Tired of picking a challenging lock for half an hour only to find generic trash inside? Dynamic Locks balances the scales by rewarding you for cracking high-tier vaults while completely cutting out the time waste on low-value chests. It dynamically reduces a lock's combination complexity based on the combined market value of the items inside stacked with your current lockpicking expertise.
Main Features:
- Loot-Based Difficulty Scaling: The lower the total value of the items hidden inside a chest, the easier and shorter the locking sequence becomes. High-value unique loot retains its full vanilla challenge.
- Skill-Based Mastery: Your formal lockpicking training tier (Untrained, Skilled, Master) adds additive bonuses layout to clear out even more tedious turn combinations.
- Unsolvable Lock Protection: Built-in engine safety mechanisms guarantee that removing sequence segments will never accidentally break the minigame or render a lock unsolvable.
- Highly Configurable: All value thresholds, skill-tier modifier constants, and safety margins can be easily tuned by hand inside the main.lua source file.
Structural Mechanics (Default Ruleset):
- The moment you interact with a locked container, the mod calculates the total internal item values and applies difficulty cuts.
Loot Value Threshold Reductions:
- Total Value under 50 ore ➔ Removes 4 turn connections.
- Total Value under 100 ore ➔ Removes 3 turn connections.
- Total Value under 200 ore ➔ Removes 2 turn connections.
- Total Value under 700 ore ➔ Removes 1 turn connection.
- Total Value 700+ ore ➔ Removes 0 turn connections (Full vanilla puzzle scaling).
Lockpicking Skill Tier Modifiers:
- Untrained ➔ Removes 1 additional connection.
- Skilled ➔ Removes 2 additional connections.
- Master ➔ Removes 3 additional connections.
Example Scenario: If you are a Skilled lockpicker (removes 2 steps) opening a common chest holding 85 ore worth of total loot (removes 3 steps), the script attempts to remove 5 total directional inputs from the puzzle matrix, making it incredibly brief and simple to clear.
