First off, Search Function, I have used you!

However, I have a slightly more precise suggestion in mind than those previously put forward.

First, use the new cade health system for it. Meaning, make it so you can toggle it on and off (not everyone is going to want to be able to see them nor do they need to). One thing I'm conflicted on is whether or not to have all the bars show up, or only the ones that you are looking directly at, like the cade system does now. Also as stated in previous threads, do NOT show the Nord health bars because that would lead to "kill whoring" as someone put it. Not to mention the clutter on the screen.

Thoughts?

I assume the reason behind this is primarily for medics? If that is the case I definitely see some pros to this and in fact I was in a run this morning with limited med kits and this function would have been very nice. Do you have any other reasons for this feature?

Yes, my primary reason for wanting this is to help the healers and hence the whole team. It would also be useful because you could cade in spots you wouldn't normally because you could heal only when absolutely necessary. It might change the way certain maps are played, which would be cool.
