Seems like the more I play this game, the more I notice things messed up with it...
Here's a screenshot of a typical set of bulkhead doors:

Those aren't part of the bulkhead door models-- they appear to be the portals that the Dark Engine creates when you have a door set to block vision when closed. But it makes no sense that they'd be appearing in this context. Those things never even move in the entire game; they may as well not even be doors.
Any ShockEd'ers know what's going on here?

A quick check reveals that the bulkhead doors are, in fact, 'real' doors that block vision, even though they never actually move, and are set up to open farther into the wall rather than closing anyway.
It should be fairly simple to fix this by simply removing the blocks vision flag in the each of the bulkhead doors' Door property

Cool.
The next ADaOB release is going to be a doozy!

Hey, maybe it's like an elevator door, with the bumpers that 'cause the doors to slide back open when pressed in, to avoid mashing someone.:idea:
Kidding kidding... (yeah, I know).

Odd. Which bulkhead is that on? Or is it on all of them? I've never noticed it before.

Seems to be mostly the doors on MedSci and Recreation.

Well, I'll be darned.....
I just went through MedSci and saw them for myself. It's surprising that I hadn't noticed them before; it doesn't seem like the kind of thing that's easy to miss.
Oh, and in case you hadn't tried it yet, NV's suggestion works.

I thought it was a pretty well known rendering bug. I had it happen a lot while editing FMs, it's one of ShockEd's trademark PITA.
Usually happens when the objects is not the same shape as the actual blocked area, and you notice something's wrong right away as you can still walk through it.

I noticed that the first time through the game, but now that I think about it I just had to fix that problem on another door I was working on in a quick map I was doing.
