Are you being sarcastic because I don't believe -24°C with a -2°C wind chill is warm that is pretty cold lol now with the clothing you're wearing you are warmish though 1°C isn't technically warm it is just above freezing so hypothermia isn't a big risk.

That is a good point, I forgot about level 3 fire starting skill removing the need for tinder, i'm just a masive horder in games so it must've sliped my mind

Cool thanks for the link as well

Tape we need some kind of tape not for crafting but for marking basically you can use this tape to mark places you been to for example if you search the entirety of a specific house you could go to the door equip the tape and there would be an option to apply tape to the door and it puts a big X on the door letting you know the next time you come across it that you already searched it and maybe if you leave an item inside that you want to come back to you could lay 1 piece of tape on the door so a \ instead of an X this would let you know hey I searched this building but left something inside that I wanted to come back for. Obviously the tape would have to be found in the world like any other item but will be fairly common and it has a durability to simulate running out of tape and this item would be unrepairable so once its condition drops to 0 you have to find more. This is a simple idea and would like to see its' addition to the game if you want to it could be used to craft something but I just want to mark doors with it lol. And yes I know you could drop something in front of the door but I really don't like doing that because every resource in the game is valuable so that item in front of that door will be picked up later and used so this idea with the tape would solve that.

This may be an odd suggestion for the game but as a person who is fascinated by thunderstorms, I am interested in this. my suggestion is can there be lightning in the game during snowstorms, especially during blizzards. Lightning could also happen during light snowfall as well. I would love to be next to a nice warm fire listening to the fire crackle with the occasional flash of lightning then the rumble of the thunder produced by it. This could mostly be an ambiance thing more than anything but if you wanted to you could add a very low chance of getting struck by lightning this would have a 99% fatally rate but if you're lucky you could survive it with major burns but would have almost no condition so you would have to recover this would obviously be a extremely low chance to both survive a lightning strike as well as to even get hit by it just like in real life but it would motivate you to find shelter until it passes. The second bit isn't entirely necessary though I would be fine with just the lightning itself just for an ambient effect. Now my 2 questions are would a geostorm like the one in the game prevent lighting from occurring? If so make lightning only possible during the Aurora, secondly, can lightning even occur during a snowstorm? I live in an area where snow is not very common but the occasional times it does snow there has been no lighting involved. I feel like lightning could occur in a snowstorm but if can't occur in snowstorms could someone perhaps explain the science behind why it can't?

There would be bodies nearly everywhere then so that wouldn't work.

Wouldn't they always fog up then because if I'm not mistaken the air temperature is always below freezing in the game.

Yeah the hand drill is what I was specifically referring too not the bow drill, and with the rocks idea irl, if you didn't know much about rocks, you would just pick up 2 random rock and hit them together in hopes of a spark, when I was a kid I did this in my own backyard, I found 2 rocks that when hit together caused a spark and I started a fire with it. I knew nothing about rocks I was just fascinated with survival based things and watched a lot of survivorman and I went outside and played around with various fire starting methods lol

Well the tradeoff could be it has a low chance of starting a fire unlike matches and at least in real life you could get a fire with a fire drill in 10 to 15 minutes if you know what you're doing so time really isn't a problem, see I wanted to try a go at static survival where I stay in one place for as long as possible but currently that isn't possible as I will have to venture out to find one of the four fire starting methods I mentioned earlier, with a fire drill all I need is to find 2 sticks so static survival is possible then. Also I left the lit torch out on purpose as you need a fire in the first place to get that item so to start the fire you are back to the 4 items I mentioned earlier.

I have no clue if this has been suggested before but I personally would like to see a new craftable fire starter, if I remember correctly we only have 4 ways to light a fire those being matches, magnifying glass, lit flare, and the fire striker why don't we have a primitive method of fire starting for example why can't we craft a fire drill to start a fire or by finding 2 rocks and smashing them together to create a spark? Would be nice to see this addition.
