Medikit Laststand Revive (NEW v2.7)

Overview: If enabled by your server, medikits can now be used to revive players who are in laststand (incapacitated but not fully dead).

Requirements:

• Medikit item in inventory
• Downed player within 2.0 units (default, configurable by server)
• Player must be in laststand (not fully dead)

How It Works:

When you use a medikit near a player in laststand, you’ll see a context menu with two options:

Option	Description
Heal Yourself (heart icon)	Use medikit on yourself (normal behavior)
Revive [Player Name] (user icon)	Use medikit to revive the downed player

Reviving from Laststand:

1. Select “Revive [Player Name]” from context menu
2. CPR animation plays (5 seconds)
3. Downed player is revived with partial health (20% by default)
4. Medikit is consumed

Important Notes:

• Revived player has low health and needs proper medical attention
• Feature may not be enabled on all servers (server-admin choice)
• Detection range is configurable by server administrators
• Works for both EMS and civilian players (if enabled)
• Context menu uses ox_lib with visual icons for clarity

Balance:

• The revived player receives only 20% health (configurable)
• This maintains gameplay balance - they still need proper treatment
• Prevents medikits from being overpowered

Note: This is an opt-in feature that must be enabled by server administrators. If you don’t see the context menu option, your server may not have this feature enabled.
