What does this setting do?

With this on, puppets open unlocked doors and follow you inside. Off means a closed door keeps them out. It sounds minor but decides whether buildings work as a retreat — and therefore whether town runs are plannable or pure luck.

Which value suits my server?

Relaxed PvE

Off if puppets are set fast or tough.

Classic PvP

On. Doors as a safe haven would be too strong in PvP.

Hardcore

On.

What to watch out for

No substitute for a lock

Even when off, only a closed door helps. Leave it open and nothing has changed.
