jump out of my compound lol. I'm not going to give up until I get it solved!! Just started this game...I know I'm way late to the party.

[@joharakiri]

It's quite neat but hooking up the two switches directly without a logic gate does the same thing

[@wittmannmichael777]

Bit late to the party. But I use logic gate to make a door that close when the alarm is raised. Had to turn to KZbin to do it like. I can't remember the channel name. But this is the build series that taught me what I know

[@sebastienvangoethem9333]

If you connect a wire to a conduit, then true wire glitcht from that conduit a wire to a other conduit, using the true wire glitch aswell the previous wire will vanish, but it'll stil be connected. A poster of mine is wired and has power but the wire is gone. I tested it and it fully works, but you have to be cautious, as i once had a problem that i used this glitch on box light (those square lights who can change color)and i could move it without the wire being visible, and it was emitting light wherever i placed it, but the conduit who was connected to a concrete wall, was with the wall and the generator kinda glitched because some times if you stored any of these items your game crashes and gives a error. I was able to store evrything (by storing evrything in a specific order), so no harm was done. I wondered if you could look more into it (but definitely save before attempting)... loved the video btw even when i knew how to do such things already.

[@benjaminschimpf421]

So I found a way to utilize the laser trip wire to open and close it. Kinda like automatic doors. But it took me 3 hours to figure it out 😂

I tried making this like a year ago, and I messed up so bad that I ended up creating a 6 digit code lock. It took me 4 days irl

Patrik Hjorth yeah pretty much

I think that's how D-LINK routers were originally built, they were just trying to design a better USB hub and got carried away ;-)

I made one that works with the siren that the settlers can turn on when under attack that closes the door and sends fireworks in the sky that I can open and close at anytime inside or out.

[@gordonschnick12]

Here's an idea, add a siren that when activated, cuts off power to the door making impossible to open until you turn the power off.

cool Paul

[@JDTN1985]

In your explanation of why you used the xnor gate you explain that even though only the player can use switches it's for roleplaying to create a lock on the door so people outside can't get in. If that's the case then in that situation couldn't someone also flip the outside switch while you're inside with the door shut causing you to be "trapped" inside? Before anyone asks, yes I realize this is a moot point given the game mechanics. More of a hypothetical question.

[@aaa-vq8nm]

what settlement are you in?

[@mrmarkygamer]

For some reason this won’t work in my visitors center I’ve done it in 3 other settlements in the commonwealth maybe it has to do with the placement of where my door is? I’m not sure what the issue is but I’ve re wired it 3 times going step by step on the video and it just won’t work

[@FujitheChef]

So I’m trying the Wi-Fi wire glitch to see if I can get a super clean look for my camp but I can’t seem to get it to work. Have you tried that glitch with this before?

[@SkooledZone]

You actually can't wifi glitch directly to a node. But you can add a small conduit right above the nodes and wifi glitch those.

How is it that you arent selecting the floors and walls when selecting the rug group?
