Change hand gestures

[finnpalm 312]

I would like to suggest a change for the hand gestures to have similar controls as other actions in the following way:

 

- One press of the key and you do the gesture and then it reverts back to normal.

- Two quick presses of the key and you "lock in" the gesture.

 

For example the one-hand wave. Tap the key once and you raise your hand and then put it down again. Tap twice and you raise your hand and hold it there. Tap twice a second time to take your hand down again. Tap and hold to raise your hand and hold it up until you release the key at which point you put your hand down again.

 

Thanks for your time.

The keys are different from the other keys in the game. For example freelooking can be toggled on by doublepressing the assigned key. The gestures are "one press - raise hand, another press - lower hand". It should be simple to allow to make them "press key - raise hand, release key - lower hand" and "double press - raise hand, double press again - lower hand", just like the other controls.

I actaully agree with this I like the idea of gestures being like other actions in the game

Yeah I see what you mean now kind of like some fps games or rpg games lets you keep zoomed in after clicking aim once until you click it a second time?

Well, we have that option for commands in DayZ. But for gestures it's not an option. To raise your hand and wave you press F1. Then to take your hand down again you have to press F1 again. Instead I want it to be press and hold to raise your hand, and when you release the key your toon take the hand down again. And as an option double tap the key without having to hold it to raise your hand and keep it up. And then double tap again to take it down, for the rare circumstances where you'd want to stand with your arm in the air for an extended time period. :)
