Client Command:saveme

General

This command is used ingame by players to call for help from allied medics and engineers.

Pressing and holding a key bound to the command brings up a radial menu with the following options:

• Left - Medic! - I'm infected %h - %a
• Centre - Medic! - I need health %h - %a
• Right - Engy! - I need armour %h - %a
• Top - Engy! - I need ammo

Just pressing and releasing triggers the default medic health call.

Visual

• The command "saveme" triggers a red cross symbol or wrench over the player who issues the command, according to the selected option. Allied medics and engineers can see the appropriate symbol over other allied players who trigger the command.

Textual

Saveme also triggers a text message requesting health and/or armor based on the players current supply.

• If a player needs health and armor:

"I need health and armor! %h - %a"

• If a player only needs health:

"I need health! %h - %a"

• If a player only needs armor:

"I need armor! %h - %a"

• If a player is infected:

"I am infected and need a medic! %h - %a"

• If a player has full health and armor, saveme should not trigger, instead returning a message to the player that they do not need help.

Audible

• The saveme command also plays a wav or mp3 file for allies close by alerting them to the request.

Other

• The saveme command can only be called once every 5 seconds. The visual notifier lasts for this same duration. say_team text can only be triggered once every 5 seconds per the commands limit. The radial menu should be greyed out for 5 seconds after issuing a command with it.

• Also to note, there is a separate wrench model to accompany the medic cross, which will display to allied engineers like the cross does to medics.
