when you're in possession of a welder, it doesn't show a welder icon over top of welders dropped on the ground.

hopefully there could be a small fix for this, as it does cost res to buy those welders, and i think its important to be able to effectively recycle any marine gear dropped on the ground.

    You want to be able to pick up multiple welders? Run back to base and drop 7 welders on the ground you've found on the floor? :-/

    Why not do it with weapons, too? Let me walk around with three shotguns I've found.. 24 rounds before needing to reload... nice!

    No.. he wants to be able to see dropped welders so he can refresh the decay timer.

    I think you hallucinated some extra words in the first post?

    I agree the dropped welder is entirely too easy to not notice, also we have no clue as to how long is left on the 'evaporation' timer. When I see a welder / shotgun sitting around a corner, I never know if I will get there in time. Its a risk to run out there alone to grab the item, even worse when it evaporates just as you get there!!

    Also, while we are on the topic of dropped welders... WTB weapon priority when picking up items in a group. I cant tell how you many times I sprint to my sg/welder drop and pick up the welder first then die to a skulk. Not sure if that was ever fixed ever. I haven't paid much attention to it lately.

    I forgot to mention that in my post! Yes that is super annoying. WHY does he pick up the welder first? And WHY is there a 1 second pause after picking up a weapon before he will pick up the next weapon?? I'm smashing G like a maniac while this skulk casually bites me dead, while I watch my marine pick up a welder and just stare at it for a second .. oh this is a nice welder.. mm hmm.. what else is here oh look a shotgu-ARRRGGGGGG
