You're right, there is currently no way to test for the state of a door., and those event handlers (on door) are not currently mapped in 8-bit mode.

I'll see what I can do at my end, but it'll probably be a week before I can look at this.

You can work around this by manually coding a door, or possibly by using the door_operation function (if it's possible).

This should get you started if you want to take this path (remove the door from the barrier section).

// Boolean section
booleans {
   is_door_locked : boolean "true";
   is_door_open   : boolean "false";
}
// In on_command{} section
: match "open door" {
   // Code your open door logic here
}
: match "close door" {
   // Code your close door logic here
}
: match "unlock door" {
   // Code your unlock door logic here
}
: match "lock door" {
     // Code your lock door logic here
}
// Direction that door is blocking
: match "n _" {
   : if (is_at "your_location_id" && is_door_open == false) {
     // This manually blocks (without using the blocks {} section
     : print "The door is in your way";
     : done;
   }
}
