That's stupid.
I know. I find it silly too. But he insists.
-This is what he said-
Basically, when you use the item for the first time, all that happens is that you hold out your arm in front of you and you have to then click to actually put the suit on.
That method was used in the original Parachute the code is taken from because you didn't want to have it on all the time as it changed your physics, your jumps were a lot shorter.
Because all that this item does is reduce the damage you take it would be more intuitive and easier to use if it activated immediately when you picked it up.

Now that I read it. It kind of confuses me and In previous messages he thought there should be a disadvantage like the parachute.
Well, for the problems he stated, I'm no pro scripter and I'm confused on how to do/fix them. If anyone could help they would surely get credit.
