Lock Me Tender - Lock Doors

It's quite simple and intuitive: When you use it, you get the proper result.

If it's supposed to work in that particular case, it does, if not, all goes on as usual.

NORMAL DOORS

Anywhere

You can lock doors anywhere if you have the key.

Open doors play their normal animation and get locked with a "click!"

Already-closed doors get simply locked with the mandatory "click!"

If you try to lock or unlock with this a door for which you don't have the key, the door just activates normally.

Inns & Player Homes

When inside an inn or a player home, you can also lock and unlock doors which don't have a native lock, a basic one will be added by the game.

The latest door locked will also have the surrounding navmeshes cut. This is to avoid that idling NPCs unlock them... they're all master lockpickers.

Locking another door, in the same location or another one, will move the collision box to it, freeing the previous one.

Unlocking (with this, of course) any of those locked doors will remove the navcut.

How-to

L_SHIFT+E to activate the lock/unlock.

You can change L_SHIFT to another key with the console command set LockDoorGLB to DecimalKeyCode, or in CK/SSEEdit by changing the value of the global variable LockDoorGLB.

E is of course the default activate/use key. If you changed it to a custom key, you will use the new one.

LOAD DOORS (the ones that move you to another cell)

These kinds of doors would be better left alone.

Anyway, if you lock an entrance door from the inside, you will actually lock the exterior one, and it won't usually show the 'locked' status. When you exit, you find the outside door... locked. That's how the game works, there's nothing I can do.

This happens with interior-to-exterior doors (entrance doors), it doesn't seem to happen in interior-to-interior cases (eg., doors to basements).

Anywhere but Inns and Player Homes

If you have been able to lock an entrance door from the inside, it means that you have the key, no problem in getting back in.

But... inns and player homes are slightly different, see below.
