camel packs/ working soda machines

[Roostacake 5]

I know it would make the canteen useless but a camel pack that can be filled with water and hot keyed would be nifty.  it would either replace or add to certain backpacks. It's a common item in the military and for hikers.

Working soda machines that either need a coin to activate or just an animation. I mean they are already in the game and it shouldn't be too hard to implement. Not that I'm a programmer.

Sorry for the quick edite but banoilers r bullet belts. For shotgun shells and the ability to add mags to the tack vest and mag holders like police have.

Anyways I'm fairly new to dayz and love every minute of it. Thank you for making something so enjoyable!!!!

Being able to get a soda from one of the machines is a good idea.  Dropping in a coin would be pointless though because there's not meant to be any power anywhere (in the base game anyway, some of the mods add street lighting).

It could perhaps be tied to the sledgehammer and/or pick axe such that with those weapons in hand, you take whacks at the machine and similar to fishing, there's a random chance that after a few hits, you find a can of soda at your feet.

If they add the ability for the generator to power a house or have soda machines able to be powered that would be cool to see them light up.

They can simply start spawning sodas, to begin with, similar to fruit from trees.

Wouldn't really add to the emerson would it?

Depending on the implementation. That's why I wrote similar and not the same. Could be more akin to helicopter spawn, could be triggered by user interaction (smashing the vending machine), where if smashed once it would no longer provide any etc.

Ok I've been reading too late at night. I see what you ment now and that isnt a bad idea. But I'm stuck on them being some type of thing we can bring to our base as a "yeeeeah" moment.

 

Again apologize for the misinterpretation
