One of the bandit designs the team is working on is an OSHA inspector. That's why bandits got pushed back to A22 as the team hasn't figured out how to trigger an infraction and send out the notice / fine for it.

Another good reason to keep them away from our bases, while building.
Would actually building, create some sort of heat map and provoke the bandits spawn.
I know some of you guys, who find building ingame awesome and great could find it anoying, but .. sort of why not, as we are in their territory, invading?

I also would love to see an airport POI one day. However, I don't think it's in the cards for 1.0. I would imagine the big blockers is art support and RWG code support.
Although we can hodge podge some airplanes and other airport assets with shapes, it wouldn't look good enough to stand toe to toe with our art standards.
Regarding RWG support, we would need a way to spawn tiles in a way to support the foot print of a runway.
We don't have airports in A21 but there are a couple surprises in store yet...
I know I posted an idea in Pimp Dreams, as did zztong for ways to link tiles in a specific way. There are so many things you can do if you have control over what types can and cannot connect to one another. This would be an amazing improvement, allowing for a great many new map features. You can do airports, rivers on tiles that allow for riverside POI, train tracks, elevated roads, subway and sewer tunnels, etc. Just adding a way to control how tiles connect in RWG would add so many options.
Edit: upon consideration, I think the best option for this is to have a numeric or alphanumeric code parameter for each side of a tile. Only tiles with matching codes on a given side can connect. This allows control of what can connect together without a significant amount of work for the game developers or POI designers. And unlike my original suggestion in Pimp Dreams, this is far easier to do and results in the same end results. By using a code, you never have to change your tile if you want a new tile to be able to connect to it. Just use the code on the new tile and you are done. If you specify what tiles can connect by name, then you have to edit a tile to allow other tiles to connect, which increases how much work it takes to add new tiles.

That is true for A21 but then in A22 it will be streamlined and abstracted to a simple “safety meter” and the physical panic switches, protective covers, and protective gear will be removed. Those who felt that the safety gameplay (being a fundamental part of the game) is now trashed will make comments which will fuel the next Hitler video.
It’s all good.
“Hey Bill, did you hear a screamer?”
”Maybe…” *looks outside of base* ”Nooooo!!!!!!”
”Is it a screamer horde coming to beat down our base!?!?”
”Worse! It’s the OSHA inspector! If they get inside we’ll never get this place done in time for the blood moon!!!”

-A Motorboat has not been mentioned!
Of course, it's needed to travel to the other islands!
-A Radio has not been mentioned.
This is to listen in on Bandit plans!
-AIRSHIPS HAVE been mentioned, but maybe you didn't notice.
Launch your trained commando bears from ziplines and watch as they smite and bash those evil Bandits!!

it would be interesting if they added a zombie spitting some kind of sticky goo. So that it does not cause damage, but significantly slows down. But about zombies with a wrench also sounds interesting) and it seems to me that zombie clowns are needed ...Как новый зомби по имени Роланд, который все время пытается подобрать мины с помощью гаечного ключа?
The airship seems like overkill to me. Here I would like to see more functioning transport and an adequate helicopter in the game.

Jumping off of a zipline, just before. A future legend and a present hero he is !Like a new zombie named Roland who keeps trying to pick up mines with a wrench?

I like your ideas.
With the Airship, it's just a joke really. They already tried making an Airship, but like the behemoth, the game engine didn't work well with large objects. Maybe someday it will.

I read that as "mimes" on the first pass.

haha...but joking aside, this is a real thing in A21.
Need an emergency edit before release.
Make a new legendary weapon called the "Thick 44 Magnum"!!!!!!!!!!!!
Don't make him a zombie that would be too creepy.
Maybe some audio on random reloads.............."You're nothing!"

Can we please have added options in the base game to adjust wandering/roaming hordes? Size/Frequency. I know there are some mods/modlets out there that do this, however a lot of people also do not like to run mods. (especially on the server I run). I have seen many forum posts and comments on reddit looking for this option and some attempts at xml editing to do this. However, it is a giant pita and not a lot of information out there on how to do it.
It would be great to be able to see a couple slider options like we now have for the blood moon settings. This would then allow us to be able to set up worlds with Blood Moon disabled, but with high zombie count wandering hordes that frequently visit instead. (Another commonly requested feature).

I like the idea that a lit campfire or forge just keeps burning until out of fuel(like in real life) Otherwise you would just fill it up once with a ton of fuel and never worry about it again. We need more things to keep track of and do not less imo.
