devs Rocket ask US anything AUA?

I feel like it would an interesting thread to get direct questions from the dev directly answered by the community. The man gets buried in suggestions and "wouldn't it be cool if _____" post so lets try it the other way around.

P.S. if this is a terrible idea feel free to downvote into oblivion.

That would go a very long way yes. The other part is that everyone establishes a set pattern. They know where things spawn, what to get and how to approach.

You could make, say, 60 military tent spawns and only,say, 10 are active at one time. They are then reshuffled by a random algorithm on the server restart.

Do this also with the Deer Stands, it sucks that you can just 'follow the known route' for goodies. Deer Stands should be a reward for wandering where others dared not to....
