Old West Town Locked Coded Door can't enter

[Jay Shen]

I successfully put the batteries, entered the code from the church, but I can't enter this room. It's a shame it looks like there's 4 lockers inside. Is this a bug?

Are you sure the code is correct? The code changes when you either go too far away from the area or when you reload the save.

The most recent update brought upon a new bug. There's an invisible barrier half the height of the door preventing normal passage. In the other rooms of the hotel are suitcases. Grab one, move it and raise it so it's about the middle of the door height and throw it in that locked room. Grab a second one, place it in front of the door against the barrier. Jump on the suits case, crouch and walk in. Take the first suitcase and line it up with the one in the hallway, jump on it, crouch and walk out. Leave the suit cases where you moved them, they will stay with each loot refresh so you can keep entering the room.

Its correct, door opens but can't get in.

Ok, that sounds interesting. I'll try that out later, thanks.

If that doesn't work... just leave the area and when you come back the next time... the door will still be open/unlocked and you can walk in and get everything in and out.

Same applies to Scott's camp code-locked room.

What? Does this require unlocking the door but can't go in due to some bug or some such?

Don't see how you can "come back and just walk in."

You can't, will need to get a new code and unlock again.

No thats not true... the next time you come there the door will be open and you don't need to unlock it again.

Of course I'm speaking about the same game session... close the game and all bets are off... but thats obvious I think.

*Edit : actually I just checked.. the door stays open and room accessible even if you close the game.. that door.. once opened... will ALWAYS stay open.. and accessible.
It's just the first time when you open the lock that there appears to be an invisible wall.

Yep... its a new bug from the last updates.

Sounds like you have yet another new bug because it always locks once you go far enough away or reload the save. Enjoy the bug even though it is not that advantageous really.

Not always, I tried Shryce’s suggestion and it worked. The door was still open and I could get everything out. Next time I went back though, it was shut and locked again.

Maybe its a bug... but thats how the game is on my pc.

Have you checked it though ?

Hmm.. its getting weirder then... coz I opened the door weeks ago and emptied it completely... and today its still open when I checked it a while ago today.

Glad you were able to get all the stuff and cabinets I hope...

[Bummenphist]

Yeah, I managed to clean it out, and also at the bandit camp which has the same issue.

[Jay Shen]

I was able to solve this but with glitches. I saved my game at the barrier. Next day i loaded my game but spawned at my base and my truck was still at the old west town. Quit and loaded my save again, spawned with the assets like the buildings and stairs not loaded. So I quit and loaded my game again spawned correctly and I was able to enter the room with no barrier.

I also tested last night. The old west town door needed me to replace the batteries again but the invisible barrier was gone and i was also able to remove the four lockers from inside also. Scott's door no longer had a barrier once i used the crowbar to open it again. However, the locked door at that same camp required batteries and the barrier remained intact. i will attempt this door again tonight and see if anything changes.
