@Superwelder did you try to suture the open surgery on the limb?
@Superwelder did you try to suture the open surgery on the limb?
@Huffie56 Yes, it is a good question but I want to be clear here. The bug occurs AFTER closing the incision with the line. As in, you fix the internal bleeding with the surgical line, then you close the incision with the surgical line and the affected limb is STILL bleeding. At first I did not think it was a big deal but I was helping a newer medic with IB surgery and noticed the new medic getting frustrated not being able to kit the bleeding limb. To further clarify, you CAN INDEED use the surgical line AGAIN a third time as you would any area with brute damage to heal half the damage and stop the bleeding on the limb but that is a completely separate process from the internal bleeding surgery. That also tipped me off to this being a bug because using the surgical line on any brute damage limb does not use the same 'has been kitted' flag as using gauze or a trauma kit so it still works while the gauze/trauma kit does not. I can understand if this looks confusing but that is the nature of describing a bug within these multi-step processes!
If I get some free time I will try and grab screencaps of regular IB and a person with this bug.

Description of the bug
Medically trained players using the knife, knife, surgical line, surgical line method of fixing internal bleeding in a person cause surface bleeding on the surgical site(this is expected). However, if the location of the internal bleeding is already bleeding and you use a trauma kit/gauze on that location to stop the bleeding before the surgery is performed, after the surgery is performed the area bleeds but the 'can be kitted' flag is not reset so you end up with a patient bleeding and unable to be kitted to stop the bleeding. Morrow and I had discussed this before they left and I just never got around to reporting it.
What's the difference with what should have happened?
Surface bleeding sites should be kittable and the logic of 'body part bleeds and kits stop the bleeding' should be maintained. This particular bug has some nasty synergies given the patient getting internal bleeding almost always has lost a lot of blood before and during the surgery. Another problem is that medics or synths often kit an area regardless of the internal bleeding before they defibrillate someone and then later fix the internal bleeding which causes this bug to proc.
How do we reproduce this bug?
