cloud Posted May 6, 2017 Posted May 6, 2017 Penlights aren't used that often and are pretty much useless in all but the rarest of cases, which can generally be substituted for an advanced scanner anyway. Can we make it so that instead, penlights appear in storage or something, in the event that they are desperately needed.
Scheveningen Posted May 6, 2017 Posted May 6, 2017 penlights should spawn in one of their pockets and the health analyzer on their jacket. good idea.
Demonofthefall Posted May 7, 2017 Posted May 7, 2017 The medical PDA has a health scanner function. I like the penlight for RP purposes but apart from that its pretty useless.
Pratepresidenten Posted May 7, 2017 Posted May 7, 2017 The penlight is pretty useless? Its a "primitive" tool alongside with the stethoscope. Its used for quick diagnosis on site, for things the health analyzer cant pick up on. Its very useful for finding out of the patient has brain damage or is blind. Being able to spawn a health analyzer in addition to the penlight would be great though!

It actually doesn't detect broken bones or other more complex stuff the standard handheld analyzer does. The UI is also, for whatever reason, completely different from the actual health analyzer item and doesn't have proper coloration for the damage type.

It's very rare that you don't have access to that and need to faff around with a penlight. I think having them spawn in medical storage in a box or something, similar to gloves & masks, is a better idea since they wouldn't clog up pockets.
Synnono Posted May 9, 2017 Posted May 9, 2017 A doctor without a penlight is hardly a doctor at all! If you want to be caught without, you can always leave it on the reception desk, break room table, or in your surgery patient's incision cavity.
Ornias Posted May 9, 2017 Posted May 9, 2017 I use the penlight consistently. All the time. FUck you for trying to remove it from my grasp on spawn. I REQUIRE it. Please lock this thread
DatBerry Posted May 18, 2017 Posted May 18, 2017 why do you need to spawn with it? you can use your PDA + grab moves to check for broken bones. Security officers dont even start with their HUDs and can get flashed with their own flash.
