Very simple mod - lets you apply poultices and bandages almost instantly, though they still use the new heal over time system.  (So slap 'em on but you still have to wait for them to work)

Huuuge thanks QPTech for this mod, this is how I really feel the heal over time behaviour should've been implemented in 1.21!

Yeah we had the same experience, this is due to intended interactions between various armors (including modded armors) against healing behaviour.

My rough workaround for this was to follow on from what QP patched and simply also reduce the maxapplicationtimesec attribute as well.

I lowered that to around 1.5second duration so that there was at least SOME delay while wearing armor but you could adjust accordingly :)

Here's an example of what I added to the json files (a version for each of the bandage/poultice variants) to stop our tanks from complaining :)

{
"op": "replace",
"path": "/behaviors/0/propertiesByType/*-alcoholed/maxapplicationtimesec",
"value": 1.5,
"file": "game:itemtypes/bandage.json",
"side": "Server"
},

Hope that helps and thank you again for this mod, just tell me where to sign to make this vanilla! 😁

Great mod. Especialy if you want to kill Eidolon. Which is basicaly impossible to do on current patch.

Looks like it doesn't take armor into account. I can apply them really fast with no armor on but if I put my blackguard set on then it goes back to the slow process.

PapitoPapz Thanks, yeah I like the heal over time, but standing still trying to heal in combat was a bit frustrating. So I got cranky and made this!

The perfect mix, I got so used to the old speed of applying healing items and this the perfect middle ground that I like !
