Field Hospital
| “ | A field medical facility used to treat critically wounded soldiers at the front line. | „ |
| — In-game description |
The Field Hospital is a player-built structure that converts Critically Wounded Soldier items into Soldier Supplies and can act as a Medical Base. It is a smaller version of the Hospital with just 6 beds.
Construction
It can be built with a Hammer and 200 Basic Materials. It can be placed anywhere on land, except on roads, beaches, bridges, rocks.
Use
Its interface can be accessed by pressing E when on foot or driving a logistics vehicle.
Hospital
Despite its name, it does NOT offer any way to heal a player's injuries.
Critically Wounded Soldiers can be transfered into its inventory with an Ambulance or on foot. To submit them while on foot press V or open the structure's menu and click the "Submit Large Item" 
button.
Critically Wounded Soldiers in the inventory can be submitted into one of the 6 alloted beds of the Hospital section with the "Submit Patient" 
button for them to recover. Each patient recovers independently and recovery takes 10 minutes. The recovery of the latest patient can be canceled and the Critically Wounded Soldier put back in the inventory by pressing the "Retrieve Patient" 
button. This only works if at least one patient is not fully recovered.
A Recovered Patient can be converted into 3 Soldier Supplies by clicking the "Retrieve Supplies" 
button once. The supplies appear in the structure's inventory.
| Input(s) | Output(s) | Time |
|---|---|---|
1 x Critically Wounded Soldier  | 3 x Soldier Supplies  | 00:10:00 |
Each Recovered Patient kept in bed counts as 3 "Respawn Supplies" for respawning purposes.
Medical Base
It can serve as a Medical Base where player can set their "medical" spawn by clicking the Assign Spawn Point 
button so that they can respawn there after death if the Field Hospital has Respawn Supplies left.
Storage
It has a stockpile that can hold medical equipments, Medic Uniforms, and Starter Kit equipment. In the interface you can view the Stockpile Actions Log 
to check what was added and retrieved from the stockpile.
Tactics
As the only respawn point that does not require a Construction Vehicle to be built, it can be used by players infiltrating the enemy backlines as a makeshift base. And unlike other Bases, it won't appear on the map of your allies thus preventing any intel leak from your own faction as long as the Field Hospital isn't under a friendly Watch Tower. Killing enemy players can drop Critically Wounded Soldiers that can then be submitted into the Field Hospital to enable respawns. The gear of killed enemies should be retrieved and placed in the hospital's inventory to use after respawning there. Since the Field Hospital has a stockpile crates of medical equipment and medic uniforms can be directly submitted to it, making it easy to deliver large quantities of medical gear to it even deep in enemy territory.
Trivia
- Critically Wounded Soldiers and Wounded Players should not be confused, despite both able to be carried on the player's shoulders. Wounded Players can still be revived, while Critically Wounded Soldiers are just in-game Large Items.
- Hospitals, like other medical structures and vehicles in Foxhole, use a green cross instead of a red one. The reason for this is because the use of red crosses are restricted in use under the Geneva Convention.
