Title: Improvement to medical system
Post by: Nred on September 13, 2016, 05:00:04 PM
diagnosis

The one thing that's always bothered me about this game is the ability of every pond to self diagnose their sickness or injury. So before injury could be treated, it would have to be inspected and diagnosed (except for obvious external injuries EX: being shot, stabbed, burned, etc.), and there would be a chance of missing internal injury or miss diagnosis disease or illness.

Before the pond is diagnosed the health tab Would would just have general description on how the ponds feeling an example would be tightness in chest, shortness of breath and a shooting pain in the arm for artifact.

Additionally, you would be able to schedule checkups for your ponds to make sure your ponds are in good health and identify and possibly treat illness before they arise. This would also give doctors something else to do outside of emergencies.


Sorry in advance for any possible grammar areas I am horrible at writing

The whole checkup system actually sounds like something id go for. Getting a checkup could reduce the chance of disease or make things like dementia,cataracts ect. 'seen' before they actually develop. Maybe making so they can be treated within a window with proper medicine,like glitterworld for things like dementia maybe.

Would love to see it even if its just a way for doctors to improve skills and a mood boost,something like "doctor said im healthy" +10
