More tar pit functions
Imma Just vus straight to the case, not intros needed. Kossing has been a big problem, especially for players who just wanna play on public servers and be able to pass rancho without being caught up in a battlefield between sabers, mammoths, bison, npc horses and dire wolves getting bullied. Although it has been cut down a lot thanks to multiple rancho updates you still see many players camping around that area. The main reasons that drove peoel away from rancho was the smaller chance of carcasses spawning, more puts to become trapped in, harder to get tracks for scavenging and more interesting places in the map to explore.
Ik this already been discussed before but people said toxic fumes in the area. Although that sounds good it's not realistic, methane gasses we're more potent directly near the tar surface not the surrounding area. I feel LIEK fumes coudk still be implemented but just closer to the pits.
Another idea is the water being polluted because of the gases and tar toxins. Whenever you drink water in the outs you may get poisoned depending on how much you drink. This could help players from being able to constantly lie in rancho and instead travel further away for safe water.
Thirdly, in real life in tar pits when in one whether your moving or not you start sinking, you sink faster when moving but you still sink nonetheless. This coudk make the tar pits more interesting.
Forthly yra pits in cold seasons/night are harder or rubberier (idk if a real word) meaning you can stand on some areas and sink slower in the few soft areas at night or winter. In summer the tar almost instantly sinks you.
Since the main large pit in rancho is based off lake pit at the real modern la brea tar pits, I feel LIEK the tar there (or at least in the center) shoudk be deeper compared to most tar pit locations on the map. Before yall start scremain at em that most puts are shallow, some areas or puts can be deep possibly deeper than a human.
Idea no. *%£? #=) @
While an animal dies it slowly sinks before it actually rots away. It sinks very un noticeably BTW.
Idea no 67
Flies from dead bodies coudk attack players that stay too long(as u can see im getting lazier the more ideas I type)
Idea no 4200
More tar pit areas coudk be cool, I've already sicussed in previous posts about a secret area in grassland south eats fo bear trap cave, but it's kinda hard to find and also i feel LIEK one near ballona creek and weschuster bluff coudk be cool as its near somewhere you can remember and pass by and it's in a low lying area like irl.
Finally one complaint, I feel LIEK the way mammoths does in tar pits in the game is lowk goofy (their pose) first of all, they defy gravity often their legs barely touch the surface of the tar and they look LIEK they have a bad chiropractors. They don't even have a full sleeping animation.
Finall part 2 I wish npc animals coudk wander into tar pits, larger animals LIEK peccary would sink a bit while small animals LIEK bunnies and birds woudk rest on the surface LIEK a flytrap.
That's all, I promise but what do you guys think. To some kossers this may just soudn LIEK a dyslexic Karen ranting on abt random stuff but for peop who actually wanna hva efun please giev feedback. Don't be rude to ecag other in comments and guev feedback for my post. Sorry for 1000 typos😭💀🙏 it's 1 am rn😴
Here's oen thing I forgit to say. I took inspiration from another post but it was also partly my idea too, being able to struggle while in atr woudk be very interesting and look good and sometimes while partly sank in tar you coeidl pull free and escape. This is the part I took from another post (they linked in comments) mayne yiu could struggle but it wears down your stamina idk.
When standing in tar for too long and not resting you would collapse
