It was nice to see the speed of wound treatment become faster. But my question is for those medics out there about the diagnostics line. I don't know if it's just me but I really don't notice a difference at all in speed of heals from diagnostic 1 to 4. I thought by having 4440 I would bevery healtastic. Yes I will say it's fast but not at all what I thought it would have been for Diagnostics IV. Maybe you all could tell me if it's working correctly and if not would it be better to use those skill points on something else. Thanks ahead for your help.
Oh yea one more thing. You have probably already told this to the devs but a refresh buttonwould bea great thing for the diagnose window on patients, instead of having to diagnose them again everytime.

There was a minimum damage heal timer (about 4 seconds) added to the game about 6 months ago. That timer makes the diagnostic line almost obsolete.
Also, if you were expecting to heal wounds faster by getting the diagnostic line, then you should know that it only affects damage healing (stims).

No I knew the diagnostics line was for damage healing and not wounds. Also what you said about the 4 second timer makes alot of sense. Seems strange that they would do it that way though.

It was done to prevent CMs from using havla to spam poisons and diseases. I agree it's not the best method, but that is a problem that needed a fix.
