The "Armor Bay Update" : Armor-repairing SWEP for Technicians - Accepted


CanOBeanz

Recommended Posts

Overview

The server has been in need, for a long time now, of a way for armor to be healed without players always having to visit the armory. We have found an addon which can potentially give the Technical branch the ability to repair armor for players in RP. If this addon is implemented in the proposed way below, this suggestion could potentially address the armor repair issue as well as provide a large RP boost to both the Medical and Technical branches.

Proposal:

What branches will benefit from this change?

  • Technical**
  • Medical**
  • Gensec
  • MTF
  • Any branch that needs armor healed

** : These two branches will benefit especially due to the potential boost in RP involvement for both branches if this addon is implemented in the suggested way below.

What issues this suggestion directly addresses:

  • Multiple complaints of there being no way to fix armor in RP
  • Complaints of armor costing too much to repair in Armory
  • Complaints of being unable to restore armor back to maximum value via Armory NPC
  • Provides much-needed incentive for people to play Technical, and an actual physical effect on RPing with other players in the server greater than running around using /me actions on broken CC doors.

How we can Implement it:

  • The SWEP is given to Technician & Technical Command jobs
  • New SOP rules are added regarding the use of the SWEP
  • Training procedures are updated to involve using the SWEP
  • Small workstation area is set up in medbay for armor repair RP (3-5 props max - Medical CMD has already agreed to give up some of their medbay props for this if necessary)
    • (This part is still subject to design and planning as seen fit by SMT / Medical HCMD)

Current proposed rules for using Armor Kit SWEP (Subject to change if necessary) :

  • Technicians must report to medbay to perform armor repairs.
  • Armor repairs cannot be done outside of medbay.
  • Any foundation players may go to medbay and request a technician to meet them there for armor repairs.
  • Medical staff can request Technicians to medbay to assist with armor repairs while assisting a patient.
  • If no technician is available, medical personnel can decide to discharge patient without armor repairs / refer them to the armory repair NPC.

Conclusion
The addition of the Armor Kit SWEP can potentially address many armor-related issues that have been the subject of complaint by many players for a long time now, while also providing a mutual benefit to both the Medbay and Technical branches for RP relevancy and player involvement.

This would be incredibly helpful and interesting as well as give medical and technical much more RP potential.

+support this will increase RP by 1000000% by my technical calculations. And I can make those calculations even better with armor bay. Also security and MTF would really enjoy this.

-support. This will ridiculously buff Gensec. Given their new branch update which improves their weapons, and their new structure in upper D block, this is not the right time for this, at least not without significant restrictions.
