Yes, a repair pack idea thread. I'm quite inebriated, that's why, so this may be OFN. Hurl tomatoes if it is.
*edit* So damn inebriated I posted it while it was halfway done. Gah. *edit*
Change to the repair pack:
Have it slightly heal the repairer as he repairs the repairee. That is, repairee gets healed at normal rate, repairer gets perhaps fifteen percent of the normal rate.
Possible options:
Works only when the repair target is another player.
Works with equipment as well, but at a further reduced rate for the repairer.
<insert option here>
Story Justification:
The technology is older, and the repair-nanties aren't as well-guided as they are in T1/T2. Hence, some of them hop back on the repair-gun weilder as the repair beam is fired. (Of course, strict interpretations of Harabec's Tenets would make that a no-no story-wise, but I think they can bent just a little, neh?)
Reason: I stole it straight from Sven-Coop for Half-Life. That, and it would be a nice little thing to have when I'm playing farmer//HoF support. Might also help encourage more repairs on pubs, too.
