New weapon(?) - Medi-Beam

[Stop-Signs]

About the PR

Healing beam GOOOO. A new t3 experimental tech that provides both sec and med with a healing cannon!

Why / Balance

Ranged healing is cool, the syringe gun already helps a little with that, hopefully this will also be useful. It heals as much as a bruise pack, slightly less than an ointment, and about 1.5u of epi worth of airloss, per shot.

To Do List

• figure out why its crashing
• fix the sprites
• add the research
• add the recipe
• fix any errors with that

Media

Requirements

• I have tested all added content and changes.
• I have added media to this PR or it does not require an ingame showcase.

heal.gun.git.vid.mp4

Changelog

🆑

• add: Epistemics can now research a ranged healing cannon

Hi, Hello. Direction here.
I have a few requests to make. Lower the firerate just a smidge from 3 to 2. The description also does not seem fitting (IK-60 item desc) so I recommend you come up with something else fitting for the weapon. I also ask that you add one bar of gold to the crafting recipe, to make it somewhat harder to make and moves it's recipe more in line with other T3s. Besides that, seems fine. Minor amounts of healing, decent ammo capacity. Good support weapon or medical auxiliary.

Meowdy, Direction has voted to Deny this PR, as we feel there is too much overlap with the existing Syringe Gun, and also do not want to "speed up" the process of healing people. We believe we would like to revisit this concept after woundmed is real (or if forever fake), as it would likely need to be completely changed then either way.
