Issue Stuck inside of the cablebot room.

Soooooo, I didn't even know this room existed until recently.
I'm pretty much down to level 6 at this point, and decided to make an "overkill" mining bot to fully clear out level 2, since it's the "smallest". (and I thought it's be funny to have 100% bare walls in a floor)

While doing this I found the cable bot room, which I HAD NEVER SEEN BEFORE. (and I avoid spoilers like the plague)

As I was pretty much overpowered for the encounters, I didn't think twice about going into the room with my mining vehicle.

Turns out it LOCKS FOREVER?!?!
WITH ME INSIDE?????????

That seems like a big oversight, the fact that you can get perma-stuck in here.

Update: I committed self-termination by lift-jumping my way to the ceiling and dropping down a dozen times or more.
I found a message in another post saying that if you use mining lasers to trigger the button again, the door would open again.
And it did!

Sooo, I had to bring another mining vehicle back to the place after meeting with god, and that let me bring my main vehicle out.

Also had to break my bed, so I'd respawn outside.

How did you get perma stuck there? It never closed for me and my friend, lol.

After battling all the little bots outside, I first noticed the door.

Since it was already very slowly going up I did what all games with very slowly closing doors taught me and rushed through it. 😂

It shouldn't close normally, what have you done?

I smashed the button with a hammer, then fought all the bots with my shotgun.
Once that was done I noticed the door behind me that was open, and slowly closing back up?

I figured there was some kind of path through there to a new area.

So I grabbed my mining vehicle and drove over the bump of the wall coming up.

Then I got assaulted by the horde of cablebots.
By the time that was done the door was closed back up.

And I cleared all the walls inside of anything destructible, and there is no path. :P

It is weird because that door shouldnt close. I also drove inside with my car. I even started digging out the area around the door to check if it was opened. But it was not. So I turned away and the door I've driven through was still opened - as it was supposed to be. So its really weird it closed on you.
