Unlock

Usage

unlock <direction>
unlock <container>
Example: unlock north

Unlocks a door or a container, if you are carrying its key. For a door, use the direction it stands in (unlock north); containers are unlocked by name (unlock strongbox).

An unlocked door is not an open one - open it afterwards. Nothing in the game locks anything again, so a key is spent the moment it is used, in the sense that matters: the door stays open to everybody.

Good to know

• Refused while you are fighting, a ghost, sleeping, resting or sitting.
