Heal broken legs over time with bandages (Or crutches!)

[jackrc11 15]

Now we can all agree on this: Broken legs are a pain, and so is crawling for half an hour to find a hospital or helicopter that MAY OR MAY NOT have morphine on it. If you've seen anyone with a broken bone, people put the broken area back in position and hold it there with a cast. It eventually sort of "gets a feel" for it and stays like it. A cast is pretty much a bandage, right? So why not have that in DayZ? Bandages are small, but lets say one or two will fit it find. But adding more bandages could help keep it in place more, so it heals faster. When the cast is applied, it should allow you to walk. Slowly. The bone is still broken and very delicate. But you are able to walk slowly. Attempting to double tap W and run will cause you to go prone, such as when you try to walk when normally with a broken bone. Or, an alternative, as you can see in the title, is crutches! Maybe not so much as a crutch, but perhaps a walking stick. An option could be added to carve firewood into a walking stick/crutch with a hunting knife or axe. It would allow you to walk a bit faster than just with a cast, and you can whack people with your crutch! Animations would be ugly though... But if you combine bandages and crutches, you can walk even faster, about 75% normal speed, maybe a bit less. Bones can heal over time when set in a cast, and morphine will still cure it instantly (for some reason, even though it IS still broken, you're just on a super extreme painkiller)

Thoughts?

If you are going to criticize me, at least use proper spelling and give a reason why.

Nobody wants to crawl around for 2 days just to get off your belly. The game is supposed to be about moving around and interacting with what's around you. What the take, when to shoot, who to shoot. Not "should I crawl or should I roll"

I think it would be better if you could limp instead of just crawling.
