Ah yeah, all the shogun exclusive weapons. That's exactly what I need.

You can also have the particles just not work without a nurse nearby.

I'll admit I don't know what makes it so a specific actor can't pick up certain weapons (I'd want her to still be able to pick up her own weapons if they got knocked out of her hands, but can you globally forbid and actor from picking anything up other than those from a certain weapon set?). I would rather see the nurse come with a healing gun and have no healing aura. That way the nurse is essentially tending to the soldiers and actually healing them with the gun instead of having happiness and warmth emanate from her being. And if the healing gun can only be used by her and does not appear on the buy menu, it would justify having the medic unit out for healing purposes. And if you really want a healable medic unit... just have the player shell out for two medic uits and have them heal each other.

The only problem I had with the healing gun is that you completely take away the ability to be shooting with one actor while healing with another, unless the shooting is being done automatically by the AI. If I had it my way, I'd have it the reverse, and have the Nurse auto healing nearby troops by the AI whilst I shoot.

You can adjust her AI to do that with Lua. It'll take some creative use, but it's definitely possible. Just make sure she exclusively fires at your troops. Don't want her healing the enemy! Haha.

If you set units into gold dig mode while they're holding a tool, wouldn't they mindlessly dig into the air?
Though that doesn't always work.

Now that I got the Behemoth done for the dummies, I might get around to making them a Nurse. Or maybe...a medic Dreadnaught?

Plastic people with boobies. But the boobs are made from SILICON! Kekekekeke. Anyway, LFOW, if you do manage to make femdummies, I'm sure you'd be even more popular around these parts. And the medic dreadnought... quite a nice idea really. Could be expanded into walking generators...

If it really gives you trouble just make it smaller. Yeah, that's similar to the idea behind my shogun exclusive weapons. The problem here though is that the medic will leave a trail of un-touchable weapons in her wake, which is a problem.

Re: Paramedics: The Nurse you never knew. UPDATED 6-18-09
Could you not add a similar script that just checks weapons greater than 50 pixels away and makes them hittable by MOs again?
