[OKW] Do they fixed medic buff?

Jump back to quoted post26 Oct 2016, 14:12 PMincognito

Do they fixed medic buff after introducing side-tech to medics? Because there was a buff in previous patch notes, but was not coded in the game.

Simple question - simple answer.

Judging from the bugs/features that were fixed, a few which make life for the OKW much harder now, it appears OKW quality of life issues are overlooked somewhat by the modders in favour of their preferred factions.

workshop card pls

If you believe that something about OKW is buggy and important enough to be fixed (except for JP4 predator camo & flakHT weird setup bugs), that none of us have caught on, then go ahead and suggest it. Miragefla has a thread of his own dedicated to the Competitive Edition mod. I have a thread of my own dedicated to the QoL mod, and we tend to talk behind the scenes and compare notes.

If you have the time, go through the notes here, and let me know if I have missed something*:

* most of the stuff that affect all factions are under General changes.

He's obviously full of crap in that your QoL mod does make a change to OKW healing by making an HQ upgrade available, and obviously has tons of other axis fixes and adjustments. But wouldn't it make sense to fix the OKW healing rate bug in your mod?

Also, thank you for helping make the patches possible. It is appreciated.

I'm not sure why all healing hasn't been to switched over to aura effects yet. Much cleaner/more efficient and no medic models screwing with pathing.

I don't think a healing rate upgrade is needed when you can get access to medics on both the HQ and the MedHQ at the same time. Vet3 Volks also get passive healing at vet3. It would be too much of an overkill.

Perhaps part of the reason why medics seem to take so long to reach the wounded is that the entire OKW blob tends to cluster up at the 1 of the 4-or-so individual retreat antennas at the medHQ.

Maybe spawning a huge, invisible medHQ on top of the actual medHQ to act as a forward retreat point would help with the pathing. Otherwise, perhaps telling medics not to chase after moving units is good enough of a fix.

The WFA faction counterpart doesn't have that issue, since they get the ambulance.

This would be a great change. It is miserable watching half hp squads standing around while the stupid medics go chasing after moving units.

Turning all heals into aura heals is just going to facilitate mass retreats and heal-reinforce-go kind of blobs even more (since all squads will be done healing at approximately the same time anyway).

It's entirely possible to change the behaviour of medics to prevent them from chasing moving soldiers. I have already done this in my mod.

It's also trivially possible to increase the healing range of medics, so that clustered squads don't inhibit their movement as much.

Can you confirm if OKW healrate is still 5 or has it been changed to 8?
