Pickaxe

[neutral]

Allow us to mine metal with the pickaxe and scrap cans

 

[Sheriff]

Would be a good feature for later, had a couple people mention this.

 

[Elsker]

If we allow a metal mining feature, it must be related to the civic populous/combine rule in some way and not simply be a farm for the Resistance.

Could add a jail mining system later, or mining workshifts enforced by MPF/CWU. Combine use a lot of concrete and metal for almost everything we see in HL2; they strip earth’s water- would make sense to force them to mine some of their structural resources.

Could we possibly add some more ideas about this suggestion on this thread? I think having prison work crews would be neat, but what else would pickaxes be able to do? Again, they cannot, and should not, be only a source for rebel resource gathering

I think they would be great for makeshift deterrents like self defense or breaking cameras for CWU-assisted illegal activities. Could create RP from citizens not being allowed to mine combine property as well as the tool being useful for CWU itself in case we want other jobs or styles of income for them.

 

[Matters]

The metal could be specifically for giving an item to a combine dispenser, or something along those lines; however, if caught with this specific item generated by the pickaxe, it could be possession of resources charge and go to jail if used for anything else.
