i was in a base fight today, and it was the elast fun thing I have ever done. This was the fight: You have been poisoned! Run to doc for cure (inside base, start to meditate). You have sustained mroe poison! (inside base, forced out of meditate). Doc cures, I am good. You have sustained more poison! (inside base). You have sustained more poison! (inside base). You have been diseased!. This is not a "ner fthe CMs" thread, this is a "fix the CMs" thread.

As much as we'd like to see this fixed theres a good chance it wont be possable. Multiple line of sight checks would be difficult to code, and we know how the devs love a challenge

Brought up fairly often to the Devs...still waiting for a resonse.
By the by....it seems it is brought up most oftem my the correspondent whose profession it would hut the most (i.e. the CM corr).
Desite this fact, thousands of trolls will still post bitter posts about this
P.S. Kudos to the original poster. Very non inflammatory post that I thank you for making. It will go farther than any leet d00d post crying about being pwned. I am just trying to re-assure you that it is something that is an issue and not being forgotten.

How about fix all ranged AOE's.
Yeah, sounds good to me.
This is not just a CM issue.

My question is: With the incredibly easy to make and administer innoculations available was it you or your doctor who was too lazy to get one applied.
Go further inside the structure next time, more of a chance you wont be touched. If you're close enough to the door that its in the "open" position would would be then you'll take a hit from the AoE. Otherwise you're safe until the CM enters the same structure.

Doc area cures should be going through walls as well (all area attacks have the area effect go through walls). There should be no real reason to run to the doc. In fact, since you had a doc, there shouldn't have been much reason to meditate. Your doc was using the new area cures, right?

Yea it sux, get a doc with areas, and don't stay in the base. A cm needs a target outside to get the area off, those lil npc types work great, or the one foolish player who runs outside to see whats going on. Also don't use pets, they make a great target too, so store em. Keep those in mind and get you doc stocked with area cures

I really don't see how this is much of a problem considering the AE size on cures can reach up to 30m which can effectively cover most bases.
