Latest file for Various v1.19.x:
AutoClose-v1.1.1.zip 1-click install


[Discord] [Patreon][Buy Me A Coffee][Ko-fi]

After opening doors, they automatically close after a while.

Only doors and gates that are implemented through BlockBehaviorDoor and BEBehaviorDoor are supported, I tried really hard to add support for fence gates, trapdoors and everyting else, but no luck.

Hold Ctrl key to prevent auto closing.

Trapdoors don't auto close.

Fence gates don't auto close.

Iron doors don't auto close.

Configuration file is located in VintagestoryData/ModConfig, it is appeared after loading any world.

It's okay, the mod is good despite it not being possible, hope u have a nice day!

💬 DanaCraluminumAuthor, Mar 14th at 11:39 AM

Shade_Guye I have no idea how to add such options

💬 Shade_Guye, Mar 13th at 11:44 PM

Very inconvenient, I breeze through my base a lot, wish there were options

💬 DanaCraluminumAuthor, Mar 12th at 11:00 AM

Shade_Guye Open it with Ctrl then

💬 Shade_Guye, Mar 12th at 10:57 AM

Honestly a dealbreaker, a door I need closed in a state keeps opening when it tries to "close" every time I actually close it 

💬 DanaCraluminumAuthor, Mar 11th at 7:41 PM

Shade_Guye It is absolutely not technically possible to do that

💬 Shade_Guye, Mar 11th at 6:47 PM

In the image, the door is in a "closed" state and I can't get it to be closed in the correct direction, without it opening the wrong way (it opens in a way that it blocks my way, instead of opening towards the cobblestone blocks)

💬 DanaCraluminumAuthor, Mar 11th at 2:51 PM

Shade_Guye This isn't technically possible to make it configurable. No idea what do you mean by closing in one direction

💬 Shade_Guye, Mar 11th at 1:39 PM

The mod is useful, though as mentioned previously some key prevents it from closing, would be nice if that was configurable.
Also a very annoying thing is that the doors only close in one direction, the hinge is always on one side and it's possible to place it in a way you want to keep it, but it closes. (see pic https://imgur.com/a/3zhSms5)
A fix could be that however you place the door, that will be the closed state, instead of whichever state the game assumes the door to be in that "angle" for lack of a better term.

Goatslaw No idea how to implement it properly

💬 Goatslaw, Mar 4th at 12:05 AM

DanaCraluminum I'm not sure I follow what youre saying about them alternating. I was talking about a toggle.
It makes more sense to want to run through a door and have it autoclose, at least imh. I often have shift/run held when i click doors or running from something. so it never autocloses 

💬 DanaCraluminumAuthor, Mar 3rd at 10:25 AM

Goatslaw I won't make it configurable or change it to Shift, then to Ctrl, then to Shift, then again to Ctrl.

Also I totally prefer using Ctrl for this

💬 Goatslaw, Mar 3rd at 2:43 AM

holding shift (or run as I've set it) while opening a door prevents auto close instead of ctrl, or crouch.
Is this because I've switched controls for crouch and sprint? And does that mean running is supposed to prevent auto close? I'd rather it be set for crouch.

💬 DanaCraluminumAuthor, Feb 29th at 7:42 PM

Khana They shouldn't hold Ctrl when opening them, holding Ctrl prevents auto closing

💬 Khana, Feb 29th at 11:38 AM

people keep leavin the doors open on my server, how do i make it so there is no overide to turn it off and they SHUT

You are the best.  Thanks DanaCraluminum

💬 JACO1989, Feb 10th at 2:40 PM

on older versions the mod works on newer game updates...

💬 DanaCraluminumAuthor, Feb 10th at 8:48 AM

DrBubba Updated

💬 DanaCraluminumAuthor, Feb 10th at 8:27 AM

DrBubba Yes

💬 DrBubba, Feb 9th at 11:24 PM

Heya, boss.

In the last iteration before v1.19 or perhaps another version of this mod, I am pretty sure there was a way to ctrl-click the doors to keep them open.  Is that possible to add back in?

💬 DrBubba, Feb 2nd at 7:17 PM

You did and clearly I'm blind.  Weird that trap doors autoclose without the mod but not with, though.  That's one for the big brains to figure out!  Thanks, DanaCraluminum

💬 DanaCraluminumAuthor, Feb 2nd at 7:52 AM

DrBubba I explained it in detail in the description

💬 DrBubba, Feb 2nd at 12:43 AM

DanaCraluminum

Weirdly, I've noticed that trapdoors don't autoclose now (they autoclosed before this mod, strangely enough) and iron doors don't auto-close.

💬 DrBubba, Feb 1st at 7:51 PM

Bless you.

💬 QuakingDoom, Jun 19th 2023 at 3:45 PM

Any plans on updating this soon? Nothing else like it for 1.18 :(

💬 mohmaniac, May 6th 2023 at 8:46 PM

Craluminum Thanks for your feedback, take your time. Hope you feel a little better every day!

💬 DanaCraluminumAuthor, May 6th 2023 at 3:09 PM

mohmaniac I'm taking a break at the moment, I don't know how much time it will take

💬 mohmaniac, May 6th 2023 at 3:05 PM

Hi! I really love this mod - a real QoL increase. Thank you!

Will there be 1.18 support?

💬 OpPointBaker, Mar 8th 2023 at 1:28 PM

Shweeet! Thank You!

💬 DanaCraluminumAuthor, Mar 7th 2023 at 10:25 PM

OpPointBaker I'm working on update for 1.18

💬 OpPointBaker, Mar 7th 2023 at 10:12 PM

Does not currently seem to work with the new doors in 1.18. [pre3 is the version I'm on at the moment]

💬 Pervy_Sage, Jan 14th 2023 at 7:39 PM

sharptile Actually having alt would be better. Now it's bound to ctrl so you can't sprint through a door as you are opening it because it thinks you want to keep it open. Shift would be much better even if it interfers with carry on/pick up & carry mods.

💬 sharptile, Oct 27th 2022 at 11:07 PM

is there or will there be an option to rebind the controls?

i personally find it annoying using shift as a ''dont autoclose'' and would like to rebind it to a different key

💬 DanaCraluminumAuthor, Oct 1st 2022 at 9:02 PM

Mendall

I originally made it as replacer of Blacksmiths mod and floor plates

💬 Mendall, Oct 1st 2022 at 9:00 PM

thnks for the answer back. and YES! exactly what I needed. Thnk you so much. I used to use the floor plates from Medieval expansion.

but that mod has been giveing me truble of late. Then I tried the springs from Blacksmiths.

But they only work on doors and I need gates far more, as I'm always leaving the garden gate open for the rabbits.

Also that mod adds so much stuff I dont need and never use this is much better.

 

💬 Mendall, Oct 1st 2022 at 8:40 PM
💬 DanaCraluminumAuthor, Sep 22nd 2022 at 9:05 AM

Mendall

Yes, it also closes any gates and trapdoors

💬 Mendall, Sep 22nd 2022 at 1:33 AM

does this close gates as well or just doors?

 

💬 DanaCraluminumAuthor, Sep 14th 2022 at 6:20 AM

iby

Thank you

💬 iby, Sep 14th 2022 at 1:37 AM

Your mods are great man. It's always some super useful QOL, something to 'complete' the game with more options, or some neat additions like more liquid containers or more ruin variants. You are awesome, thank you for the incredible mods.

💬 DanaCraluminumAuthor, Sep 9th 2022 at 9:05 PM

If anyone wants springs like in Blacksmiths, but compatible with every mod (without adding any new blocks), write about that in comments here and I will add them someday
