how do i take notes out of envelopes?
it used to be easy and obvious, but now when i go to the "empty envelope" option i get the list of notes and all i can do is view them, i have no option to take them out of the envelope, to copy etc....

2
how do i cancel a lock breaking project?
i used to be able to just hit the 'x' to cancel projects. but now it won't let me. i just get this
"ERROR: You can not cancel this project.= "

some changes happened over the past few weeks and these functions are having issues... i at least just noticed now. haven't tried cancelling lockbreaking projects since the spring and taking letters out of notes... maybe been at least a month.

1. There should be a "Take notes" rectangle button on the top of the screen. When you click on it, the select boxes left to each note appear.

2. This has issues since cancel of projects was implemented, please send me the details on a pm to remove it.

Did you check if the project is at least a year old?

Lockpicking is done using a crowbar. It can be started from outside or inside a locked room or vehicle, or by trying to unlock a container without having the correct key. The project takes 1 day and may succeed, in which case the lock is destroyed, or fail, in which case nothing happens. Everyone on either side of the locked door hears the initiation of the lockpicking project.
An abandoned lockpicking project can be canceled once it has become a year old.
