Quoted from Steve
are there actually any downsides to auto-heal?
I’ve heard that it starts the healing like half a second slower.. (which you can also hear whenever you heal somebody, with auto-heal it sound like you’re healing the person twice at the beginning) but I’ve yet to find any proof of that..
Just play without it for a while. You’ll see for yourself :)

I dont see it, and i played with both for a really long time ;)
I use it because it makes the easiest class in this game even easier.
I use it. I don’t want to spend an entire match holding down the same button, and I also find my mouse movement to be better when I’m not holding down anything (I can’t track for shit)

What’s there to track as medic?
Anyone ever tried -mouse1 as +attack so releasing mouse 1 starts healing. Surely then you get the benefits of both. Or does this not work?
Use it. Its like asking a soli why he should use the autoreload. Just makes things easier.
I started using it a few months ago. It makes switching targets more seamless, you miss less uber charging time because when you switch targets there isn’t really a period of not-healing. At least this is how it feels to me. I didn’t do actual testing or timing.
Most people tell me that an autoheal script is way better than the built in autoheal but I didn’t get around to trying that yet. I don’t really feel the need either, as the standard autoheal doesn’t give me any problems.
I timed it once and couldn’t find any difference.
It’s just a graphical thing as far as I know.
tap m1
drink cola
go push
profit
why would u want to disable function that allows you to get uber faster and uber more ppl if u need to?

Btw, is it me or is there a bug with the kritz? When you switch healing targets it feels as if it doesn’t release (the animation is ‘missing’). Feels as if your mouse button gets stuck :x
noticed that too messed me up believe it or not just thought i wasnt healing lol.

that was the only reason i could see to use it, it ensures you don’t stop healing where as m1 you could mess up..
Im still on the fence about it but i may look in to scripts as skeej said..
I think there’s some confusion here..
Are we talking about the advanced option which makes it so you don’t need to hold m1 to heal or are we talking about the script that auto heals what ever is in your crosshairs?
//autoheal
alias +autoheal "-attack"
alias -autoheal "+attack"
alias "weapon" "bind mouse1 +attack; -attack"
alias "healgun" "bind mouse1 +autoheal"
bind mouse1 +autoheal
tf_medigun_autoheal 0
I use the script because it feels nicer to play with. But i don’t play medic so my opinion is irrelevant.
