Auto Close Doors / Gates?
Would it be nice to have the option for doors / gates to close after X minutes? Im always worried someone will run into my house while im off hunting. Kind of a pain to close the doors all the time.

Agreed. However I close every door I enter afterwards to prevent theft. Even though all doors and boxes are pincoded, crafting stations are still accessible by anyone and I hate moving mats around or having to wait for craft station to make stuff and move to a box to keep safe.

Other than that I have an enclosed inner compound where some of my external craft stations are so people can't access them (unless they jump a 3 story wall).

Careful on not having a roof. They can fly in, kill the chests and loot them.


However, it would be a nice feature... just saying devs :)

I know right? Having to close doors in real life is such a drag... ;)

They are fine as they are, open to go in, close if you're not going back out, when you go out close it again, it's pretty straightforward

And that is why they invited self closing doors? right :)

Nah I am on PvE so they cant kill my outdoor pin coded chests by landing in my inner courtyard.
They could loot my crafting stations..however I leave nothing much of value in them. If people are going to steal a few minor crafting mats w/e..I guess they have to much time on their hands.
