This addon was based on a suggestion that I made to Cacodemon about the health/armor items in Complex Doom, which I felt were useless and difficult to use at times.
In SyringeMod, all of the HP/AP+5 pickups are replaced by "charge packs". They power your syringe. Hold altfire with any weapon, anywhere, for as long as you need to recharge your health. The only drawback is that it forces you to stay still, so don't do it in a heated battle!
UPDATE: As of version 2e, SyringeMod also features a "radio chat" system that lets you issue quick commands to your teammates or let them know you need assistance. It's very simple to use. Just press the key to open the radio menu (set it in the Controls menu), use your movement keys (WASD) to select an option, and press Use to select it.

[- v3d LINK -]
You must load it AFTER Complex Doom, by the way.
Changelog:
[spoiler]
- v2b:
--------------- - Fixed some bugs related to getting stuck and magically floating while healing in midair. This required me to replace the hacky A_Stop calls with an ACS script.
- Fixed a bug where the Plasma Rifle wouldn't refire until you let go of fire and pressed it again.
v2c:
--------------- - Created a workaround for A_JumpIfHealthLower, which caused very bad desync online (a huge block of DECORATE wouldn't appear to run on the client).
- Replaced the shotgun sounds and the blood sounds, cuz why not?
v2d:
--------------- - The syringe heals faster. Now it's 1HP every 5 tics (instead of every 7 tics).
- Charge pack pickup amounts increased from 4 and 8 to 5 and 10.
- Added custom sounds for the quad shotgun and assault rifle.
- Made the pistol semi-automatic.
- Added ingame instructions on how to use the syringe.
- Armor shards now give you 2AP at a time instead of 1. Did this since the armor charge items are no longer present.
