Nav Locker Tool
Navlocks is the thing that allows your zombies to become "aware" of doors or areas they can't pass which would otherwise have a navmesh they could. It allows permanent locking of navmeshes to prevent them from going certain areas without deleting parts of a navmesh that might be used in another gamemode, or they can be linked to doors only preventing zombies from passing if that door's link is not open. The tool requires Advanced Mode to appear in the tool list. It does not come with any options.
