Making another Master Key for friend

Postby Cheesewheel » Sun May 07, 2017 5:00 am

So my friend finally found my base and I want to make a key for him (to easily get in / out obviously) but I go to Odds & Ends and it's not there. I have Locks and Bolts learned and I've installed locks before. Help please

Strange, I have master key copy listed. Are you sure you installed the lock on this character? If you installed it on another you'd need to do it again. Can always install it on a roundpole fence gate to test.

Side note: carrying master keys is dangerous. If someone mugs you or your buddy, they can change the locks on you. It can screw you over big time if you can't build a wrecking ball. If you have your friend living with you, they should only hearth in and slave key out.

You need to know master keys, installing locks that are tuned to a key (so they do not spawn one when installing) dosn't count.

But you can't attune a lock without having a master key to do it with. Which is why the only situation I can imagine is a multi character shenanigan.

I did that and it worked I've installed locks (before I claimed my walls) on gates that decayed but it works so thanks!
