Some suggestions for new features (vehicle related)

I don’t know if anything like this has been added in recent versions but I thought up a few things that could make things a lot more convenient… If they’re possible.

  1. A way to rig up your vehicle batteries to recharge your standard batteries and/or UPSes. Would a rechargeable battery type be a possibility to add as a crafting item?

  2. Solar panels used to recharge UPSes/batteries/power hotplates etc directly when in sunlight.

  3. Mount crafted video cameras onto parts of a vehicle that you cannot actually see past (e.g. On the outside of a heavily armoured tank). Link them up to a display screen in the driver’s seat. Use this to be able to see all around you. Seemed like a good idea when I saw vampires using this in the movie Daybreakers…

  4. Windscreen HUD incorporating night vision powered by the vehicle battery.

For hotplates you can install a kitchen unit and that will function as a hotplate if you are near it.

Yes but I meant a way to recharge the internal power supply of a portable hotplate.

Because it’s not practical to park your vehicle next to everything you want to cook.

And meat is RETARDEDLY heavy in version 7.1

It’s ridiculous. A meat chunk weighs an incredible amount and yet cooks into a small light steak.

So I end up just taking painkillers and dragging super heavy dead animals next to my RV kitchen to prepare the food.

Nope, i2amroy addresses the point of .jsons, whereas you have complete flexibility with crafting. Batteries are common now.
In fact - there are a lot of improvements over common stumble-upons; check it out, raw materials ain’t trash anymore.

This should be fixed in .8. Upgrade!
