Make pills and patches stack (Up to 5 or something)

[CPTANT]

The doctor role is unnecessarily encumbered by how annoying medicine is to handle. A single pill takes up an entire inventory slot and you can't carry much without all kinds of box/belt hocus pocus in your inventory. Chemistry bags are usually not available.

I suggest making pills and patches stackable up to a certain amount (5 or so) to reflect their small size and make handling them less of a hassle.

Pills are separate items, unlike mineral sheets, and you can have multiple pills with the same name and different contents or same contents and different name, or same to both but different icons, or different temperature, and so on. This makes implementing a stack system complicated at best, and it'll result in the same "stacks" that you can see in bags where you can't tell pills apart and you always pull out the first or last one inserted.

medical belt or chemistry bag

Don’t remove usefulness of specialized items that specifically exist to hold this shit

Medical belt is useless for this and why do we need a special item to hold something so small literally thousands of them should fit in an actual backpack?

Why does the medical belt even exist

hrp

[Tlaltecuhtli]

it used to be somewhat usefull because it was a box that could fit the saw instead of saw on backpack but now docs spawn with advanced box that can fit the saw so its a free belt box i guess if you are too braindamaged to get a toolbelt which is a direct upgrade

[CPTANT]

Medical belt would be actually useful if it had some more slots.

I mean it’s like bandolier for syringe gun

Honestly this implementation sounds really good - regular docs the pills will work as expected since they're all more or less the same but you also have perfect avenue to exploit this as an antagonist by spiking some and leaving some normal.
