still no lock picking patch, timeline?

[iceman277]

its been 12 days since the release of 1.0 and single player is still dealing with the bug of not being able to lock pick containers due to the bug that makes them consume the picks and screw drivers or other tools. currently there is no way to fix this short of using admin commands and before people say "why don't you just use them then" if i wanted to cheat myself in this game i wouldn't play it. so when if ever could we be looking at a hotfix or patch to fix this issue?

A long time ago the devs said that single player is just a copy of the multiplayer game.

So I do not understand why some stuff works in one version and not the other!

Ironically, lockpicking and crowbar-ing open containers worked in my SP game before 1.0

Now with 1.0 I have to always pick twice or crowbar twice. The first time you can see "search" come up for 1 Frame, then the containers locked again.

The second time it works and the container opens.

Time to bring 30 crowbars into the NPP, and somehow farm 9 40/40 screwdrivers to loot one POI!!!!

I found exiting to main menu and going back in usually makes them work as intended (sometimes)

I disabled locks in my game settings.
I'll turn them back on after the patch. maybe
I did enough of that minigame in FO/ES games, and years of it here, don't feel anymore or less skilled because if it, i'm not missing it at all.

Patches usually take a bit longer to arrive on Scum island. I had a feeling we were going to be waiting a few weeks for the patch. I predict some people will end up unsatisfied that a specific bug hasn't been fixed yet. Expect to see a McRib before patch 2. It will still taste weird. Uproars all around. The game is really hard to work with and some of these bugs are tied together or to other systems, I don't hold my breath for patches. I actually hope they've been taking a good break and wish them all the luck for patch 1.

From main menu open server settings, Under World Settings tab, sub category maps.
Option to disable world locks are there.
