It is nice guide about airlock but it might be different in reality. Manual door at airlock is generally best option in beginning when you can not and should not automate airlock as it does not allow you eat and drink in airlock. Glass door pressure limit is low - lot of chance of accidental blowout. Also, it allows you pass cables only at roof. Later when you well established and have pressurized room, you can install whatever you want. You very much want APC and battery charger inside airlock or you may run into problems when battery is empty and you stuck in airlock. With solar battery and coal generator on roof it is also most cable efficient placement.
Thank you for this, I just got back in the game (Bought it when it was first released) and the in game tutorial was absolute trash I couldn't even finish it for the air lock!
Does you lander have a labeler that would allow you to make setup easier by changing the names of the doors? Or was that added to the kit after this video was made?
I would place the oxygen tank (white tank on lander) into the green house first before installing the doors so you do not accidentally kill yourself by trying to man handle it through the airlock.
i have the pipe going from the vent to inside the room but the cycle never gets above 8k Pa i have to cancel the pressurization to get the inner door to open
Exactly my thoughts. The pipe inside only pushes the gas in the airlock back into the hab or vice versa. If there's not enough gas in the overall building to reach 100kPa then it will pump in all the the available atmosphere but still not reach 100kPa.
It might be that the doors aren't connected to the data ports, you could have had a power surge if you used the solid generator on the airlock's circuit Or, and this is usually where my problem is, the game just spazzed out. Save, quit to menu and load your world back and automatically the stuff should now be on the list 🤓
Ty Cheers from Germany, i will watch a lot of vid of you. It really helps me
Nice guide well explained. Thank you

It should have a labeler.
would like one made out of blast doors and instead of keeping the room with o2 it's going to be vaccumed.
I would place the oxygen tank (white tank on lander) into the green house first before installing the doors so you do not accidentally kill yourself by trying to man handle it through the airlock.
It's a good tip!

could be that there isnt enough gas in the interior to pressurize the airlock room. release some gas in the room from the oxygen tank and then see

None of my doors or anything come up on the screen when I put the data disk in only thing that comes up in the gas thing

Having the same issue .... the game is quite good but this bug's ...
