Can you make a hatch locked?

I've been trying to lock the hatch in my starting room, but when I check the Locked box, when I start the map it's still unlocked. Making a door and making it smaller and placing in the roof just seems dumb...

If your game loads up from cache files, changes you made might not show up.

Err... not sure what that means... Every changes I make on the rest of the room works just fine, but locking the hatch just don't wanna work.

Cache files can be a real pain, so I would delete them. Don't worry deleting that file isn't going to ruin anything.

If that doesn't work, I wonder if you could make the hatch static?

If you make the hatch static, it will never open. If you want to open the hatch after using a key or something, then you would have to go back and change the physics of the hatch in code, which is one function that I, personally, have not had anything close to success with.

Yeah, as Tanshaydar said, if you just delete your map cache file, it should work. I was just commenting on the added difficulty of trying to make the hatch static, then change it back.

Sometimes you have to save right when you click the "Locked" box and before to switch to a different entity, or it undoes it. :/ Found that out the hard way.

Don't manually delete cache files, make settings like instructed here http://www.frictionalgames.com/forum/thread-4822.html

This goes for all kinds of changes you do to entities, sometimes they just get undone when you deselect the edited entity.
