Simple really, give medics ability to hand a field patch to another sodlier which they can use l8tr e.g just like press 8 for normal patch 0 could be for ammo field patch and it would minus it from the medics ....
ive been in situation where i been revived but medic need to deal with others or is a slight distance away and i need 1 patch to sustain me till he gets to me

AFAIK, the BF2 engine doesn't distinguish between different ammo types when rearming.
ie, you've used 1 nade and 1 field dressing, you go to rearm, rearm stations can only replenish both your nade and dressing, not one or the other.

indeed, this came up in suggestions regarding reloading AT only.

Nedlands has certainly said otherwise, I'm sure.

One way you can get around this is to create a rally at a good location before an advance, deploy a rally point there and then have everyone in the squad drop they're ammo and field dressings so that if you are hurt and cant get to a medic you just fall back there to heal.
Same thing for ammo, if you're out fall back and re-arm from the ammo bags.
