#22 - Main base medical facilities

[[R-DEV]epoch]

All to often people get injured in main bases. Whether it's someone accidentally throwing a grenade, or getting run over, or even just alt-tabbing back in game and accidentally slotting someone in the head (I do this to Deadfast whenever I get the chance). It seems the main base can - strangely - often be more dangerous than the front line!

If you do get injured in base, previously you either had to beg for a medic to fully heal you (often futile), or simply suicide and respawn. There is a spawn delay and ticket cost with this.

With this in mind, we've amended all stock missions and included a 'medical facility' in each main base. Depending upon the mission, this may be a small MASH tent, a large 'field hospital' tent, or even just a building near the spawn. In each case, the facility will have a wooden medical supplies box in front of it as a means of identifying its purpose.

If you are injured, simply get yourself to the medic facility and choose 'Heal' from the action menu. If you're badly injured (unconscious) then clearly you need a player to at least heal you enough to get you walking first, but once you manage to get yourself to the medical facility you can fully heal.

Thats all ! Nice add

I would like to see this on PR as well. For example if you manage to crawl back to main base injured, there is absolutely nothing there and you remain as good as dead... I mean, how realistic is that?

Good approach with Arma though

IIRC, if you get to the mainbase repair station, than It starts healing you automatically. But I could be wrong (haven't played PR for months, except 1 time).

atm nothing heals you automatically, its all user interaction.

I think he's referring to PR BF2. I'm think the repair stations instantly heal if you're near them.

Maybe he's confused by the new forum layout

Go to a repair station and it will heal you automatically.
