More uses for Medics

[STALKER41]

1.Medic should be able to revive...
Something like:
n00b killed Player (Minigun) (Leg(musn't be head))
*Player uses /c medic*
Player needs immidient medical attention!
Call Traced to Somewhere of north dakota.
Current Condition of patient:Bad...Barely alive
2.Healing People if they are drugged/drunk...

Unrealistic.
You can't just revive people... There are no zombies, afaik.

What about zombie Elvis then? Papparazzi are always right :P

[Call_me_Dad]

Interesting idea.

But I'm afraid it is not possible to script.
Once someone dies, he will always reach the spawn screen by default.
It aint possible to skip the spawn screen or prevent a player from re-spawning.

Though, it can be worked around till some extent.

That is, if a medic heals a supposedly dead player BEFORE he re-spawns.
On re-spawn, scripts can teleport the player back to his death location, with same clothes and no cash/invent loss on death.
But weapons cant be re-stored.
Players can accept their death and stop waiting for a medic by simply re-spawning.

Though it adds an important functionality for on-field medics.
But it could seriously get very unrealistic.....in case the assailant decides to fuck up the dead body by shooting it a bit more

L4D2 Much? :P
By the way Stalker, It's always traced... for example, every time someone calls the Medic it can be seen in which area he needs Medical Help.

^ I think what he meant was, if such an idea was to be added, there would have to be some hole-free checks + controls in the script to make sure the reviving process isn't so unrealistic, and contradictory to any RP situation going on.

This idea just wouldn't work.
