📋 About This Mod
Clockwork is a classic quest mod by antistar. No Lockpick Activate (SKSE) - Updated is an excellent mod by Umgak. When used together, it prevents you from completing a certain quest in Clockwork. This patch edits a single script to fix that.
Details of what the mod does:
The master bedroom wardrobe can be unlocked to progress a side quest. Once it is opened, it cannot be closed until you get the required item because of the following scene. The script was written for vanilla skyrim, and did not anticipate the possibility of needing to activate the wardrobe multiple times in order to open it. This mod edit edits the script to block activation of the wardrobe while it is open at a certain stage (instead of just blocking activation). No other changes are made
Installation:
Use a mod manager. Load it after Clockwork.
Compatibility:
New game required?

Many thanks to Pumpkin for being a darling kitty.
