Description

This export is used to trigger the lockpicking process on an MLO door handled by nolag_properties.

It should be called when a player uses a lockpick item (for example, inside your inventory system or usable item callback). Once executed, the system will:

  • Check if the player is near a valid MLO property door

  • Verify that the door is currently locked

  • Start the configured lockpicking logic (minigame / progress system depending on your setup)

If all conditions are met, the lockpicking process will begin. If the player is not targeting a valid MLO door, the export will return false and no action will be triggered.

This export is required when integrating custom inventory systems, item usage handlers, or third-party frameworks where you want to manually control when lockpicking is initiated.
