Repairing Teammates

[blankgirl]

Now that players are rewarded for fixing team generators, stations, and turrets, wouldn't it make sense to give a point for repairing a teammate?

Just sayin'

I repair people quite often as an Angel with the bio feedback beam.

Maybe we can just get points for being on a team.

Actually you've always been rewarded points for repairs, there just hasn't ever been a message for the majority of them. The only change to the actual points was raising the points given for generators from 1 to 2.

As for player repair rewards I feel like it would be way too spammable. For example you're following someone with the builder repair gun who'se getting chained and you keep repairing them to full health many times..20+ points in a few seconds. Maybe if there were a delay..

or give them 0.25 of the points if the player they are repairing kills someone within 5 seconds

I've always felt like repair points should be distributed as a function of how much damage was repaired... But if we did that we'd have decimals in our scores, and I don't feel strongly enough about it to want to look at decimals all the fucking time.
