Pokopia Player Discovers a Clever Trick to Make Double Doors Work Seamlessly

by

Pokemon Pokopia features both single and double doors, and a recent discovery shows players can open double doors all at once. Following the huge popularity of Animal Crossing: New Horizons six years ago, fans of life simulation games were eager for a new favorite. For many, especially those who love Pokemon, Pokopia has become that game, finally filling the gap left by Animal Crossing.

Pokopia is very similar to Animal Crossing, offering players a customizable world to explore and shape as they like. Throughout the game, you’ll encounter numerous Pokémon, and it’s your job to find homes for them and create a comfortable environment. With over 300 Pokémon needing accommodation, there’s plenty to do! You’ll also be building a home base in each town you visit, allowing for quick travel around the game world. Players can spend hours designing and constructing houses with complete freedom, experimenting with different styles and designs.

Pokopia Fan Discovers What Makes Double Doors Open Simultaneously

I’ve been building a house in Pokopia, and I ran into a frustrating problem with the doors! You need to create a fully enclosed space to have a house, so naturally, I wanted to use double doors. I tried placing them side-by-side, rotating one so the handles lined up nicely, but only one door would actually open! It turns out, another Pokopia player named Gawlf85 figured out the trick: you have to rotate the door before you place it next to the other one. If you don’t, they won’t connect properly and both won’t open. It’s a little weird, but it saves a lot of time and frustration!

How to Make Double Doors Connected

  • Place them next to each other in the same direction

Many players in the comments section realized they were making the same error. They were puzzled because double doors in pre-built structures always opened simultaneously. One player, Gawlf85, explained they accidentally placed a door without rotating it first, which resulted in a functioning double door. The most popular comment on Reddit highlighted a helpful detail in Pokopia: players can check if an item can be linked with others by looking for a chain icon under its name in the crafting menu.

You’ll find the chain icon applies to many more items than you might think! It lets you easily connect things like fences, pens, train tracks, doors, and paths. While it seems simple, this feature significantly speeds up building. Players no longer have to manually rotate these common items, saving valuable time. Now that everyone understands how it works, they won’t have to keep rotating items before placing them. It’s a shame bridge planks and walkways don’t work with this feature, meaning you’ll still need to pick them up and try again if they’re placed the wrong way. Luckily, the game is still new, so we can expect Pokopia to get lots of helpful improvements in the future.
