Overview

A Vault Hatch v2 is a hatch that has the ability to be locked by the player. It is upgraded from a Vault Hatch using Forged Steel. A Vault Hatch v2 can be upgraded to a Vault Hatch v3.

Usage

A Vault Hatch v2 offers three security feature options, in relation to the player's control of the Hatch. Holding down the 'E' key, while looking at the Reinforced Secure Wooden Door, will bring up the following three icons:

• Left Icon - This is a keypad icon and is used to set up a password for the Hatch, moving the cursor over the icon and releasing the E key will bring up the password input box. Using the password input box the player can type any password they like and set it by clicking the green set button, or press the red cancel button to exit the menu and cancel the password input. Once the player has set a password they will have to enter it into the Hatch to be able to open it, this only needs to be done the first time the player uses the Hatch. Any player that knows the door code will be able to open this Hatch.
• Center Icon - This is a doorway icon, moving the cursor over this icon and releasing the E key with either open or close the Hatch depending on which state it was in when the player pushed down the E button.
• Right Icon - This is a padlock icon and represents the Hatch lock, moving the cursor over the icon and releasing the E key will toggle the Hatch between being either locked or unlocked. A Hatch that is locked without a password can only be opened by the player that locked it.

Obtaining

The Vault Hatch v2 is not craftable, it can only be obtained by upgrading a Vault Hatch. The upgrade requires 12 Forged Steel and any upgrading tool. {{{nameresult}}}{{{imageresult}}}{{{yield}}}{{{time}}}Vault Hatch1Forged Steel12{{{linkname3}}}{{{itemcount3}}}{{{linkname4}}}{{{itemcount4}}}{{{linkname5}}}{{{itemcount5}}}{{{magazinetype}}}{{{magazinecount}}}{{{magazinequal2}}}{{{magazinequal3}}}{{{magazinequal4}}}{{{magazinequal5}}}{{{LeveledCraft}}}{{{craftmultiplier}}}{{{skill}}}{{{skillmod}}}{{{perkbook}}}{{{schematic}}}{{{workstation}}}{{{implement}}}{{{inventorycraft}}} |style="padding: 7px"| |Item missing!
