Placing Objects [Expanded]

Recommended Posts

The place feature used for items like Barrels, Sea Chests and Generators is great for selecting exactly where a survivor wants to well — place an object. 

It would be amazing if the ability to have the place feature added to other common items that need to be placed such as:

  • Ammo Box
  • Protective Case
  • Gas Lamp + Gas Canister
  • Gas Stove + Gas Canister 
  • Teddy Bear (should also be extended by flagpoles like other containers)
  • Drysack (should also be extended by flagpoles like other containers)

I thought of making this post because I was in our base’s kitchen, it was dead of night — we were cooking our harvest and I wanted to simply place our Gas Lamp onto the kitchen table to illuminate the room. For me to do this I had to frigen climb-up on top of the table so I could drop the Gas Lamp on the table. It was annoying to say the least.

Absolutely your opinion.

let`s say:

ALL containers AND all lightsources ( gaslamp, glowingstick, torch, handlamp, headlight )

should be place(and flag)able!

additionally some car parts:

batteries connected to a lightsource should be flagged, for example!!!

placing building materials would be also nice. creating a stockpile of logs, planks or metal sheeds.

This is a great idea i think. Would love to see just keybind for the placement of items. Configure it, press it and it would make every item give you the placement and rotation options like barrels/tents/ect
