Heroes "Search on the Go" idea

I feel like all searches are already "hurried searches." If you are able to move and still get an item, it is because you had incredible luck, or maybe...

SITUATIONAL AWARENESS***
May draw a hero card if a 1 is rolled for movement.

Now your slower move is explained by picking up the item you found. This idea is borrowed from other FFP games like Touch of Evil and Fortune and Glory. Another thing I would think makes it more fun is to eliminate the condition of being indoors. Imagine that, as you go to move, you notice something and grab it as you go; this could happen anywhere. This is also why I would change the odds to 1/6, which seems to work well in the other games. In a 15 round game (with 4 heroes, or 60 movement rolls), this should generate about 10 extra cards for the heroes over the course of the game, which seems like at least a 3 dotter to me. Playtesting will be the only way to tell for sure though. Let us know if you try anything out.

I like this idea very much. And you may have nailed it since it seems when rolling ones is the biggest pain. I will have to try them both out soon. Any suggestions to my original idea, is it to complicated/random?
