Combat Medic Archive

When a Doctor or Medic uses a stim pack while sitting, they stand and then auto sit. When a Combat Medic uses a Ranged Stim while sitting, they stand up and stay standing.

Why?

Sitting down in the middle of a heated battle is some times the only way to keep enough mind to keep your party alive, barring the consumption of food or spice, which is not always available at the time.

It could be said that a heated battle on SWG, as a CM, could plausibly add to my already growing issue of Carpal Tunnel Syndrome, due to the fact that i have to hit /sit over and over as i heal with ranged stims.

Any comments?

This isn't by far the correct solution to this. I totally see your point, at least we should kneel if we were kneeling.

but....

Macro this and hotkey it...

/healdamage; /sit

/lol for good measure after it

We are COMBAT medics, as you notice I put lots of pressure on the word combat .
When I heal I always fight if I sit I would not be able to fight .... The only exception is when hell breaks loose and ppl dropping left and right and when a fraction of a second makes a difference between life or death.

Also note that posture changes are very risky ... have you ever got hit by dizzy?
