New mechanic to fix boring generator repair and make the game more fun

Instead of survivors repairing generators how about generators are automatically repaired but take twice as long,in that time,survivors need to avoid the killer,hide and do other secondary objectives or stop from slowing down generator repair speed,if a killer kicks a generator,the progression at which the generator is repaired just slows down by 25% for 30 seconds and if the killer runs pop goes the weasel the effect goes up to 50%.The killer cannot kick the generator again until at least 1 minute passed after it got kicked.The survivors can still have interactions with generators ,you can attempt to repair it by succeding a skill check after the killer kicks it,giving it an extra 5% repair speed for every survivor that interacted with it.The effect is only active for 30 seconds and you can attempt to repair a generator again after waiting for at least 1 minute.The generators being repaired are being selected at random from the 7 generators that spawn when the game starts.A change like this will make the game less about waiting and more about interacting and paying more attention to the killer as survivor and making team play more important by strategically distracting the killer and making the game more action packed in a fun way.

    stealth is probably the most boring interaction in the game, this mode basically is just wait for the gens to complete themselves, period. Survivors can just hide the entire time, since there's no reason to expose doing a gen, while killers would just struggle looking for survivors, since you basically remove the general interaction which is one of the easiest tracking place for killers. Doc would just become meta along with whispers.

    also, there is nothing the killer can do to stop gens, since they keep progressing no matter what, so no, horrible idea.
