Hi, I was playing DayZ yesterday and while I was sitting in the woods eating some beanz I was also dropping the tin cans from the new update. So i thought, what if you were running along and you found a camp that wasn't yours and you stumbled across some cans and shit. I think that you could inspect them and see how old they are based on how dirty they are or if they are still warm from heating them over a fire. I don't know i just thought about this and figured someone could expand on this more then I have. I think it would be cool to find trash at a camp and see if anyone has been there recently or something.

Also, most of you are familiar with the church bells that ring on occasion I thought that maybe a player could ring them to signal for help or lure bambis in. :P ( like in the walking dead when they were looking for someone, not gonna mention names for spoiler reasons, and they found that church) Or if there is a spot light somewhere you could power it up and use it for an SOS. I think that would be cool

Feel free to expand or post your ideas :)

I love being able to visualise you eating your beans and walking around seeing trash :)

Now the only thing I could see working is the heat from the fire, can't really have a pop-up message saying "These beans were eaten 30 minutes ago."

If you were near a fire that has been dead for a little while, your temperature symbol could glow, but not raise, signally it's only been dead for say, 10 minutes..
