Destroying Wardrobes?

[TacShooter]

Is it possible to destroy wardrobes? I placed one to block a doorway, but I want players to be able to destroy it.

[Siamese]

yes, they aren't flag protected

Hmm, I crafted the item as an admin, but when I chopped it with an axe and shot it in full-auto with an MP5, it was still at 100%

you cannot damage your own in that way
Another player can just walk up, hold f, and see a destroy option just like you would.

With a lock in its protekted...

Unless its locked, then it has to be picked. Which if you cant pick it..... well.... it can be used in different ways.....

I mean, yeah this is a fact that i can't dispute, however, here is talking about blocking a door which i would presume is also locked. I don't think his goal is simply to add another lock to the mix. I'd be willing to bet he saw this as a way to block a door rather than building a wall and as an alternative to that it's a bad one. If the goal is to add more locks then building another door way would make a lot more sense. The point of what i was saying was that the wardrobes aren't flag protected.

[TacShooter]

I wanted to block the door in a place that building isn't allowed. Placing furniture apparently is.

What do I need to do to make the wardrobe able to be damaged by other players? (There is no base flag in this area, whether mine or someone else's.) Just put a lock on it? Note that I can now only see/access the back of the wardrobe, if that matters.

Do I need to destroy it as admin and then turn it so the front side is showing?

Yes this was my understanding.

All you can do to secure it is place a lock on it. So it's secure but obviously very limited. If they pick the lock then all they need to do is destroy it like you would. They won't need explosives or anything to do it.

[TacShooter]

I don't necessarily want to secure it. I just want to slow their progress, not make it impossible for them to get through. How do I make it so that they can damage it with a weapon? (Putting a lock on it would work, but I want them to be able to use brute force, too.)

There isnt a way to do that.
as i said, it's not flag protected.
I'd bet this was set up this way just to prevent the exact thing you're doing.

I think you're misunderstanding my intent. I am the server admin. I have put a reward for players in the room the wardrobe is blocking entry to. My intent is to make them work for the reward, but not make it impossible. They have already worked quite a bit to even get to this place.

Ok, nothing changes by you explaining that.
Bottom line is you cannot destroy the wardrobes in the manner you intend. Sure you can cause damage to them eventually but they can simply be destroyed without that effort. so only a moron would waste any more time than it takes to pick the lock and hit destroy. There just isn't another way this works regardless of what you trying to accomplish as an end goal.

My advise is just put locks on the doors and board up the windows. This offers them the same two options for getting in.

[TacShooter]

Or...a person who doesn't pick locks because he doesn't have the skill needs a way to destroy the wardrobe.

There aren't any doors to lock or windows to board up! Stop treating me like a moron.

I'm trying to help you understand but you don't seem to want to let it sink in.
What you are trying to achieve isn't achievable through the means you are using.
If what I'm saying makes you feel moronic that's on you.
