Combination Locks work better than Keys, get rid of keys

[DW's Gaming N Animation 70]

Usually when you die your key chain appears in your inventory, but this most recent time the keys disappeared and now I have 6 boxes and they are all locked and no keys anywhere not even by my dead body/tomb stone. I could not find the keys anywhere. That's when I realized how useless keys are and I think we should just focus on creating combination locks for everything like chest, doors, cars, ship anchor, ship helm/wheel.  We should just get rid of keys altogether, its too much of a pain. Another thing about combination locks when you unlock the ships helm the combination lock goes back into your inventory.  That also should not happen, when I unlock the ships helm the combination lock should remain and when I am done with it I can just go back to the helm and lock it without having to go into my inventory to get the combination lock.

Hmmh, about the keys disappeared, I think it's known bug and should be fixed in the future. About preferring one of another, both lock mechanism has their own unique thing, it's depends on how and what you use it on. For example, the keys is way faster to lock things. If you have keys chain on "shortcut bar or toolbar", it's simply just hold your keys chain on your hands and lock things up quickly. It's also easier to make at the beginning stage.

About combination lock that goes back to our inventory, oh well it's combination lock, not "digital lock" that you only need to press buttons. Now that I mentioned digital lock, I think Devs need to make one of those as next advance tech.. 

I think that's part of "civilization advancement", from cave man to paranoiac with lots of keys, then modern civilization with combination locks and then advanced civilization that just need to remember their passwords(maybe).

So I don't think we need to remove keys mechanism. Remember, this is just my opinion.

AS far as I know combo locks don't work on doors and chests. Only ships.  But I could be wrong.

Workstations and boaty parts, seems to be it for combo locks. I do think doors and chests should also have combo locks available, though I still like the ease of use with keys.

If combo worked on doors I would use it. Glitches do happen with keys. Also combo locks are useful in cooperative play.
