Why are there medical supply vendors in mining pods?

Post by Bombadil » #391500

2 stryptic spray cans, 2 silver sulfide sprays, 1 sterilizer spray, 2 charcoal pills, 5 burn and brute patches, 3 syringes.

This makes things WAY MORE EASY. You can spend 300 points for a shelter capsule to get all of those medical supplies

Welcome to the miner power creep that has been going on for ages.

For the most part we've had little changes in our med supplies save for the removal of stimpacks... I cry everytim.

More reason to get rid of that testmerge ASAP.

This may actually be my fault. Those sprays were added to the (mini) medical vendors in medbay by me, but it looks like pods might pull from the same vending list.

Even then they should only give AT MOST 1 bandage for fire and brute. Or just remove it altogether. All we had before to heal if we were solo was medipens or eat some donk pockets

Should be changed so the pods are instead a 3*3 1 tile bikeshed for defending yourself from storms bare bones.

[20:26:02]ADMIN: PM: [censored admin]->[censored]: Welp. It was just a prank bro isn't a very good excuse when it comes to unprovoked nonantag murder, but since this is your first time doing it and you seem to understand the problem instead of a bannu I'm just going to leave you with a warning. Please PLEASE don't do this again in the future, as funny as crackhead broken bottle memes can be. Alrighty? Do you have any input on this?
[20:26:39]ADMIN: PM: [censored]->[censored admin]: Alright, no problem. I have some input. Fuck my boy pussy.
[20:27:06]ADMIN: PM: [censored admin]->[censored]: Okay then. Have fun.
[20:31:29]ADMIN: PM: [censored admin]->[censored]: Excuse me?

As a miner, I say REMOVE THIS.

While the sleeper was always kind of useless, since most miners fuck off in their own direction to hunt/mine on their own without having to split the loot, the point value for all that medical supplies is through the roof.

Maybe replace it with a machine that injects 5 bicard and 5 kelo, with a limited number of charges (4?) This will keep shelters are a fall back point or place to heal up, but doesn't give that much value.

Crazy idea: have the sleepers contain a bit of chems instead?

You shouldn't give them medical items they can use on-the-fly even with the change.
