Summary (a quick, 2-3 sentence summary): If you get injured, there's a good chance your character will automatically scream. Calling for a medic or doing another audible emote afterwards will get you the "You just performed an audible emote. Wait a while." message, despite the fact that you had no control over the previous emote. Now you're stuck without the chance to call for a medic, meaning you're less likely to be noticed and treated in a timely fashion.
Benefits (How this will benefit the server and game as a whole): More *medic commands for people that just got their shit kicked around the block.
Details (Description of how you think this would work, the benefits, etc): Remove the block on audible emotes if the previous one was involuntary (pain screams and the like)
Implementation (Optional, if you have an idea how to implement it): Minor coding fixes
Prevent automatically triggered emotes from blocking manually triggered ones.

Re: Prevent automatically triggered emotes from blocking manually triggered ones.
Yeah, had problems with this few times. Or at least lower cooldown from automatic emotes?
