Just as the title says, doors block waggon accessibility.

It seems like doors are strictly one-tile passageways.  The only way you can build and array of 3 or more doors is by exploiting a work-around, so I don't think wagons are meant to pass through those doors.  Think about trying to do this in real life.

Use a drawbridge instead.

Does everyone understand the difference now?

Shift+D I think brings up the "Is this trade depot accessable?" viewer.

It does, which is how I figured out that doors block wagons.

Yes, it makes sense that they do, but it means no one will ever ever again build an indoor depot which makes ramps almost completely useless.

It does?  I still build indoor depots.  I block them from the outside world with mechanized bridges.

you can build doors 2 wide... which is no good... for wagons

then again.. it never was possible to build proper 3 wide doors that way for indoor trade depots anyway, right?

I used to just leave it open... but run it through a corridor next to fortifications...

It involved using a statue as the door-support, then removing the statue.  This can be done in the current version using re-walls as statues no longer support doors.
