Suggestion Title: Increased body drag speed for high ranks
Suggestion Description: At Advanced Paramedic and Advanced Firefighter, allow bodies to be dragged slightly faster by holding SHIFT. This would take up the same stamina as running normally.
As the rank increases from this benchmark all the way to Chief Paramedic/Chief Firefighter, slowly increase the speed at which bodies can be dragged until it is at the same speed as normal running.
This would mimic the 'fireman's carry' techniques which would reasonably be refined through experience in the first-response fields.
Why should this be added?:
Adds a passive perk that makes paramedics/firefighter's lives much easier, as dragging bodies down is at the moment no more efficient if done by a paramedic, firefighter, or average joe.
Encourages emergency services to co-operate and allows for the senior ranks to be more available as they can clear scenes faster.
Allows for more complex rescues such as firefighters rescuing burning suspects from fires where every second matters.
What negatives could this have?:
The drag speed could be abused to grab bodies out of dangerous situations, though this is as likely to happen without this increase as the rank required to even get a slight increase in speed typically comes with some experience and rule knowledge.
