Create Additional Door Types or Digging Tools for Underground Use

Suggestions
1

Description:
Doors or gates are not compatible with the standard 4-wide tunnel size, requiring the player to either manually widen the tunnel to 5 for gates, or in the case of doors, manually cut the tunnel mouth to fit the desired door width, then switch to the 4x tunnel tool for the rest of the underground system.

Versions:
All, including Alpha 12

Steps to Reproduce:

  • Use the tunnel mining tool to mine some distance into the side of a mountain or hill.
  • Construct any door or gate item.
  • Attempt to place the door or gate in the mouth of your tunnel. (screenshot)

Suggested Fixes:

  • Either: Offer both a wide tunnel (5x5) and a standard tunnel tool (door-width) digging option, and include in-game text to recommend their use in conjunction with the appropriate gate/door.
  • Or: Offer special tunnel gates and doors which are all 4 blocks wide.

This isn’t a bug. This is just how the game was made. I don’t really see why this should be a problem, as you can just use a double door to fit a tunnel.
