Electrical doors and plumbing

[velvetpipe 4]

This is my idea for under ground(or above ground) buildings that the players construct, you can find metal pipes and connect those to water pipes under towns and route them back to the buildings for use in water pumps. With electricity you find generators (that take gas) and you find wiring (that you can take from houses and buildings) and use them to power a base/shelter the player builds. With the electricity you power the lights you find electric heaters (to take the place of heat packs) and to power electric clocks, or (this is something I want to see) electrically locked doors. I want to be able to build a door using two pieces of wood and scrape metal or metal sheets wedged between the wood and held together by nails, screws, glue, etc. Or use metal doors found through out the world. These ideas both take a level of skill and engineering that I believe can be achieved Rocket and his team in 1 year or 1 and a half years. I think that this would bring a little civilization to the game making it possible to make other player built towns. I believe in you Rocket!

You can't fool me, I know what you are really growing... you're growing got-dang fruits, damn hipsters and your fruits.

Well This is not what I expected when I opened my link and saw 3 replies.

If I see one more thread with a hipster complaining about the lack of fruit in this game I am going to punch a kitten.

I personally prefer boarding up windows and doors, maybe make some barricades to create zones and just using the network grid and water grid already available in cities.

Still underground building can be fun if Dean does it properly but isn't doing what you suggested near impossible in real life situations? Not that it matters.

Kind of indifferent about this, but it's better than no building options.

Don't punch kittens. That bruises the meat.

the last thing i would do in a zombie apocalypse is get arm deep in a pipe full of shit

Well in life there are electrically locked doors and it's not hard to do.
