Door Removal Areaportal Fix

Now works with door-destruction addons!

This quick-fix addon stops the visual oddity which sometimes occurs when a door is removed, where the door will appear to lead into the void. This works for double-doors as well if one of the side doors are removed. The strange effect will only appear for a second before the doorway returns to normal, as opposed to being a permanent fixture.

In reality, the "void" is just the result of the door leaving its linked areaportal, a mapping entity which is used in optimization, disabled without having the chance to re-enable it before it's removed. This addon just checks whenever a door is removed if it has a linked areaportal, and if it does, both makes the areaportal visible and leaves it active in the case of a double door. This should help prevent the odd visuals most of the time.

This starts working automatically, just subscribe to it for it to begin working. It should only act upon the removal of a viable door, this doesn't run in the background constantly. I hope this helps!

This should not impact performance in any significant way. In fact, it won't do anything at all if a door isn't removed. If a door is removed, it's the same as if the door is open.

All this addon does is check to see if any door being removed has a linked areaportal, and if it does, it makes sure to turn the linked areaportal on (stops the void effect) and also stops doors with the same name as the one removed from being able to re-disable it by opening/closing the door (like with double doors). There are ways to destroy a door which has the areaportal work nicely and re-enable itself, but the basic remove function is apparently not one of those, and so if anything this addon is just a small extra check to make sure the areaportal plays nicely when a door linked to it is removed for any reason.
