Have crates respawn when locked room's door locks again

[tidal bloom]

Basically title. Because sometimes the rooms re-lock but when you unlock it, the crates are still open.

Been running into that issue as well. I agree dude.

Overall, I agree but I think this suggestion should be refined more.

Currently, loots respawn regardless of player presence or door state.

Loot/door should only respawn when:

• There are no players in proximity
• If behind a locked door, respawn together with the door
• Timer starts when the door is first opened, and future interactions don't count
• Containers and loose loot lose their individual respawn functionality if behind a locked door, so they all respawn at once, which is when the door itself respawns

Wouldn't that mean there will be places where loot never respawns?

Because people can't control who's passing through

Player presence would halt the timer, not reset it

[random glen]

Ah I see. I think there are some places (like MS villas/hotel) that almost always have a player there

And if those places don't have a player then it'll likely respawn anyway with the current system

Could also work like the timer doesn't halt but only run in the background, and respawns as the player leaves

It's mainly the frustration of items partially respawning, I've seen a few times where I had to wait 10 minutes after opening a room to see the items spawn

[random glen]

ya i've seen that too

also loose loot is on a separate timer

[halcyon cypress]

hence why the suggestion

[inland spear]

As far as I can tell, the order of respawns is as follows:

1. Random loot
2. Locked doors
3. Safes and containers

Not sure how AI respawns rank on that list

[dusky path]

The point about player proximity can be a bit counterproductive as people visiting in-between respawns would be further punished than they are now. This would delete loooting for scraps (which is where it's at rn).
