Password Protected Storage
Tired of your friends stealing your loot? Introducing Password Protected Storage for multiplayer & dedicated servers!Password Protected Storage
Tired of your friends “borrowing” your loot? Personal chest not enough? Want a stash only the people with the password can open?
This mod turns existing chests you list in the config into password-locked storage. No new furniture. No fancy asset pack. Just locks.
⚠️ Important
- Do not use with Guild Structures — that mod already includes password storage. Use one, not both.
- Does nothing until you add prefabs in the CFG. Empty lists = zero effect.
- Does not add new storage. You pick existing prefab names (e.g.
piece_chest_wood).
Optional tip: use WackyDatabase to clone a chest, then list only the clone — so normal chests stay normal and only your “vault” clones get passwords.
Features
- SHIFT+E — owner sets / changes / removes password (empty = remove)
- E — owner always opens; others enter the password once
- Grants stick on the piece (survive reconnect & server restart)
- While passworded: only the owner can de-hammer
- Hover shows Owner / Permitted (light green labels)
- Clear center messages (set / wrong password / access granted / remove denied)
- Dedicated + Steam listen-host friendly
- Prefab lists server-synced
- CFG live reload on host/server (edit + save, no restart)
- Optional World Edit Commands — readable

CFG Guide
File: BepInEx/config/com.rdmods.passwordprotectedstorage.cfg
| Setting | What it does |
|---|---|
| Enabled | Master on/off |
| Debug Logging | Extra log spam while testing — leave off normally |
| Lock Configuration | Clients can’t override server settings (keep on) |
| Exact Names | Exact prefab names, comma-separated — e.g. piece_chest_wood |
| Name Contains | Match any prefab with that word — e.g. chest |
Prefab lists are server-synced. On a dedicated/listen host, edit + save the CFG and it reloads live — no restart needed.
Don’t know a prefab name? Place one, check the log, or start with a known name like piece_chest_wood.
