<Sol, sky orb> while trying to make it so that fences are closed behind the player automatically, i ran into various issues with the Door part:

when AttemptOpen calls AttemptClose, it never passes on IgnoreMobility or IgnoreSpecialConditions

AttemptClose only checks "special conditions" if IgnoreSpecialConditions is true, which is backwards

these special conditions are encoded as CapableOfClosing, which returns false in the general case when it ought to return true

while CanOpen exists, there is no CanClose. together with the fact that AttemptClose outputs messages to the message log on failure, there's no adequate function i can call to silently check whether all the conditions for closing a door are present (this would include, for example, whether something is blocking the door)
