Combat Medic Archive

I was a Master Combat Medic a short while ago. Recently though, i've been slowly dropping the boxes in CM.

Right now i'm only left with the Combat Med Support branch (i have Master in that branch). This allows me to use the Area Stim C's that i had left over...or so i thought.

I'm having problems using them now. Most of the time it tells me that, "Your target is out of range for this action".It tells me this even when i'm 1m away from my target. I get it pretty much every time.

Sometimes it will let me do it, but it never will heal my target and only 1 -3 other people in a large group...and everybody is within range.

So is this a bug? Or because i don't have any of the Distance branch i can't heal from 1m away?

bug

I did just try a different pack from a different crate and it's now working again.

I'll have to see if that whole crate that i made is bugged or if it was just that one stack.

I saw that problem today too. It seems all random. I tried standing far away, I healed like 4 people. I tried standing on top, healed 2. A few meters off and I got like 15 people. Next time however, I only got 7 people and kept getting out of range crap =/

i am having this problem as well. i DID notice however that if i healed a group of people and got even ONE 'this target is out of range' message within the area heal, the area stim was NOT used up. this was NOT my fault and i did NOT run around exploiting it. i am NOT asking to have my account frozen and threatened with being closed (if you think i am over-reacting you need to go read some other boards)

what i AM doing is pointing out the fact that the bug is bigger than just an annoyance and can be exploited by those who WOULD do such a thing. a person could stand in one spot in a cantina, target ONE entertainer like a musician who whould not be moving about, and just use the same area stimpack over and over and over getting enough XP to level up in under an hour, go train, an come back and use up one or two more stims finding that spot again and then just lob the same stim over and over...well you get the idea

the bug needs to be fixed, not as a minor anyoance, but as a major exploit

that does make since. I swear I should have used 20 Area Stims when I fact I used 8.
