Title: would like locks how to
Post by: Josh on September 10, 2011, 04:33:28 am: I was told a couple of things about locks but there is still much I don't know.
I have been lead to believe that locks could only work on open lockers, footlockers, wallbanks, etc... but whenever I try it says that does nothing.
Advice?

Yes, a normal lockpad should work when you "use" it on one of those containers. If not it's a bug, because it works for ALL of those containers. Even in towns.

Well... If I'm right I think you need to open it THEN use the lock on it.

But other then that no, it should work fine.

Click and hold on open locker, bring up menu, scroll down to backpack to open up your inventory.

Click on lock.

Don't put the key inside.
