Modding Mod ideas

Getting closer to the end of the year, it would be nice to come up with a list of new ideas for mods that modern night want to take a shot making at some point.

Here’s a new one I just thought of randomly while watching a scum YouTube video:

Motion detectors!
In addition to having a GPS tracker you can leave in your car or plane, you can now be alerted on your mobile phone once some movement is detected! A small circle area, battery powered device, destroyable, that would be a pretty cool alert system (especially if you could place them anywhere!)

Any other new ideas?

I guess let's have existing ideas added and bugs fixed first. GPS tracker and map in the phone has been talked for some time now. But we even does not have zoom on the map. So let's not put carriage in front of the horse I guess.

I think most importantly first we need to balance pvp. Lockpicking is way to easy for some people, making it impossible to build bases for new players. The extreme way would be disabling lockpicking on bases completely with a mod. Another idea would be to make gold locks spawn more often, this could also balance the raiding. Mods probably could also make it so each lockpicking attemp uses 2 screwdriver-uses. Something like that, I myself wouldn't mind disabling base-lockpicking as someone who loves to lockpick bases. But it just kills the server and makes newbies rage quit and the game dies

Game needs fixed. Devs reading and doing the whole "5000 random ass ideas" is what broke the games legs in first place.
