Cans on a string!

Recommended Posts

I believe introducing the ability to craft a "Can Alarm Tripwire" would be fantastic.

 

Made from keeping empty cans, sticks (outside) ductape (inside),  and fishing line (whatever is used for the fishing rod ingame). When a player eats a whole can of food they can have the option to either keep can or discard. If discarded the can disappears like usual, if kept, it stays in the inventory. When crafted they can take up 4 or 6 slots.

 

Crafting : 4 cans (2 each end), 1 bundle of stick (for stakes if outside) / Ductape (tape to door frames if inside), and  fishing line. 

 

This would be fantastic if you are held up in a house (cooking or keeping warm), on a hill providing overwatch for your group raiding a town and not wanting to be snuck up on, or wanting to be alerted if someone has entered a vital building (police station) and you want to jump them on the way out.

 

If players are observant and the discover them they can deactivate them and put them in their inventory.

 

Give me your :beans: and hope this can be done! :D

Sorry mate, I haven't played that one. I thought since its in The walking dead it only makes sense for it to be in a Zombie game. :D
