Great ideas. Another one: Helmet/Hat light Recipe: hat or helmet + duct tape + small flashlight. Small beam of light where you look. Has a chance to fall off your head when you run.

My favorite Sandbox setting: rare loot (all) Zombie count: Insane Zombie Lore: Fast Shamblers Toughness and strength: superhuman No Transmission Vision and hearing: Poor Smell: Bloodhound Everything else as the default

I think This is a pretty good lore based reason. A number of residents left and took their guns with them (and they took many of their neighbors guns--'Jeb won't be needin' his shooter no more')

Yes, please release sp first!

Yeah, personally, I can't make heads or tails of the weight system. I would think that they should have the basic formula of (calories consumed - calories burned) + weight = current weight or something like that. It would be kinda weird if you just 'lost' a certain number of calories per time period. You should be more likely to lose weight if you are eating light and working hard and more likely to gain weight if you are eating heavy and slothing around watching tv

Yeah, this makes a lot of sense. Technically, your house is a "professional" house. That is, for example, if you are an electrician, then your house should be an electricians house, no?

It would be great if you were able to create 'family trees', say, via your saved characters index. Like, when creating a character, you could have the option of 'linking' that character to other created characters. The options might be: parent, child, sibling, friend. BUT, there should be no guarantee that any given character is Alive at game start. And, if you encounter a zombified version of a friend or relative, your character should be affected by some serious long lasting and penalizing moodles (especially if they kill one of these 'familiar zombies').

Yeah, my sense is that this is more likely to appear as a mod than as part of the core game. That said, this seems like an excellent request as an add on to the existing defecation mod

I really like the (I understand, possible) plans for inventory. +1 for a sewing skill. Now, I wanna make a sewing, cooking grandma!

Agreed. There should be some reasonable and realistic benefit in the winter months

I like. Something similar: it would be nice to have a pocket system to make cloths more functional. That is, regular pants should slightly increase your carrying capacity in your main inventory, but even dress shirts (I.e. those that have breast pockets) should do the same. Cargo pants would be even better, etc. You should also be able to sew pockets-- even holsters, etc.-- in your cloths to increase carrying capacity.

I really want collapsing roofs under certain conditions (e.g. too much stuff and a lot of rain, or maybe having a ton of zombies on the roof, etc.). Oops, now you have a broken leg and the noise has attracted a nearby horde. Actually, it should be necessary to maintain buildings occasionally, including the roof. The more erosion, the more vulnerable they are to collapsing. Heck, it should be possible to damage property in a way that makes them less stable. This totally needs to happen.

This seems about perfect IMO

I would like to be able to have a mix of shamblers, fast shamblers, sprinters (and, perhaps these runners) and crawlers. That is, I would like to have 4 or 5 different zeds based on speed, and be able to set the percentage of each. For example: Shamblers: 40% Fast Shamblers: 30% Runners: 20% Sprinters: 5% Crawlers: 5% It would be cool to have the same for the other lore settings, so you could always get really unlucky and run onto a group of sprinting, bloodhound, eagle eyed, genius, strong, tough zeds without having to set it so that they are all like that.

I mean, that would be cool. But it would be a heckton of work.

Maybe actually using the skill or ability could also increase retention time. So, if you actually start building a bunch of metal boxes, you get the hang of it for longer.

All perfectly reasonable suggestions imo

I completely agree. The game needs more ways to hurt yourself

My sense is that the trait in the game includes all blood (as you cannot perform first aid on another).

879. Shoes should wear out over time and not all shoes should fit your character. Wearing shoes that don't fit should cause pain and reduce running speed. Going without shoes, on the other hand, should run the risk of damaging your feet.

876. Occasionally, it would be cool to come across a crashed helicopter. 877. Clothing should rip and need to be sewed. 878. You should be able to wrap a sheet around yourself to get some warmth

848. Also, to add to this, it would be nice to have a sandbox option to have some zombies actually get stronger/faster over time. (maybe they're particularly well fed...) 849. You should occasionally spawn with a digital watch. I know that I had a digital watch in the 90's.

...AWESOME!
