Optomon,

Do you know off hand, or can you look into HOW the doors on the defense system are coded to open? is it algorithm based? does each door have an independant time? becasue i know i have personally seen some of the doors take up to 3 seconds to open

They are probably assigned a random amount of time after they close, lasting no more than a few seconds. I can check it.

Yea upon some further testing, it looks like each door  opens at a regular interval, i believe its 2 seconds in between each door opening and closing.
it also seems as though multiple doors are tied to the same timer, giving the illusion that the defense system as a whole is moving randomly/independantly where its really just a number of clusters that are opening together in unison and others closing together in unison.

Interesting design. would be nice to know the exact timer though. (i could frame count it and tas the whole section but i wondered if it would be easier to find in the code)
