Physics is turning itself off when I turn it on

Hi all! More questions :p

I wanted to test the limits of physics some, so I built something wacky. Only, when I turn on physics for the objects, I get no alert message, and physics just turns itself off. Anyone know why?

I tried to build a sliding door that uses physics to move rather than SetPos(), but the door kept falling over. So I resorted to the hanger structure you see in the attached image, and physics doesn't seem to like it haha :p

Physics will turn off if your linked set has more than 31 primes (including sitting av's)

Also if your physics object is too close to another object (physics or not)

You need a nice wide gap for physics to operate.
