Bugged bashable doors

Post by Fava Beans » Fri May 06, 2022 9:35 pm

Description
==========
There are some doors on area transitions that are locked and bashable, if the door on one side is bashed and not the other, the door that was bashed will quickly respawn and be impossible to target or damage in any way, forcing the next player through to pick the lock or wait until next reset to bash it for access.

two areas i know of have this issue currently. The Cloaker spiral door in the lower dark the transition connecting the area: Underdark (Lower) Caverns of the Lowerdark, to the area: Underdark (Middle) Cloaker Spiral (Root).

The other area that has this issue is the area: Underdark (Middle) Temple of the Noisome God (Lower), to the area: Underdark (middle) Grimlock Lair. this one being particularly frustrating, as it prevents anyone without lockpicking skill to even leave the dungeon, forcing players to go back through the dungeon to leave, instead of taking the exit door.

Steps to reproduce
----------------------------
destroy one of these doors then have someone pass through the transition, the door will them respawn immediately and be impossible to destroy again.

Expected result
-----------------------
Bashed doors able to be bashed as many times as necessary.

Actual result
-------------------
The door becomes indestructible preventing any other player from bashing it to gain access to its area transition until reset.

Screenshot(s)
--------------------
First image, showing the 'interior' immortal door cannot be damaged, and only targetable by non-melee attacks
Image

Second image, showing the 'exterior' door on the other side of the transition taking damage as normal
Image

Third image, showing that after bashing the 'exterior' door, the 'interior' door also gets destroyed
Image

Misc Notes
----------------
When one side it bashed it appears that the door still existing on the other side is the cause of this issue, bashing both sides of the area transition will properly break the door and the immortal copy.

Which Server(s)?
------------------------
Underdark
