Door Manipulator

The Door Manipulator panel sets up a door controller: an IO entity that opens and closes a door when it gets power. It shows when you select one or more door controllers.

A door controller works the nearest door within 1 meter of it. Place it next to the door. Has Valid Placement is on when the controller has found a door. You cannot change it: RustEdit checks it again each time you move the controller.

Power Action sets what power does to the door. Wire the controller's power in the IO Entity panel, see IO wiring.

Can edit several selected objects at once.

In Play mode​

When Play mode starts, a controller works the door that Rust's prefab gives it, as in a monument. If it has none, it takes the nearest door, as a server does when it spawns the map. If nothing happens, check Has Valid Placement.
