Medic stretcher

Recommended Posts

First off Dayz is the best damn mod for any game iv ever played its more fun than most mmos, anyways i also host a Warfare server with Ace and i had a idea put the medic stretcher into dayz theres been alot of time's we had to leave a dear friend shivering and frightened with broken legs in the forest while we head out to find morphine the medic stretcher would add another level of gameplay cause it requires 2 players to carry the wounded person at a semi walking pace, the people carrying him cannot shoot or anything mind you i thought it be a neat new item

also on a further note add something to your medical system IE like in ace you can do CPR to someone who died if they havent respawned yet you have 5 minutes to revive them(unless its hot lead to the face) when said person is revived they have really low blood the shakes and possible broken bones (see above about the stretcher)

I did a search and found only three threads relevant to a search for the word "stretcher" and I think I might simply add what I had in mind to this one.

I like the idea of allowing two people to use a stretcher for saving a third person. I could totally accept a stretcher spawning out of thin air for the sake of gameplay if developing more elaborate animations are too ambitious.

Another use for a stretcher could be preventing blood loss when already bleeding, either when moving or preferably also when simply lying on a stretcher. Place anyone bleeding on a stretcher to prevent blood loss. The two carrying the stretcher would be sitting ducks so to speak. :)

There seem to be some kind of exploit potential in simply placing someone on a strecher, but with no intention for moving them, in order to simply prevent blood loss. I guess one could program in a limtation of sorts, where blood loss is only prevented when the strecher is being moved, while blood loss will continue when being idle, for the sake of making this idea work this way and to prevent anyone gaming this feature for easily preventing blood loss.

Summary:

• Use stretcher for halting blood loss in a player lying on a stretcher, or limit the blood stopping feature for people lying on a stretcher that is actually being moved.

• Use strethcer for moving unconscious people

• Use stretcher for moving people with broken legs

• Use stretcher for kidnapping unconscious people (possible consequence of using a stretcher)

• Being able to exit the stretcher or resist being put onto a strecher should perhaps be a feature
