A note on the final assembly of the doors
Regrettably, time constraints and unforeseen hurdles related to more essential components of the project led to the doors being assembled at the last minute. The result was that our adhesive never fully cured, and the physical joints were not strong enough to produce consistent behavior. We made the decision to remove the doors from the final physical assembly to keep the game play as seamless as possible.
Theoretically, the geometry should work as modeled in the above-right animation. The door linkages would be constrained on either end by a combination of limit switches and software design. |
