SET OUTPUT: 'v' tiles are pressure plates set to detect dwarves, linked to the SET output on a memory gate. They are given a pathing priority with the highest possible value (Important!). They should each also be linked to the adjacent 'F's or 'B's in case a dwarf is trapped inside. | SET OUTPUT: 'v' tiles are pressure plates set to detect dwarves, linked to the SET output on a memory gate.

How it works: If the INPUT is ON, the doors are opened, and newly calculated paths will be routed over the SET OUTPUT pressure plates. If the doors are closed, newly calculated paths will be routed over the CLEAR OUTPUT pressure plates instead. This will unfortunately cause dwarves who have already calculated a path through the now-closed doors to run into the doors and exclaim "WTF." | How it works: If the INPUT is ON, the doors are opened, and newly calculated paths will be routed over the SET OUTPUT pressure plates.
