So one of the things that will have to come along with life support is dynamic atmosphere propagation. Fancy name for just air actually moving between things. So if you have the doors open, you're going to be getting whatever atmosphere is on the other side of those doors. If you open the doors in space, you're going to have a bad time for anyone on there who wants to breathe. But you'll be able to fly around and in a way catch some atmosphere from the planet that you're in. And I think that'll have some interesting implications in future for planets with not human-breathable atmospheres. It'll make your life support system have to work a bit harder once you close those doors to try and clean that up for you.

And we've seen some ships like the Idris or the Javelin, they have the Star Wars or Star Trek force field walls and doors that help keep atmosphere. So it remains to be seen what ships will have stuff like that and what may not.
