Resist while in paincrit allows you to stand for a few seconds.
Summary (a quick, 2-3 sentence summary): When in paincrit, you can press "resist" that starts a countdown, much like when trying to break out of a nest, where every tick you have a chance to be able to gather your strength and get up. You can only stand for a few seconds, and you move very slowly, but after said time is up, you fall over and pass out a decent amount of time due to exhaustion.
Benefits (How this will benefit the server and game as a whole): This would prevent people from being permanently stuck in "paincrit hell," where they can neither recover or die. The few seconds would either allow someone to go out in a blaz of glory, or move those few extra steps to safety. This would also add some cool RP moments, where a dying marine gathers all his strength to help his buddies escape, or to run to an escape pod.
Details (Description of how you think this would work, the benefits, etc):The marine presses resist while in paincrit, and it starts a process much like breaking out of a nest. Every tick the marine has a random chance of "gathering their strength," where they can press resist again to stand up for a short amount of time before passing out.
Implementation (Optional, if you have an idea how to implement it): Coding.

Gotta keep going.

EDIT: Still, depending on your injuries, it could possibly cause them to worsen though, kinda like how your wounds worsen from being pulled. (perhaps the code from that can be recycled in a way)

+1 I like it. Even if it gets downgraded to something more basic but gives players still some control.

Honestly, the usefulness of this of this almost seems to be non-existent.

Re: Resist while in paincrit allows you to stand for a few seconds.
from a dev perspective, its probably not worth the effort for what it can accomplish for the marines. Considering all the other stuff they have to work on that is.Casany wrote:can you explain why it's not useful?

Very little usefulness, would create lots of code pitfalls and tricky situation to handle. Not worth the coding effort to be honest.

That's a shame. I think it would create a lot of fun RP moments, and vastly improve the round of anyone who has the chance to use it, just by making them have some control over their death (or a chance of having some control).
I don't know enough about coding to dispute you, but wouldn't it just be the same code as breaking out of a nest, in essence?
