Doesn't anyone in Skyrim know how to close doors!?

Post » Tue Jul 17, 2012 5:57 pm

I have a small pet peeve. I don't like leaving doors open. I have this OCD thing where I will make sure to hit "Use" on every open door before I leave a cell.

Is there a mod that auto closes an unlocked door after it has been open for about 10 seconds?

(Obviously doors/gates that are activated by pull chains shouldn't be touched. Just unlocked doors that the player can normally interact with)

I don't mind it actually (it'd seem odd having magical auto-shutting doors IMO - although I suppose you could argue that they're weighted like fire doors and will slowly shut on their own), although one thing that does bug me is Delphine leaving *that* door open in the inn...sure, she's careful that nobody else watches the first time you go in there, but I've seen NPCs wandering into the room before now, with the secret door wide open!

Well, if auto-closing doors BREAKS IMMERSHUN, then perhaps it would be approached another way:

Upon entering a cell, all unlocked doors get reset to its "closed" state. This implies that while you weren't looking, people closed the doors.

Of course this other approach would be unrealistic in dungeons...
