Devs, please hire a consulting mechanic.
I really don't care about the nerf to Billy, because I have no skill with him anyway. What does bother me is the fact that you added an overheating function to an engine that will never overheat!!!!
The signature of an air cooled two stroke engine, which is found on all chainsaws and weedeaters is that you can run it full throttle for hours on end without issue.
What two strokes aren't known for is economy, so fuel would gave been the better option.
The generators also annoy me greatly, exposed pistons and no cylinder heads. Means they have no chance of running.

i don't know much about mechanics, but when i got this game for a friend who regularly works on their car and other such stuff, their first complaint was about how nonsensical the gens are. i can't wait to hear what they have to say about the chainsaw

sounds like they should hire you as "consulting mechanic"

yep, most people don't know this but its same reason you can ride a something like a Vespa scooter "wide open throttle" WOT until it runs out of gas which is hundreds of miles LOL and it has no radiator, all air cooled baby.

I love the mechanic discourse over the physics behind his chainsaw.
Honestly OP you're right and those small details do make the difference.

This. I was just thinking about how a backrub is able to heal a wound from a giant meat hook through the chest. 😂

Yeah they should also consult a doctor so they can tell them that rubbing someones back for 12 seconds doesn't heal a hook sized hole in someones shoulder. /s

Its weird yes but I would also question *why the hell does Hillbilly run faster while his chainsaw is revved up anyway?*
Like really if he can run that fast with the chainsaw on his shoulder he should be able to do it any time he wants. If anything sprinting would be easier without the chainsaw. Same for bubba really.

I understand that things should be taken with a grain of salt, but changing the fundamental operation of a device bothers me. It would be like the flashlight needing time to warm up before working, that's not how flashlights work!!!

They increased it to 16 seconds like 2 years ago ....

You've clearly never had a sibling yell "hey, look at this", then shine an led flashlight in your eyes. Trust me, it blinds you for a few seconds.

So don't make billy more skill based by giving him a resource management cuz it wouldn't make sense in real life, so ok lets talk about him chainsawing your back, or u getting hooked and hanging on a rusty hook, or cowboy putting a spear in your chest then dragging u with a chain to then stab u with a knife on the end of his weapon just so u can then run away xd. If we are going for realism we might as well delete the game. I can't believe the fact that his chainsaw overheating is not a problem gameplay wise but it wouldn't make sense in real life. lol
