Secondly, your suggestion on Developing Suggestions was not formatted properly-with all due respect, it's hardly readable. I've removed it and placed it here, so you can fix it (use the template on top of the page) and then repost it. If you need help, use my , talk page. Thank you, however, for posting it on D:S first. It's a great way to get some help on it before posting.

Assisting Survivors

Author: Adrian Niles 03:59, 16 November 2008 (UTC) Suggestion Type: Survivor Interaction Scope: All Survivors Description: This action is not a skill that needs to be purchased with ExP. It is used by survivors to assist others that are injured by holding them and carrying them from one point to another. There is only 1 way that this action is available, and that is when another survivor in the same block as you has their HP reduced to half or lesser (30 for survivors with the Body-Building skill, 25 for those without it) and they are either logged out or have run out of AP. Example: John Doe is standing outside St. Mary's General Hospital. Also present is Jane Doe. Jane Doe ran out of AP right when she got outside St. Mary's, and her health is at 16HP. Jane does not have Body-Building. In the box where a description of your surroundings is, there will be a line saying Jane Doe is currently in need of assistance. or something like that. When this line is shown, a box will appear saying Assist next to a pull-down box listing injured survivors. John then clicks on it to Assist Jane. After assisting a survivor, it will cost 2 AP to carry them, and the Assist button will be replaced with Let Go. It does NOT require AP to Grab or Let Go of survivors. Survivors being carried will not lose HP if they are infected and no additional AP will be lost. While still holding a survivor, it is impossible to attack zombies, search for items, and everything else except speaking until you Let Go of the survivor. You can not Free-Run with injured survivors between buildings. I see 1 way that this action can be abused by players: When someone carries an injured survivor out into the street and leaves them out there to the mercy of wandering zombies. Other then that, I think it's a good action to have that builds teamwork and encourages cooperation amongst survivors. Adrian Niles 03:59, 16 November 2008 (UTC)
