Information about locking doors

[Inge Jones]

Just thought I'd share that I discovered the code that is responsible for causing Sims not to want objects that are the other side of a locked door. I thought by the time I found it that it would be common knowledge, but seeing as TwoJeffs and Pescado didn't know already, it's worth posting...

The solution is the line in global BHAV 0x03D6 which sets the route blocking flags. Once that flag is set, the game knows it must check your door's portal test to see if the Sim can get to things beyond the door.

Will it stop sims from wanting to interact with other sims on the other side of locked doors like your 4 key door?

Yes, it's the fix I applied to my 4-key and apartment doors. And to my pleasant surprise it also hides the sims from each other :D

I must get round to updating the targetable and prison doors too soon

This is very important info, Inje.
