Title: Incorrect error message
Reproduction Rate: 100%
Blocker? No
Details: When attempting to open door (for which I had a key) when in combat mode, got the message "This door is locked. You will need to find a key to open it. Use the key on the nearby lock to unlock this door."
The message should have been "Cannot open door when in combat mode." or something similar.
After exiting combat mode I was able to open the door.
Steps to Reproduce: Go to location, find key, enter combat mode, try to unlock and open door.

I don't know if this is what you did or not, but if you click on the locked doors, they will always tell you that "This door is locked" message. I don't know if it matters if you are in combat or not.

You always have to click on the keyhole first (to use the key) and then click on the door to open the door.

Again, I'm not positive if it lets you do it while in combat, I just know it's a 2 step process.

If you get a chance, zone out and reset it, then try to click the keyhole while in combat and see if it unlocks it. You should see the unlocking animation and hear the click.

 

You are correct. Tried it again in the recommended sequence and it worked.

HOWEVER, the error message is still wrong, since I had the key. Maybe it should say "Door is locked." if you have the key and don't unlock it first.
