Summary0001691: tdm_lp_pick_timeout lockpicking cvar only works once, and at the wrong moment
DescriptionQuoted with modifications from http://modetwo.net/darkmod/index.php?showtopic=8815&st=25#entry178691 (Springheel):

> From the description, [the tdm_lp_pick_timeout cvar] should set the amount of silence at the end of the pattern. If the player releases "use" during this time, the pin is successfully picked.
>
> That's what it *should* do. But it doesn't. I was getting suspicious, so I cranked it up to 5 seconds to see what happens. It actually adds time right after the first click (and only the first time through the pattern). It does not make it easier to release at the end of the pattern like it should.
>
> The pattern becomes:
>
> "sweet click", "seta tdm_lp_pick_timeout value", "rest of random pattern", followed immediately by "sweet click", "rest of random pattern", "sweet click", "rest of random pattern", repeat.
>
> It should be:
>
> "sweet click" "rest of random pattern" "seta tdm_lp_pick_timeout value", repeat.
>
> I asked Spar to fix that but he hasn't had time, apparently. Once that is done then people can at least try lockpicking the way it is supposed to work. Only then can we have meaningful discussions about whether it is too hard, and start tweaking values, etc.
Steps To ReproduceSet tdm_lp_pick_timeout to a large value, attempt lockpicking, and listen to the click pattern.
