Now we're talking!!

Since tattered apparel already existed, maybe eliminate the dead man's apparel debuff and instead
tweak the damage modifiers to clothing based on how someone is killed.
I don't know how this is handled currently, (number of hits/weapon used?) but clothing worn by someone killed by a club should have minimal damage compared to a spear or bullets that should show significantly more damage.  It could also force a decision:  "Do I shoot this guy or club him because I need that parka?!"

Secondly, any apparel that is below 30% should be deemed unwearable.
It should not be able to be sold or worn, only incinerated. 

You should be able to "milk" boomalopes for chemfuel. It would add an incentive to keep the, shall we say, incendiary, animals around.

This could work hand in hand with these ideas (and many others):

1. I don't think beer is flammable.
2. I just wanted to be able to make an Incendiary Launcher that's difficult to acquire.
3. I think Incendiary IED's could use an extra ingredient to make them more difficult to acquire.
4. Seems like a no-brainer to be used as an all purpose fuel.

Molotov Cocktails = chemfuel + cloth + beer (for the bottles).
Incendiary Launcher = make at machining table. chemfuel required.
Incendiary IED = component + mortar shell + chemfuel.
All fueled production benches should also accept chemfuel. (Stove, Generator, Smithy...etc.)
Chemfueled heaters.
All chemfueled devices should explode when destroyed, like a boomrat or boomalope, then create bad soil like a poison ship....except it never goes away.....or takes a very long time to.

I feel stupid.   
You can set up  a small allowed area, then go to Manage Areas and click "Invert".

Having said that, my other thought is that fist fights are too often lethal. It feels like half of all fist fights end in a death. That could be toned down a bit. Maybe there needs to be a lesser version of a brawl that differs from all-out melee against raiders or other known hostiles.

Yes....like smacking each other with white gloves and declaring the winner as the last one to say "Ouch"!       I agree.....death by fist is pretty brutal.

Transport pods?

I've never done it....but can you travel for awhile,  set up camp and farm/hunt for food, then continue from there?  You might not be able to do it in one swoop.

As of right now, these are my choices.....I am an old man...please be nice to me.
I'm sure it's something obvious I'm missing.

You're better off spending $30 on this than $60 on some others....trust us! 

OK, guys....I have selected the "Unstable" choice from Steam and I'm on A16!
I guess I was expecting an obvious A16 choice. 
As my options, I currently show None, A14, A15, and Unstable. When I switched to Unstable it downloaded A16!

I think Infestations should take place everywhere on the map....not just mountains.

Sorry guys, I'm really tired, first day off in two weeks......I don't seem to be getting the A16 update on steam automatically.
Do I need to select "Unstable - Beta testing" to get the update?

When I search A16/Update/Steam...as you can imagine, I get everything but the answer.

I agree, sometimes restricting an area would be easier than allowing.  I want both!
I want my muffalo to be unrestricted, except for the freezer.  The way it is now, I have to allow the entire map, except for the little square that is my freezer.
