Hatch auto-close Timer

Set an auto-close timer (reasonable amount of time maybe 3 mins) to the hatch so that the killer cannot take the game hostage on end-game. (Bonus option: Timer can start if the killer is camping the hatch within 16 meters.)

    Actually not a bad idea, I think the timer does not need to increase or decrease. It could just be a flat 2-3 mins or so, but I see no reason why this should not be added. Even though I have only had a killer do this to me 1 time.

    Yup! Basically the equivalent of survivors tea bagging but actually toxic and time consuming. I remember a wraith trying this on me. I finished the last gen and left via exit gate, he's probably still standing there lmao.

    But he is not holding the game hostage? You can just do the gens if you prefer that, also depending on the map size and position of the gates you might get a free escape if he closes the hatch because they are too far apart to patrol... I don't really see the need for this feature so...

    Most timers that exist to prevent holding the game hostage are at 4 minutes. I think this would be fairer as it still allows survivors the option to get gens done instead of being pressured to find the hatch. But overall a good idea.
