Summary (a quick, 2-3 sentence summary):
Give every marine a first aid kit to use for bleeding and basic injuries. This was a thing before the Alpha update and was useful for times when you got injured no where near a medic so you wouldn't bleed to death.
Benefits (How this will benefit the server and game as a whole): It would help the marines because everyone would have a small bit of supplies to heal themselves if they get injured in the middle of nowhere. It would also help the aliens because it would give them an extra challenge while attacking the marines.
Details (Description of how you think this would work, the benefits, etc):It would work just like it used to. Add a box named Marine Survival kit with ointment, gauze, stuff to heal bruses, and a crowbar.
Implementation (Optional, if you have an idea how to implement it):This was already in the game so it should still.be in the coding somewhere, but I'm nowhere near a coder so I have no clue.

Re: Marine first and kit
Eh yeah +1 maybe first aid kit with 1 roll of gauze of something else, you can put it in your armor.
I have already seen a marine run to medics and fall unconscious in front of me ( The medic ) cause of blood loss.

+1 would help on low pop and lack of inventory space sometimes

Re: Marine first and kit
Honestly, I'd have to give it a -1, mainly because you can kinda already DO that.
Almost every round, depending on my job as a marine, I go to one of the medical supply vendors that dot the ship and grab a tricord injector, gauze and ointment if I can fit it. It takes up a bit more inventory, sure, but if you wanted, I suppose you could ask the RO for a cardboard box to store your medical supplies in.
A smart marine is always prepared for anything, and makes sure to pack everything they'll need (Food, basic first aid, ammunition and whathaveyou) for the operations planetside.
Another reason why I -1 this is due to the fact that it might be a little unfair to medic players, since what is the fun of being a medic if you have nothing to heal? We don't pack all those medical supplies for nothing, after all..

Re: Marine first and kit
Well, Renomaki, I can see your point but with the medic part. Medics have MUCH more advanced healing items and many pills, why wouldn't you go to a medic after treating yourself so you don't bleed out.
