Esteemed community of Tremulous, I have come here advocating awareness of a major issue that is in dire need of a solution.
It has come to my attention that a first person shooter requires an extensive amount of physical activity. There have been many days where I have found myself cradling my right hand as it slowly dies from exhaustion, icy tears dripping down my chin and short circuiting my laptop (gotta get a new one every week), pools of sweat forming at my feet as I cry, "Why!?".
The laborious activity known as Tremulous has parched my lips, extracted the liquid life from my body, and left behind a cold, hard corpse. I am sure many others have felt this phenomenon.
I know how to solve this. I know the solution.
Tremulous. Needs. Coffee.
Ah, the sweet/bitter/whatever you think it tastes like 'cause I've never had it taste of coffee. It rejuvenates the bones, and restores life the the mind and body (I think). This is what we need.
My formal proposal is a such:
(Humans)
Add item 'Coffee' to the armory menu (perhaps at stage 2 or 3).
Price: 50 credits.
Upon buying, a small coffee icon appears in the inventory at the bottom of the screen (assuming default HUD).
Upon activation, it quickly restores 25 hp and increases the player's velocity by a factor of 2 for a short amount of time.
Upon expiration, the player experiences a short blackout, followed by a restoration of normal functions.
(Aliens)
Give ability to build 'Coffee Machine' to the Granger (perhaps at stage 2 or 3).
Aliens must stand in front of the machine for 1-2 seconds for activation.
The coffee machine can only serve one at a time.
The effects should last for roughly 30 seconds. They are:
1) An increase in speed by a factor of two.
2) Aliens will continue living for one second after their HP reaches zero.
3) Tyrants will be given the ability to fly.
End of Proposal (detracts ring).
We call ourselves the TNCM (Tremulous Needs Coffee Movement). Our official website can be located at http://bit.ly/9zP7BA (http://bit.ly/9zP7BA).
It is my hope that the Tremulous Developers and Community will be sympathetic with me and countless others regarding our cause. We look forward to the day when Tremulous finally sells Coffee!!
Thank you my friends. And enemies..
Signed,
The guy who finally crawled out of his hole to make a useless post (by accident).

Sounds like a basigas upgrade.

I can do that in my Lolards mod - i just need to find the place where weapons are actually defined. And where their actions are 'discribed'. Then after that i'll just add a bit of stuff, and then all i need is some models and sound. But in my mod, there's already a vampire mod, and human sprint is x1.3 instead of x1.2 now. It also uses more stamina. So i don't think coffee is really a good idea - human would be practically impossible to kill at the speed of a scout. [TF2 referenced class, not a scout from school or what/wherever]
i just need to find the place where weapons are actually defined.Please don't facepalm quote that please. I know you're tempted to do it.

I thought this post was a reference to the Tremulous player Coffee, which would have made more sense. COFFREE FTW

I'm sorry, but selling Coffee (the person) would be both illegal and immoral. We, of the Tremulous Needs Coffee Movement, do not endorse slavery of any kind.
May you retreat to the primitive tribe whence you came.
We eagerly look forward to the day when the armory sells coffee. Live Free! Die Hard! Drink Coffee!

That is a movement I would very much approve.

Required: 1 coffee machine texture, one I love coffee poster texture.

Unfortunatly, you can't use screen captures from this awesome coffee video (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YmCjMRAzCiE).
