📘 Description of the addon Gmod Lock and Key System + Door Manager

Gmod Lock and Key System + Door Manager, brings a new game mechanic to your Garry's Mod server, it allows you to install various locks on all the doors of your map without spawning any additional elements to make the locks work, the door itself is enough. The lock animations and door handle animations are 100% client-side.

With its various options and its numerous keys that the system imports and its inventory you will be able to bring a new Roleplay and realistic touch to your Gmod server gameplay. Organize Escape Game. Organize a survival horror RP scene, for example to progress in an adventure you must find keys to evolve in your scenario. Restrict areas according to the job with job locks for example.

You want RP scripts? There is no more RP than this one, there is no world with so many open doors and no lock, this script can create this environment that is so missing in Gmod. It makes sense for a merchant to lock his store when he leaves or before he logs out.

Forget about zone restrictions in an office if you can just lock the door, it will look more realistic and your server will be less burdened by zone restrictions that work by constant checking of each zone, plus the door is already there.

This key system will allow you to restrict zones by their own door if there are doors on your map. Because the system exploits in first the doors already present on the maps of Gmod.

In addition to providing different types of keys and locks the system is equipped with 3 special locks that allows you to restrict access to the opening or closing of a lock by its rank vip with the VIP key, or for example its steamid64 with the id64 key. The same goes for job and job category locks. More details below on this subject.

A lock can be opened and closed it is permanent and its state is saved even after a reboot.

This script is tagged as Standalone because it also has a key inventory included. This allows this script to work without depending on any other addon as a whole or any gamemode.


🔒 The different special locks with their keys

Among the current 33 keys, there are 4 special keys, which means that there are as many special locks.

1. The SteamID64 Key: will only work on doors reserved for a steamid64. For example when you install an id64 lock a steamid64 will be required. This means that only the one who has the steamid64 key will be able to open this lock if the steamid64 matches the one in his steam account.

2. Job Key: allows you to open Job locks that have an assigned job equal to the owner of the key. For example the Mayor's office has a door with a Job lock = Mayor, so the player who is Mayor and uses the Job key to be able to open the lock.

3. Job Category Key: Allows you to open all doors assigned to a job category. For example, the police station can be closed to the public who are not staff members. Only users who have a job included in the job category assigned to the lock will be able to open that door with this key, useful for zone blocking according to hierarchies without needing to use a zone restriction system that runs on loops and consumes a lot of server CPU. Besides using keys is more realistic than being teleported outside a restricted area.

4. VIP Key: Allows those who have the VIP key + the VIP rank to open the VIP locks. A user who has the VIP key but not the rank will not be able to open the VIP lock.
