Block suggestion - Diagonal doors
There was a post some time ago requesting diagonal corridor elements by Mitchell.

I added a comment on having diagonal doors to go with them at the time, the post is now archived.
I have toyed with diagonal passage ways occasionally and I felt it was missing a door option.
The other circumstance that I came across was when I was trying to create a compact continuous flow double airlock. The door options with ceiling and floor built in, do not allow for an immediate left or right exit only a forward one. This makes my airlock quite long and difficult to integrate into a vessel build.
Obviously this exit route through the door is a result of the door parts swinging into the left and right hand sides.
This would not be an issue if the door was set diagonally, there should be enough room to pass through either to the left or to the right. There would still need to be a a complete ceiling and floor as part of the door for my airlock system, though this would not be needed for other uses.
A variation on the Centered Door or Centered Glass Door could work too if the left and right sections were opened. The Centered Half doors do not have a complete floor and ceiling loosing air tightness within the block. The 2x1 doors take up too much room.
A half sized O2 tank for large grid would be a bonus too.
(I will add a request for this too.)
