An '''autodoor''' allows colonists passage through walls. It will connect to a [[power conduit]] up to six tiles away. When powered, it will open so quickly that pawns passing through are not slowed at all. When not powered, autodoors function exactly like their normal counterparts, and when pawns pass through, they open and close at the same speed of a normal door.

The autodoor draws 50 W of power at all times. If not enough power is available, the autodoor behaves just like a regular door of the same material.

Contrarily to the in-game description, not all autodoors allow unimpeded movement. Actually, a powered autodoor opens at 400% speed. This means that all powered autodoors not made of stone do not slow colonists down. Stone autodoors open slightly faster than regular wooden doors.

A very fast moving pawn would be slowed even by the fastest autodoors, because none of them open instantly.

The below animation displays the difference in slow down (the animals all have an identical movement speed of 5 c/s).
