HydeCo. Automatic Garage Doors!

Open, close, and hack garage doors with a programmable remote. Keybinds, context menus, per‑item HUD, a Garage Manager, and a Bulls & Cows keypad mini‑game.

---

• Remote‑controlled doors — Open/close any paired garage door from a distance. Supports multi‑tile garage groups.
  
• Programmable pairing — Link doors to a device, unpair, or reassign on the fly; pairing requires being near the target (proximity rules apply).
  
• Bulls & Cows hacking mini‑game — Crack 4‑digit keypad codes with logic and deduction; keypad UI shows attempts, bulls/cows feedback, discovered digits, and lockout chance.
  
• Keybinds + context menu + vehicle radial — Use hotkeys, right‑click menus, or vehicle radial slices; bind remotes to hotkey slots.
  
• Multi‑slot remotes — Assign remotes to Slot 1/2/3 and toggle/lock/unlock per slot via keybinds.
  
• Per‑item Remote HUD — Compact/expanded HUD for any remote (battery %, paired code, garage name, Toggle/Lock/Unlock/Pair). Windows are item‑bound, movable, and remember layout.
  
• Garage Manager UI — View/manage garages: rename, reorder (drag & drop), add nearby entries, set frequency (after discovery), and see distance/lockout/status.
  
• Battery & salvage mechanics — Insert/remove batteries from inventory; battery % is shown on the item/HUD. Disassemble remotes into salvaged components.
  
• Sandbox options — Fine‑tune range, pairing distance, keypad behavior, battery drain, manager availability, and more (full list below).
  
• Compatibility & safety — Singleplayer supported; works with most building/vehicle mods. If another mod replaces garage door behavior, load order may matter. Generally safe to add to existing saves; back up important worlds.

• Get a Remote — Find in garages/sheds/electronics loot or craft one (if crafting enabled). Remotes display battery % in inventory.
  
• Insert a Battery — Use the inventory context menu to insert/remove batteries; charge is preserved and displayed.
  
• Pair to a Door — Stand near a garage door → Right‑click the remote → Pair with HydeCo Remote (or use the HUD/Manager). Pairing uses a stable UID so large multi‑tile doors behave consistently.
  
• Hack Locked Doors (optional) — Play the 4‑digit Bulls & Cows puzzle:
  • Bulls = correct digit, correct spot
  • Cows = correct digit, wrong spot
  The keypad UI shows recent attempts, bulls/cows hints, discovered slots, and lockout chance after configured attempts.
  
• Operate — Use keybinds, context menu, vehicle radial, or the HUD to open/close, lock, or unlock paired doors from range.
  
• Manage Garages — Open the Garage Manager (inventory context or keybind) to rename, reorder, add nearby, set discovered frequency, and inspect lockout/coords info.

• Bind keys in Options → Key Bindings → HydeCo Automatic Garage Doors.
  
• Common actions: Toggle paired door, Open, Close, Lock, Unlock, Toggle Remote HUD, Open Garage Manager.
  
• Three hotkey slots: assign remotes to Slot 1/2/3 and operate that remote directly via slot keys.
  
• Right‑click a remote in inventory for: Open HUD, Manage Garages, Pair (enter code), Unpair, Insert/Remove Battery, Bind to slot, Rename.
  
• Vehicle radial integration: quick remote actions when in/near a vehicle and carrying a remote.

• RemoteRange — how far remotes can operate (tiles)
  
• PairMaxDistance — max distance to pair a door (tiles)
  
• GroupSearchRadius — search radius for garage pieces when pairing/discovering
  
• BatteryDrainToggle — battery cost per toggle
  
• BatteryDrainWrongCode — battery drain for wrong keypad attempts
  
• AllowRemoteThroughLocked — allow temporary unlock/relock when operating locked doors
  
• KeypadAttemptsShown — cap how many attempts are shown in UIs
  
• KeypadHints — enable/disable bulls/cows + discovered digits
  
• GarageManagerEnabled — enable/disable the Garage Manager UI
  
• HackKeypadElectricityLevel — Electrical level required for hacking
  
• HackKeypadHackingLevel — Hacking level required (HackingSkill integration)
  
• KeypadLockoutBaseAttempts — attempts before lockout chance begins

• Singleplayer supported.
  
• Works with most building/vehicle mods; if another mod overrides garage doors, adjust load order.
  
• Generally safe to add to existing saves, but back up important worlds.
  
• Optional integration: HackingSkill mod; Electrician/Burglar professions and Electrical skill gates can affect keypad hacking.

Q: How far can I operate doors?
A: Typically driveway length — controlled by the RemoteRange sandbox option. Pairing requires being closer (PairMaxDistance).

Q: Can I re‑pair a door to a different remote?
A: Yes. Unpair, then pair again from the context menu, Remote HUD, or keypad UI.

Q: What’s the Bulls & Cows mini‑game?
A: A 4‑digit logic puzzle. Each guess returns Bulls (right digit, right place) and Cows (right digit, wrong place). Use the keypad’s attempts list and hints to deduce the code.

Q: How do batteries work?
A: Remotes store battery percent (0–100). Insert/remove via inventory context. Battery drains on use and (optionally) on wrong keypad attempts.

Q: What is the Garage Manager?
A: A UI to view/manage known garages: rename, reorder, add nearby entries, set a discovered frequency, and see lockout/proximity info (can be disabled in Sandbox options).

• Gate Automation is priority
  
• Custom icons, models, and textures
  
• v1, v2, v3 style remotes with more range and features
  
• shared/networked behavior (multiplayer considerations)
