This is true for conscious or unconscious soldiers or aliens. When stun damage falls below health the unit will wake up.

	[[Medi-Kit]] stimulants will counteract stun damage by 4 pts/application. To revive an unconscious unit, stand on the square where their body is lying and use the medikit ~~until it can't find a target~~. The revived unit will be standing nearby without any equipment. A soldier will have full TUs if he recovers naturally, and no TUs if he was revived with Stimulants.		[[Medi-Kit]] stimulants will counteract stun damage by 4 pts/application. To revive an unconscious unit, stand on the square where their body is lying and use the medikit repeatedly, checking after each stimulant use to see if the unit has woken up (see below). The revived unit will be standing nearby without any equipment. A unit (soldier or alien) will have full TUs if it recovers naturally, and no TUs if it was revived with Stimulants. This is helpful when reviving aliens so you can stun them again, more deeply.

	The medikit will not inform you when you have revived the unit. You will need to visually check after each stimulant dose is applied to see if the alien or soldier has awakened. If not, you may needlessly use up TUs and stimulants even though the unit is already awake. If terrain blocks the view of the medic's feet so that you can't see if the unit is still there, check the medic's inventory.		The medikit will not inform you when you have revived the unit.
