Features

Random Door Knocks

Hear knocking on nearby doors, even when no one is around.

Doors May Open By Themselves

Sometimes the knock is just a warning. Sometimes the door swings open.

Day and Night Cycles

Activity increases at night and in dark places. Hide during the day... if you can.

Multiplayer Support

Works on servers. Everyone will hear the knocks. Everyone will be afraid.

Fully Configurable

Adjust timing, distance, and chance through config file. Make it as rare or frequent as you want.

Double Door Support

Works perfectly with connected double doors. Both doors may open together.
