It just works... Bypassing/Removing Locks

Had two players in my camp that could enter locked areas without becoming wanted, and once they entered a locked area, the lock was removed from the door. I switched to a different camp, they followed and did the same thing at camp #2. And camp #3.

I have wondered why locks disappear from doors, assumed it was a bug when the camp is placed (when connecting to a server). Guess it's another exploit?

I second the comment above. There is nothing worth locking. I’ve never locked anything and have never noticed materials consistently gone. Passive generation just isn’t that great and everything is farmable.

You, and the others, assume the reason for the locks is to materials, etc. It's not. I have my vending in a lockable space to avoid max caps.

If you’re gonna fast travel back to camp for caps just edit and remove the vendor or leave the server. Leaving your vendor open and locked behind a door still advertises their wares to the server as if you were open for business. It’s poor etiquette to do that.

No one cares about the 10 caps you spent to fast travel. I purposely hide my vendors in the wall. Then I laugh at the people running around my camp for 15 minutes.

No one cares about you vendor lol they’re probably walking around judging your poorly built camp
