Multiplayer Flare guns and Signalling

It would be awesome if we had different colours of flare guns (red- green-  maybe yellow that kinda) to pinpoint our location to our friends to group up, or just give a certain kind of signal and to use as a light source for a few minutes (10-20 in game minutes maybe?) , they could shimmer on the relevant 4 edges of the screen in certain colours to show where they are originating from or a simple icon on top of players head similar to foraging. Or at least have a few throwable flares to light up the night at urgent moments. And maybe invite some shamblers for dinner...

 

Also why cant we use car batteries as a makeshift source for player hand-made lamps on pillars? I would love an option like this instead of batteries that last 5a few hours

I have a feeling this is on the way. the dev blog mentioned they were adding off screen events indicated by sound and icon.  the example they gave was helicopter crash. 
It would make sense for this to be one of them. also column of smoke for a signal fire or distant burning building. 

 

it could help with locating players in multiplayer too.
