Mechanical Dial Lock

This mod introduces functional safes with old-school mechanical dial locks. It's designed as a framework mod, allowing other creators to expand it by creating addons with new safe designs.

For Build 41:

To build the safes included in this mod, you'll need the Building Menu mod. This mod is required to access and build safes in your game. Note: Without the Building Menu mod, will not have access to the safes!

For Build 42:

Safes are integrated into the vanilla Build Menu, no additional mods required.

Unlock Requirements:

  • Large Safes: Learned automatically at Metalworking Level 8.
  • Small Safes: Learned automatically at Metalworking Level 6.

Features:

1. Animated Sprites: The safes visually change to indicate their status (open/closed). 2. User-Friendly Interface: Clear, step-by-step instructions for the mechanical lock make it easy to use.
