I notice that the new repair system seems to make treadbreaker a little overpowered as it allows a light-AT halftrack (or a Churchill presumably) to cripple the movement speed of a full-health tank, which is particularly troubling if the tank doesn't have a repair kit and even with a repair kit, I'd rather not have to use it just to repair the engine...

This, I think, makes treadbreaker slightly overpowered, as in the past damaging the engine on a full-health tank could be fixed pretty quickly by engineers, but now it can't...

What I would propose to solve this would be for engineers, sappers, pios etc, to be able to repair a vehicles "status aliments" (main gun destroyed, engine damaged/destroyed and tread broken), but not the hull...

I've brought up healing status ailments only with repair kit and no hp heal before for a much cheaper muni cost, and they said it's impossible because the hp and healing ailments are hardcoded together.

How about enabling repair on engineers/sappers/etc again, but have them repair at a really low speed, like .2hp/s?

this would also make stickies OP... if you're lucky enough to hit something =D

I never repaired my tanks in the first place
