Here we go, another utopia topic trying to achive the perfect backpack system and medic machanics and more.
----------------------------------------------------------------//--------------------------------------------------------------
to the backpacks be flexible let,s keep in mind some things, today we have only medkits in the backpacks, so the ideia is to have one main backpack that is the alerdy in use, the small backpack that increse in one the intens you have, and the large one that increse tree. but instead of having ammo bags and granade bags we put both of these inside your inventory.
for exemple you may have a large backpack whith 2 medkits and 2 ammo bags, so it gets more flexible to make you troopers feet any thing.
has for granade bags they must ocupy 2 slots so for exemple you may have one large backpack whit two granade slots. since granades are quite OP.
the point is to do more combinations, util here all is easycode, let,s check out some crazy ideias.
------------------------------------------------------//------------------------------------------------------------------------
friest let,s discuss alerdy existing things and new ones.
has the nunber of resoursers you carry now is more that only the medkit. you need to press 5 to select the suply you willing to use. so you press 6 when you have 1 ammo bag and 1 medkit to swith then, when using a ammo bag aiming a bot you able to give he a magazine, the same can be donne pressing alt to recive one (alerdy in game mechanic) for exemple, now let,s talk about the new fuctions of each supply.
Medkits, now can revive drow soldiers, when they are shoot you able to select the medkit pressing 5 (if you have other suplys) press T and treat the wounded soldier, remeber instead of taking 8 seconds, you will take 2 seconds to fix he, and if you have medkit perk, 0,3 seconds, so it is the same time you need to heal you self, you take to ressurect a frydely soldier, the medkit will also able to request healing by pressing alt (alerdy in game). pressing K you able to select a wounded soldier and send he to a cover like commanding you troops when alive but also when wounded. selecting a soldier using K you can send also a soldier pressing T to revive the he has well. quite utopia.
Ammo Bags, if you select 5 and press T you will consume de ammo for your self. one ammo bag one magazine, pressing alt you can recive from other soldier (alerdy in game) and pressing T aiming in a soldier you can give hen the ammo, but you can also use ammo bags to resuply statilonary weapows. such AA and AT guns.
Tool Bags, Engeniers will able to carry the same tool bags the crewman carry, but if the select it presisng 5, they can consume it to gain extra building points, they can also repair tanks has crewman does, and repair stationay weapows has well.
Granade bags. Like the inventory expading, you place a granade bag and it ocupy 2 slots, you can,t give grandes to other soldiers, a bit simple but this is it.
----------------------------------------------------------------//--------------------------------------------------------------------
now new ones.
Mine Bag. Like the granade bag, but a mine one, 2 slots ocupy. pressing K and presing M (for exemple i know M is alerdy in use) you can send the soldier to place the mine. nothing more.
Gadget bag, Allow you to carry one gadget, the gadget will place along side the granades in main menu hub. check out some gadgets
-------------------------------------------------------------------//-----------------------------------------------------------
Binoculars, Simple usefull for radio man spot the artilhary. quite be interesting for snipers two.
Mine dectetor AND disarm tool, you select it and you able to detect the mines for afar. the gadget come whit a disarming kit, Interesting for engeniers. (don,t know they come separeted anyway)
Parachute, Good for pilots, maybe later in large maps parachute aircraft may be deployed (maybe it,s a utopia topic) but interesting for pilots for now.
Climbing Rope, you can use to create a way to get up things, either natural terrain or roof of buildings.
interesting for sniper squads.
------------------------------------------------------------//-------------------------------------------------------------------
hope you enjoin this Utopia Topic, and hope this brainstorm do something usefull for enlisted.
Cheers
and Good Bye.
