Restore Power - More Challenge

Nearly 1000 hours on this game, over many years (remember the giant bees??).  As I've been playing to reach the last Steam achievement, I came up with a new idea -- what if the Restore Power challenges had more complicated requirements?  As in - you need to FIX the generator.  The harder the challenge level, the more you need to fix it:  Level 1 - it needs fuel; Level 2 - it needs fuel and mechanical parts; Level 3 - it needs fuel, mechanical and electrical parts; Level 4 - maybe it needs a quest specific item ONLY found in that area, etc.  All of these things should be able to be found or scrapped within the same quest area.  Even better would be if completing these gave you a reward that includes better mechanical tools (wrench, driver, etc).  Just thought making that quest-type a little harder/more involved would be fun.  Carry on.  :-)

 
Yeah, I really dislike the restore power quests as currently implemented. Not because of difficulty, though. They just aren't fun and are too predictable. It seems odd to me the player ALWAYS fails to restart the generator and has to start over. It's practically identical to the lockpicking mechanic and the first pick always fails. I think making it more dynamic would be great!
