Crop Growing/Harvesting

[[email protected] 5]

A nice little touch along with the underground bases would be crop growing.

Im not sure if this would be possible in the mod or just the up coming stand alone.

Here is some uses to this suggestion.

1. There would be more use for the water pumps and lakes other than just filling up your water bottle.

2. Seeds would be pretty difficult to find, if they were common, there would be no use going in to town for food and such.

3. More reason not to shoot on sight, other survivors helping would increase the income of crops.

4. Could be used in clan situations, such as firefights, grab a few ears of corn and be on your way :).

5. The rate the crops would grow would not be fast at all, if it was, the scavenge for food would be to easy :P.

Just a few little uses, maybe this would make the scavenge for food to easy, i'm not sure, just a suggestion, so no need to get butt hurt.

It would be really cool to have to go out and search for repair parts for your hydroponic farm.

Hydroplanic or agricultural, anyway would be pretty nice to see. You could even have to find a spade and supplies before even starting.

To go along with that maybe a larger container not for drinking water but something similar to the size of jerry cans for water for your crops.

This as well as fishing sounds like it'd be a great start to the self-sufficiency aspect of the game!

Yeah then we can kill all the zombies and establish a government. After that everyone can move into electro and start working regular jobs.

Something like this would be nice to see and it certainly would lay the foundations for group mechanics. But like you said I don't know if it would be possible in Arma 2's engine, so if it were to be implemented you'd probably have to wait for a stand-alone version.
