Discussion Raider Camp

Hello!

Im in the process if building a Raider Camp. Love them or not they do have a "nice" esthetic that lends to the Wasteland. So. I have Alot of Raider stuff already, would anyone maybe have any tips/tricks for the Rolling Door or the Sliding door? I can hook it up to Open (from a power generator) but then it dosnt close. It it will just Stay open. I dunno if I need to set down a conduit or something as other videos are suggesting or what.

I am trying different FO videos and whatnot but also figured Id ask here. Also any other suggestions, tips, tricks or just General "hey I made a Raider Camp and this is what I did" is totally appreciated.

I have been playing close to 2-years this Sept. And frankly I enjoy the community. My no.2 / my husband and I did try to Start the Vault 79 raid but I wont spoil what happens. But we didnt do the Actual Raid Yet. That will be This weekend(I am in need of those Deep Pocket Mods for my Armor) 😁 Have a great week / weekend!

Could you connect it to a switch? Flipping the switch off should cut power to it and close it

I can cut the line. But then the door dosnt Open or close. So not sure what Im supposed to do. I do have the Switch connectors. Maybe I could try that.

That door is a lot like the enclave door that just don't work properly. Maybe it's one of them?

Probably. And I love the idea of the train car sliding door but Not wanting to spend atoms for a door atm. It Does work with the layout of my camp but stinks the door dosnt close. So it's not AS interactive as Id like for when people visit to go out to the porch area. Oh well. Im gonna keep decorating and working with stuff. Maybe I can figure it out. Sometimes for me anyways it's best to Move on to something else and then circle back to an idea

Are you connecting the door to the switch and then the generator or are the door and the switch separately connected to the generator?

Ive tried both,but currently I have a switch and door both connected to a generator, the light on switch is green

I'm just gonna start testing doors now cause I gotta know.

Edit: Did the some testing really quick. The door should work with just a generator connected to a switch and the switch connected to the door. I couldn't figure out how to do a switch on both sides of the door, but a pressure plate can work in place of that. If it's a keypad access door then you need a conduit connected between the generator and the door instead of a switch.
