Water Bags for Miners

<< < (2/2)

RavenousRat:
Water bags don't grow on trees at base, so you can't gather them as many as you want. Of course there're wells in guarded towns, but if water bags could remove CD for gathering, then wells in towns can be removed, may be only wells in unguarded towns or random encounters near popular towns and you'll get crafting or science or any other CD (which can't be removed with using water bag) while filling bag with water, so you can't make 50 water bags at once. So you'll have to fill 1 water bag, then wait some time, then again, and then some russian PK with russian mercs could come and kill you.

There's wells in most bases too.  But no that's a terrible idea, no wells in guarded towns? That really makes no sense.

Dynamite mining... like it could ever have any usage... BUT:
Obviously, though not in game mechanics yet, indoor usage of explosives is limited, going to mine and blowing a dynamite to get random number of resources is as silly as using grenade for that. You would use that in quarries (like NCR mine), and if there are any guard NPCs this might be a little tricky.
And yet another problem, you are getting what you spend which is not very good feature.

Drinking water: basically the best way to get this would be to reduce cooldown by using cooldown (ie. having water done as "drug" and seeing nothing happens till it expires).
I think it would be more fun if the water bag was "drug" that would reduce action points spent for mining vein.
Supersledge mining: more risk, more gain, as well as making some sense. Might be nice thing to have.
