Craft sling before you can shoulder weapon

Reason you want? For me it just makes sense. That's it. Its a step in a new direction which most games are afraid to take.

It would be fine, if DayZ were a more stable game

This whole discussion is interesting, it has touched on really important topics and I see that two opposing "philosophies" of thought have been created with good reasons for both.
You know, right, that no programmer will ever read this thread? And even if they did read it, it wouldn't change anything with respect to what they have in mind to do ("unfortunately", often) for this game... right?
For the reasons above, I won't write a complex intervention, but only 2 points (one for each side):
*) It's true that the eye also wants its part, but with all the serious defects that this game has, do we really want to "waste time" for a "trifle" like that?!?
*) It is true that there are much more serious problems of stability, "functionality" and "game play" of the game than implementing such a system, but it would be easily solved (gratifying the eye of the "realist" and not destroying the fun of the "new and inexperienced"): the ropes are created with 12 rags that are obtained from clothes cut even with a stone knife. You can use a rope to sling a weapon. As a script it should be simple... the graphic part is missing, perhaps more "complex" (depends on how many and which programmers they currently have... from what I read in the new interface, they are not few) that in any case would certainly be "glitched" inside everything else, as always and like everything else (in any case not a great sight). And if you really want to do "complex" things, you could add a "realistic" strap to look for and the difference is that the hand-made rope (being rough and thin) hurts more to carry and consequently takes away more stamina from the weight of the weapon. The strap, which is well made on purpose (by the industry before the infection), distributing the weight better on the shoulder, hurts less and (in the game) takes away less stamina for the same weight of the weapon.

It would be easier to ask a modder to make it... maybe someone is already thinking about it.. or it is already present in the Workshop (which should be completely redone, conditions of use for modders and users first).

However, every now and then, it is also good to... "howl at the Moon" (because in fact that is what happens to most of the discussions in this forum...). 😁
