Simple question with the confirmation of mounts such as the armored spider...
Will UGC authors be able to disable mounts from being used in UGC content?

Players are free to choose to do anything the game allows
EDIT:
The reason I say it is not a modding tool but a Story editor.
So let the drow-sy wousey with their kitties and wolfies and furry leg crawlies have fun even if you hate it, and nobody will subsequently try to disable YOUR companions even if they hate some kind of [insert biased against type here.]
What is wrong with trying to create a certain atmosphere in your story? I would certainly hope that mounts are disabled in some locations. Game would lose some immersion and fun for me if I saw someone riding a horse in what was supposed to be a small twisty cave.
Even a spider mount?

Well when I find a place wide enough to get around the spider I will go and find where it scraped you off on a stalagtite.:)
Actually a spider mount in a cave, provided it is big enough, seems appropriate to me.
And what is wrong with elephant in the room?
They cannot enforce opinions of others to others. It is your opinion and what is fine to you - it cannot be basis for what you think is RP to be correct RP.
In short, you do your stuff, let others do others. Respecting freedom of others is first rule of good RP.
Correct, which is why if a designer of a quest wants no mounts you should repect that opinion.
You are free to play your PC as you like - do not use mounts when in your instance with your party.
How can you call forcing others to not mount as opinion? Seems clearly "forced RP" to me. And I a against 'forced RP' as much as I am against 'forced PvP'.
When doing your own foundry instances, find a party of people who play like you and do quests with them. Why bothers others not in your party?
Personally I hope a few creators create situations where even the oder your party is marching in is important.
Going to avoid the whole RP thing.
Vast Underground Caverns should allow mounts, as should underground city "exteriors"
All interiors (in the context of shops, houses, inns, etc) should disallow mounts. But like I said, it should be the game rules that dictate when and where mounts are disabled, not the foundry author.
Unless the Foundry grants authors the ability to create persistant worlds, in which case the author should be able to set the rules. That could use its own thread for discussion, though.
but I play one on the forums...
:P
Then you misunderstand foundry. You create missions - that is the function of foundry. You do not and cannot create rules.
All you do is design campaign like go there, kill it, get loot, talk and leave.
That is the function of foundry. Rest whatever extra is done, is imagination of authors and not what foundry is designed to do.
Because some of the replied were a mix of good info and what I stated above, the removed posts now are serving a life sentence in the Lower Depths. Responses to this notice will be removed, please contact us via PM to discuss or complain.
Thank you,

If Cryptic allows mods that can allow or disallow what a player has in posession, then we'll bring this discussion up again with me. I'll abstain from future personal comments on the thread most likely.
For now professionally, we will tolerate the discussion, but repeated insults will not only have the thread locked, if done deliberately by the supporters and/or detractors of this topic (no derailing to close it) it MAY cause review for infractions depending on the offenses. You all are now informally warned.
Umm.... actually you can
But if mounts are allowed inside or not - you can't decide. And in such passages you cannot have fights and encounter as they need space.
Besides player will simply mount outside of that area.
EDIT:
If it is similar to STO foundry
You absolutely can.
As for the rest of the details...I think you should get your hands on it before you assume it can't do anything.
You may be surprised.
Edit: I see gillrmn, answered again with how that would work, or function.
So a larger character will have to crouch or crawl through the corridor?
Will i be able to put conditional events ie if a party fails at A event F happens, it a party fails at B event G happens, If party fails at C event H happens. If the party fails in part A but succeeds with event F they continue with the adventure. If the party fails at B and fails the event G event X happens.
