Description

A large heavy metal lock, ready to fit in a gate.

Gate lock can be attached to a gate. It comes with a key of the same quality.

Usage

To attach a gate lock, activate the lock in your inventory, right-click the gate, and select Attach lock. You do not need to have the key in your inventory or be the lock's creator to do this.

Notes

  • When used, the gate's access options can be restricted with permissions. The key, created with the lock, acts as a manual way for an individual player to bypass the lock's permissions and gain quick access.
  • Gate locks will not be removed if the gate is picked. Instead, the gate will remain unlocked for a limited time.
  • Gate locks may be replaced with better quality locks by activating the new lock and right-clicking the gate. This may only be done by the character who attached the original lock.
  • The quality of the metal lump used in creation caps the maximum quality of the produced lock.
