ideas on how to nerf cryopills

[arkand]

As someone who deals with CryoPills a lot, here are my suggestions:

Cryoxadone is probably the issue here as Cryostylane already has a debuff, slow; however this debuff isn't enough to offset the potency of the combination.

Cryoxadone only has benefits/buffs to the character and is primary used in super critical patients who are stationary in a tube at medbay.

So the question: What's a condition that would effect stationary patients less than healthy patients?

The answer (pick one of the following): Knockdown, Stamina capped at 0, Immobility.

This effect is added on to when cryoxadone is active, meaning it doesn't take effect unless the patient is cooled down enough to start the healing effects.

main problem of cryopills is portability, and cryostalane combined with cryodaxane is extremely portable, hence why i see cryodaxane+cryostalane=piss and cryodaxane staying in a pill for too long=being changed to another chem as also a good idea... while yes 0 stam would solve part of the problem, it would still allow the person to walk. Immpbility and knockdown means the person wont be able to escape the cryotubes, and even if he does hell be stun hed till the cryodaxane(i assume it works like that) depletes, or at the very least till the stuns run out which leaves him defenseless

and it still doesnt solve the issue of portability, it doesnt really prevent someone from hiding in a locker, eating a pill, healing basically instantly all of his  damage and coming back mere seconds after he got away

i think the solution should eliminate portability and a bit of mobility... perhaps random, short(5 second) but annoying for combat stuns combined with cryostalane+cryodaxane=piss
