"A gate's extent is determined by a \"flood fill\" operation. When you trigger a gate block, all compatible neighboring blocks will be considered part of the same structure and will move in unison. Only gate blocks that are aligned with each other will be considered part of the same gate. If you wish to build adjoining gates (for example, a large pair of double doors that meet in the center) you'll need to make use of gate edge blocks to prevent it all from being considered one big door. Note that if your gate does not abut any other gates you don't actually need to define its edges this way - you don't have to use edge blocks in this case."
.."\n\n"..
"If a gate has no hinge nodes it will be considered a sliding gate. When triggered, the gate code will search for a direction that the gate can slide in and will move it in that direction at a rate of one block-length per second. Once it reaches an obstruction it will stop, and when triggered again it will try sliding in the opposite direction."
.."\n\n"..
"If a gate has hinge nodes then triggering it will cause the gate to try swinging around the hinge. If the gate has multiple hinges and they don't line up properly the gate will be unable to move. Note that the gate can only exist in 90-degree increments of orientation, but the gate still looks for obstructions in the region it is swinging through and will not swing if there's something in the way.")
