Generators

Recommended Posts

Gasoline (jerry can) powered generators would allow electric lighting in buildings and built up areas.

Cables could be a loot item to connect the generator to lights etc.

Players might connect to street lights, spot lights, portable light sources and even internal lights in buildings. Elevators/lifts?

You *could* make light bulbs a loot item. Bulbs could blow after a random amount of time or when smashed. Lights and the sound of the generator might attract zombies.

Generators could also be used to power other facilities such as radio stations (http://dayzmod.com/forum/showthread.php?tid=25361&highlight=radio+stations). They could be connected to barbed wire to keep zombies at bay.
