Medics Keep Kits

Adds player-craftable medical kits that medics will not store in medical crates, allowing them to work benches while always keeping personal kits on hand.

Emergency Field Kits – Medics Don’t Store Kits in Crates

The Problem

In vanilla Kenshi, if a character has:

A Medic job

And a Medical Bench job

They will store their medkits and splint kits in medical crates as part of their bench work.

This means:

They often don’t have a kit on them when someone gets injured.

You have to manually re-add kits.

Sometimes they even deposit kits on their way to heal someone.

Your medics end up crafting supplies… but not actually carrying any.

The Solution

This mod adds:

Emergency Medkit

Emergency Splint Kit

These items:

Are researched alongside the normal versions

Have the same stats and functionality

Are craftable by the player

Cannot be stored in medical crates

They function exactly like standard kits — but your medics will keep them in their inventory.

How to use

Craft a few Emergency Medkits and Emergency Splint Kits.

Add them to your medics’ inventories.

Let them continue working medical benches as normal.

Now they will:

Craft supplies

Stock crates

And still carry personal kits for emergencies

No more micromanaging. No more empty-handed medics.

Add a couple of emergency kits to your medics and let them get back to work.

Compatibility

This mod adds new items and does not replace or modify vanilla kits.

It should be safe with most mods, but compatibility with other medkit-related mods has not been specifically tested.
