On stopped doors and their replacement

When a door is stopped and then the state is saved is it supposed to make the door irreplaceable without paying the full replacement cost?  I was trying to replace my door but couldn't figure out how to do it without incurring a $240 (or whatever doors cost) fee.  Help please.

Yep, pretty much all house objects that are "broken" by tools cost the original price to replace. I think the only exceptions are sleeping dogs and crowbarred push doors (which aren't really broken).

Re: On stopped doors and their replacement

There were some funny threads about this... a pit being so traumatized by a ladder that it simply can't go on.

But the point of "lingering" damage like this, even for things that aren't logically "broken," is so that robbers can chip away at a harder house over time.  I decided to put almost all robber tool effects into this category.

Okay.  That makes sense in a mechanic if not thematic way.  Thanks for the reply.  I'm glad that I wasn't just failing to figure out how to fix my door.  Although with this new knowledge the (newly) very cheep door stops seem like an even better deal now.

Well, they only work when the door is already open, which is why they are cheaper than the crowbar.
