Stopping NPCs from opening doors / locking doors
My first goat stable had a door. But the NPCs kept opening the door. The goats were constantly running out of the stalbe.
So since then I only build walls without doors. Being able to lock doors for NPCs would be really nice

Andrés Felipe MergedWhen Pjs patrol they open the doors all time and go where ever they want, they also get in the way when someone creates in that path. I suggest to reduce to 5M they patrol and use a Keyboard shortcut like F for example to open and close the doors so they dont open closed doors.

Skyward MergedNPC's that roam often do so in areas that we as designers don't want them to roam. Allowing us to lock doors would prevent this from happening. Thank you.

Eddie MergedSetting/lock option to prevent NPC going through doors. When they walk out of my base they end up so far from the area they are needed. Having them not move works but it takes away from the atmosphere.

Momo MergedMy boyfriend figured out a way to have our house in the sky but with all the NPCs in our base they keep opening the doors and the cats and dogs end up falling out so we have to collect them again if we want them back. Please make it to where the NPCs don't open the doors and the pets to just stay in the house somehow please???
