I want a kill system similar to the one in "54 Pickup".
The doors lock with a loud click, a soft female voices comes on and
begins a countdown, and an over-riding male voice says "Congratulations,
you are sitting on 150 lbs of dynamite, and living the last 20 seconds
of your life. If I can't have it , you SOB, ---- you sure as hell can't!!"
Sorry, just a little testy tonight. Thievery and vandalism ticks me of!
Even thinking about it ticks me off. Don't ask why.
