Ambulance QoL Change

• Add the Handbrake ability.

• The healing aura turns on automatically when the Ambulance is stationary.

• The Ambulance will automatically start healing when you build it, so you don't have to move you camera back to your base, tell it where to go, wait for it to get there and turn the aura on.

• The Ambulance has a clear visual indicator (a big green lock) when it's locked down, so you're far less likely to have it ignore an order to run away or decide to follow your troops onto the front lines.

• It's much easier to use the Ambulance on the front, as you don't have to constantly toggle the aura on and off to move it.

• You can tell the Ambulance to go somewhere and then focus on something else: it'll automatically start healing as soon as it stops. No more babysitting the Ambulance while you're trying to micro an engagement.

Or just add med crates for rear echelons

I feel that the higher CPM required to play US successfully (with so many different types of squads and abilities that need to be used to win) is what balances out the strength of their infantry and abilities, so I voted no.

This mobile healing/reinforce mechanic, free of cost other than the ambo purchase, is something no other faction has, and many top players are able to move their entire army, activate the ambo, and micro their blob just fine currently. Such a change would make that fast ambo/blob playstyle even more powerful than it already is and lower the skill/CPM requirement for using it.

+1 You nailed it right on the head. Plus the ambo is the only healing building that can heal an unlimited # of squads at one.

Doesn't all AoE healing effects have no limits in the amount of models they can heal ?

Please give usf healing mechanic that is not countered by puma. Make it immobile and keep fuel cost but much more durable. Either defensive setup for ambulance that can be only used in base sector and takes long time to estabilish, medic crates for rear echelons or upgrade in HQ, something that lets you play the game without worrying about light vehicle in your base hunting for ambulance. No forward retreat bullshit.
