Gothic Remake vs Classic Gothic Lockpicking

Classic Gothic lockpicking is usually described as a left-right sequence. Players try directions in order and learn the correct sequence through feedback.

Gothic 1 Remake changes the search problem. The puzzle is visual: plates, pins, holes, and links between rows matter. Moving one plate can move another plate with it or against it.

That is why a Remake lockpick solver needs a lock-face editor and a path search algorithm. A table of classic left-right strings cannot solve a linked plate puzzle.

When using any online tool, make sure it says which Gothic version it targets. Mixing classic and Remake mechanics is the fastest way to get a useless answer.
