Just sell castrated males. I'm going to hazard a guess that there is insufficient market demand for all your horses. Also geldings are often preferred as they usually have a calmer nature than a mare in heat or a stallion.

It's quite opposite. People are "sad" they can't lockpick gates =)


Locks useful for bigger villages or small group claims.


Also for people questioning why lockpicking chest instead of bashing it? Well, if You lockpick a chest, You foraged / have stolen from somewhere, You can use it now as perfecly fine storage chest, since probably a person having keys to that chest won't access it anymore. ¦]

About locks... It could be fun if devs makes that you cant destroy someone house or chest that locks, so you kinda force ppl to unlock it. Slow. All 24h. lol

Ditto. It was always the needless destruction of an entire base which bothered me about being raided. It should be harder to destroy some kinds of buildings, like the stone mansion and the tower in particular imho. In my mind it should also be easier to steal things as a tradeoff.

Then again it's been a while since I've been raided at all.

24 is the cap. With the skills some have posted, I don't see anything taking that long. Bad lock, good skills, and it'll be instant. It's that "I lock my door as a deterrent, not because it's actual safer."
Opinions expressed in this statement are the authors alone and in no way reflect on the game development values of the actual developers.

I would like that garden shed had locks, increased soak and hitpoints. So I could build them on places that I gather stuff and, still, have a way to store things on the region without needing a palisade to protect it.

Not sure about the hitpoints and whatnot, but will look at the lock.
