Improvised sollution for broken legs.

[Boogyman93 10]

So, now that you can make an improvised backpack with sticks and a sack, I was wonderring if maybe you could also add an improvised quick-fix for broken legs using a string and some sticks to tie them around the broken leg. This could allow the player go at walking speed either crouched or standing up since there's no limping animation. Also, maybe combine it with a bandage or a disinfected rag to help prevent an infection untill you find some morphine.
So if you do happen to have some rope and some sticks in your backpack you could just tie them around the broken leg to make finding some morphine a bit easier.

Thanks. I didn't know that.
Sorry about the post then.

Rags + Sticks make a splint. 

Already in the game. ;)

There has been something like this since day one....

You need sticks and rags..

 

Lol, I was going to say, isn't this what we have already? 

 

I see what your asking for OP, but this is pretty much how it is - no worries, maybe you didn't realize this was possible. 

 

I'd rather see lootable First Aid Splints, single package, that do a better job then the homemade variety we have now.  Hell, give players the ability to craft honest-to-gawd casts once the crafting system has been flushed out more.  Be neat, would work the best.  There would have to be some kind of drawback because of the different grades, but hey.

Yeah... It's getting to the point where if you find some you can't NOT take them. It takes way too long to crawl/roll back to get them later, especially if they are no longer even there!!

I think overall, this would be better addressed once we can actually Harvest sticks from Trees by chopping at them with a bladed melee weapon. It just gets absurd where I gotta find sticks in a barn or some random house when I just got my legs broken while in the middle of a FOREST!

It's in, yes. But it should ALSO work with sticks+duct tape, or sticks+rope, which it currently doesn't.
