Suggestion Title: Garbage Mounds
Suggestion Description: Now that we have the shovels, with all the various dumpsters/trash piles around the map, I thought it might be a nice addition to add garbage mounts as well as the dirt mounts.
Garbage mounds would almost exclusively spawn around dumpsters in non-muggable areas, but would have a much lower chance of giving high value items, and most frequently give out lower tier rewards, primarily trash/food/ashtrays etc. That being said, while the chances are significantly worse, they'd still be able to give out all the higher tier items, barring the legendary ultra-rares.
Why should this be added?:
-More dig spots during high pop
- Lower risk option for players who want to avoid mugging zones without breaking balance
- Creates even more foot trafic and desire to search around places that aren't very heavily trafficed
What negatives could this have?:
- Oversaturation of dig spots
- Devaluing existing dirt mounds
- Could lower concentration of sewer-digging players
What problem would this suggestion solve?: The biggest issue right now, is that when there's other players committing to it, it can be really hard to find mounds. Just being at a lower population is typically the best way to get them consistently, and that's not particularly fair to players who are primarily on at highly active times. This at least gives more of a reason for some players if they just want to keep the flow going to check more areas than just the big hotspots, even if they aren't as rewarding
