Something I actually found that was surpringly not in the game. Basically making a new kind of tile that allows you to make a trench in the ground - it could be used mainly for defense by allowing your pawns to fire from it (reducing the chance of taking damage by making them a much smaller target)

Another idea for a trench is to add the ability to fill it with water - and by that - I mean another tile that is already water filled that you can spawn out, drastically reducing the speed of anybody (including your own) that go through it, giving your defenders more time to take the enemy out but at the cost of not allowing you to pass wiring through it.

Heck if need-be I could even make the model for it, although trying to code it is beyond my capabilities =(

there are mods that allow trenches ingame already. i suggest you check them yourself for the one you want.

And what would this allow that sandbags don't do already ? :(. I can think of only one use - stopping elephants. Elephants can't jump. In ZOOs, it's more effective to keep elephants in with dry moats rather than fences. An elephant would break his bones upon falling 50cm and he knows this.

Maybe you could put spikes at the bottom to keep people out
In the end, we all make the same leather hats.
