Tool shed? Slow down early game
How about implementing a system in which survivors have to go to a tool shed to get their tools to work on gens.
Remove the offering for the killer to separate survivors.
Start them as far away from the killer as possible.
Make the shed or sheds in the middle of the distance. Maybe 2 to 3 sheds.
2 on the outskirts of the map, one in the middle.
This would alleviate a need (for some of my killer buds who are afraid to tunnel) for ruin.
It would give the survivors 3 differing options to get their tools at the start of a match. That way the killer still has to look.
In this time while he's searching, not all survivors must get a box. Some could go destroy your totems. So you also must consider that.
This is fair. Keeps gens from speed popping, protects survivors location remaining being unknown, and adds something new to your game.
I take all major credit cards. You're welcome
