Make Crutches Better!

[Star Dust]

I've just learned that if you're missing a leg or a foot, you can not use a crutch to help you walk, this makes almost no sense. Crutches have often been a very common tool that amputee's use. Wheelchairs are nice, but often crutches can be just as important, if not more important as they can allow the person a greater deal of dexterity, mobility, and movement options then a wheelchair could. I would like for this to be changed so it gives crutches and such abit more use and versatility.

Yeah, this. I've never understood if some value is broken or if that's intentional. Crutches should be there for characters who are missing one limb and want to limp out of medbay or whatever flavor of RP they feel.

Big agree. Characters with amputations aside, I found out that crutches don't work on a fairly chaotic round where I damaged my leg as an IPC. I wanted to use the crutch until things settled so I wouldn't stop falling but had to use the wheelchair instead.

that sounds like it should be a bug report, then?
I remember a crutch working for me in the past.
