Dumpsters more utilized throughout the map

Description: Utilize the dumpster diving for hobos on more dumpsters, more evenly spread through the map. 

	Reasoning: More so, there are 11 dumpsters on the standard map that hobos can dumpster dive from, even though there are more dumpsters throughout the map which could be used for diving. 
There are 3 dumpsters close to spawn. 4 in residential, and 4 downtown. None in the sewers, near beach, industrial, or the far NW residential area that you can dive from. 

I do know that there are about twice as many, if not more dumpsters around the map which you cannot dive from. Which for the most part is in areas which aren't frequently populated. I would say having more dive-able dumpsters throughout the map may let more plays go into these areas and let more players explore the map. 

	Additional Information: Here is a photo over the map and marked in red are the dumpsters you can dive from.

I can add more dumpsters to the surface of the map if needed, but it doesn't make sense to put dumpsters in the sewers. 
It's probably best to put the dumpsters near the spawn & common areas of the map to keep things lively, rather than encouraging hobos to hang out in obscure areas. 
Hobo's can already make massive amounts of money from the existing dumpsters, so I am a bit hesitant to give them more.

+1: Even though I would like to see more accessible/Hobo dumpsters around the map I also understand that it would be maybe too much, like Proggy just said :

But I think that adding a few more wouldn't be bad, especially in those areas where there are no dumpsters at all. For instance, adding 1 to the industrial area and maybe 2 to the suburbs would be perfect in my opinion. Also, no dumpsters in the sewers that doesn't make sense

I like the map you've made showing the current locations and it's interesting to see there aren't currently any in the industrial or suburbs areas as Wendoly said. I think it would be cool to add a few more in those locations perhaps, but as Proggy said, it's better closer to the action so to speak, to keep the map feeling lively, plus because it's a great way of earning good money as a new player, it's a good idea to have them spread throughout the map above-ground to encourage exploration and bumping into / meeting new people. Great suggestion though 🙂

I did test this and a hobo can make between 250k-300k/hr if fully grinding them out, which would be similar to a meth manufacturer with 2x stoves and 2x maxed printers. Granted that is also just mentally exhausting. I've done the full circle grind lots of times, but generally for about 2-3 cycles which would over the cycle be 10ish minutes and around 30k depending on diving luck. 

I do agree that the sewers could be left alone, though I think adding 1-2 in the suburbs will and least get more traffic in those areas. Primarily because suburbs I think is pretty underrated of an area which it would be nice to see more players around there.

Neutral 

Honestly with the earnings you can make if you’re smart I don’t think we should add more dumpsters but  maybe switch the locations around of the current ones
 

feel like if we add more locations you’re just gonna see hobos that have a shit ton of money playing the job which I think takes away the aspect of the job itself.

I main hobo and have 19m. There are far easier ways to make money than dumpster diving as a hobo (gun with donation, casino, largest cock on the server, etc.) where its not hard to make 1m+ in a short period of time.
