As gorge, healspray structures to make them build faster

<div class="IPBDescription">Since it's intuitive; replaces holding E</div>I've often seen new players (and NS2HD) healspray buildings to try and make them build faster, so I figured instead of saying "no, you're doing it wrong, you have to hold E like the marines" we could make that the way to do it instead.
They mostly build quite fast on their own, so the energy expenditure doesn't feel like a particularly harsh change.

    I agree, using heal-spray instead of holding E would make a lot more sense.

    totally agree... even looks cooler...
    a healspraying gorge doesn't look as dumb as one that just stares at the hive.
    is also a litle trade off... hive building gorge can healspray marines less.
    its like the marines not getting their guns up in time if a skulk leaps at them :3

    Seeing as the majority of people do it, I don't see why not.

    i agree because it makes sense, you are adding health to the structure that is trying to build its health.

    logical to change it like this.

    heal spray acts like holding E= good

    Try holding E + Spit, the Gorge's tongue spazzes out but it will still accelerate growth. It kinda looks like it could be an animation for that, like the tongue-tacles the Gorge had in NS1 :P

    I didnt know holding e worked for gorges. It does seem like healspray works when i use it tho, atleast for hydras.

    Yeah most people don't know about E, but everyone knows about healspray, you have to be really close to build with E as well, which is hard on some structures, healspray would make more sense.

    Wow, I had no idea you had to press E. I always used healspray.
