Folded up Rollers and the Back pack slot.

Post by TopHatPenguin » 01 Jan 2017, 21:53

Summary (a quick, 2-3 sentence summary): Allow folded up Roller beds to be able to be carried via the backpack slot. Backpack slot being this: Image not a slot inside a backpack.

Benefits (How this will benefit the server and game as a whole): A nice way for Roller beds to be carried around at the expense of a backpack.

Details (Description of how you think this would work, the benefits, etc): Make it so that folded up roller beds can be placed in the backpack slot.

Implementation (Optional, if you have an idea how to implement it): Coding and a bit of spriting.

This would be useful to have some marines sticking with the medic having rollerbeds on their backs.
Aka reduce ammo for certain marines but encourage teamwork.

Im not sure if having the roller take the back pack slot is ideal. The backpack slot is a pretty major slot for medics and i dont think they would sacrifice 7 slots of medical supplies ( medkits, defib, etc.) to have access to 1 roller bed on the fly they could carry in their hands.

Possible solutions:
- original OP suggestion: +1, should go through, even if it isnt ideal
- fits on the suit equipment slot: same bulk as a rifle, the roller stacks on your suits back. Less than ideal solution, but coupled with the OP's suggestion, would be a nicer fit.
- Fits in the back pack: Really would like this solution. Sure, you could stuff 7 folded rollers in your back pack, but a more important use of that space could be had with supplies. Its not a perfect solution, (really wish backpacks could "carry" 1 bulk 4 item inside of it to symbolize a carry strap on the pack, but thats another suggestion...hmmm)

But seriously, does uh, anyone know the way out?!


~Furthermore, I consider that Floodlights should no longer be destroyed.~

If both could be added, i.e the original suggestion and the 'fit in backpack at the expense of space' that would be grand.
