Question about guards and open doors

[Oldjim]

Out of interest really as if a door is left slightly ajar so that you can peek through it the guard doesn't seem to notice

Is the degree of opening versus the guard seeing it variable or a fixed amount

The other thing is that if the guard is closing a door and you interrupt the movement he doesn't seem to notice. Is this something which could be fixed as it can make it very easy to get through locked doors

I'm pretty sure it's on the bugtracker already.

#3523 - covers stopping a swinging door.

 

Doors can open up to 1/5th of their overall swing w/o AI noticing. After 4-6 seconds, AI will react to a suspicious door being open.

 

This gives the player the ability to peek through slightly opened doors.

Thanks for the quick answers

Just out of curiousity - if the AI notices a door is open, does this cause a hit to your stealth score (and if so, what weighting)?

Uh, is this diabled on Easy? Because I don't really ever get that.

Note designers designate a door as suspicious/should be closed, it's not every one.
