[Critical] "Unlock" option appearing with ANY item activated

Recommended Posts

So a friend had her ship stolen, it was found later but completely emptied, and she was in the middle of moving to Xanadu.


 


I did some testing.


 


As long as key's on me or my backpack, ANY item I activate gives me the "Unlock" option when rightclicking my vehicles.  Hadn't given it much thought until now, when I realized "heeeey... some people, myself included, play with sound off at times".  The clicking sound had tipped me off so far all these times but....... 


 


ARE YOU TRYING TO HELP THIEVES?  I'm gonna assume it's a bug and not intentional.  


 


She was pushing her ship through a canal exit and accidentally unlocked it without noticing, and a vulture passed by checking for unlocked ships, magic.

Very sorry to hear about the theft. bind p push, etc. will keep you from accidentally clicking unlock until this is fixed.

I like not having to fumble around with 728947 keys to find the one i want.  I like Kegan's idear.

sry to hear about her lost :/


yah I'm not very fond of the changes with keys and lock


it makes it harder when you bulk-sell too, since you carry more then one key on you 


its hard to know you got the right key to post to buyer

But we shouldn't unhitch all animal at same time 


at least not since bison start to run off in all directions at ones then ./

Second-layering "unlock" is a great option.. other one... 


 


"....... it is locked with a lock named "Sailboat6lock" of average quality..........." on examine.


 


I prefer Kegan's second-layering idea though, for the simple reason that it makes thieves' lives that much more difficult as opposed to openly visible lock names.

That is brilliant... would finally utilize us naming locks before attaching them to things. Perhaps it only shows this information for someone holding the key or it's clone/copy? Edited by Nomadikhan

I like that feature. Not a bug at all if you ask me.
