I know some custom units like energy gates, or force field wall, which will allow units to walk over terrain which they occupy in activated status. This doesn't work in TA:Spring. (here this terrain is always blocked for units)
Just wanted to tell that here, maybe you (developers) can fix this.

AFAIK those kind of gate works by having toggleable squares in their yardmap and changing their YARD_OPEN state. More precisely:
In the FBI, the field "yardmap" contains some 'c'.
In the script, there is some set YARD_OPEN to TRUE; and set YARD_OPEN to FALSE;
Long ago, I complained that indeed, Spring does not respect the yarmap field values, and open/close yard is hard-wired to factory building and not controllable by "set YARD_OPEN".
Your post seem to indicate this hasn't been fixed yet. If this is the case, then read that post. Then have a dev fix it.

The spring yardmap is on off in nature. There are bits of code for factories opening and closing but I dont think the cob script supports it.
This is why you can build turrets in open factories. This is why commanders try to walk through kbot factories bash into the side of the wall and give up, sometimes geting stuck in the kbot factory wall. This is why you can build hundreds of nonblocking mines on the same position. This is why AIs sometimes build mexes in factorys. This is why you can build lots of autofacs ontop of eachother if you place them correctly.
