[SA] Water Pumps and Wells

[sausagekingofchicago 4711]

I'd love to see water pumps/wells come in various conditions that could be repaired by organized players.  Randomly working pumps would also add an additional level of difficulty.

 

Acquiring the various components to repair the pump would be the first step in any type of potential base building that may come.  Similar to how vehicles were repaired in the mod, water pumps could require a number of parts or maintenance to get/keep them in functioning order.  A repaired pump could also be damaged or destroyed.  

 

There could also be different types of makeshift pumps with various outputs.  An electric pump and a car battery could be one of many potential crafting options.

Good idea but if this happens i'm screwed.

Maybe, you could build them.

But their water levels depend on rainfall.

You'd need a pretty extreme drought to dry up wells like that.

Will we be able to shit in them?

Player made customizations to the map would be the crowning achievement for dayz imo.  I'm almost hoping it never happens because when it does I won't do anything other than play dayz.

Repairing of wells and such is a very good idea, I like it. I'm all for interaction with the land of Chernarus!

Any maps of pump locks around? Need to find one badly... Northeast coast, bigger city that has a hospital. Tons of food... No damn water.

edit:  it's pretty basic right now.  it's missing a lot of details but it's a WIP so it'll get better.  plus, you can register and create your own markers if you need to add anything.

Suppose so.

But, it could definitely be jammed I suppose.

Well, heh, the removal of wells from the actual map and replacing them with wells that one could actually repair wouldn't be that hard in my opinion.

Beat me to it.
