Airlocks destroy gases

Airlocks leave behind two tiles of vacuum when they open; they destroy any gas present in their tiles when they close. This can be exploited to create a vacuum or destroy unwanted gases.

Expected behavior: Airlocks should displace the gas in their tiles when they close; only if the gases can not be displaced should they be destroyed.

Steps to Reproduce
1) Place a small number of airlocks in a sealed room containing a dupe. 2) Move dupe through the airlocks several times. 3) Note how gas pressure has dropped significantly.

This is most likely what happens when you place them together, it should be no problem in case you place them so they have space between them.

If you want to test this you can use DebugGameStep (= + Alt) and DebugSimStep (- + Alt) keys to watch the process step by step.

You should see the air move to the adjacent tile when it closes.
