Use Grenades While Incapped

Description
This mod lets you use Pipe Bombs, Bile Jars and Molotovs while incapacitated.

There are 2 other versions of this mod that already exist. One is from over 11 years ago, but it also impacts primary weapons and medical items (which have no function). Another is more recent, but it has a bug that doesn't give you a pistol when incapped if you're using a melee, leaving you unable to attack. My version of the mod fixes this by including a script that gives you a pistol if you're using a melee or chainsaw. Your current weapon will be dropped on the ground and you can pick it up once you're revived.

For a version that does not do this, use this mod https://sp.zhabite.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3442964786

Oh! That's a shame 😩
I really liked that mod a lot, but oh well... given the circumstances, I think there's nothing else to do 😅
I appreciate you responding, as always, and I apologize if I interrupted you. You were doing something important 🙏
Well, I'll have to delete that mod and keep yours because your mod for throwing throwing weapons while incapacitated on the ground is more useful to me.
And regarding ChimiChamo, the author of the mod,
Personally, I never see him online (I always see him offline) and I don't have him added to my friends list. I don't know if that has any influence, but I'm surprised you say I see him online when I don't see him online, but anyway.
Thank you again and I wish you a great day 😉

It could be anything. My guess would be that it's just an issue with the grenades in this mod being classed as pistols (you can only use a weapon while incapped if its classed as a pistol).

I don't have a fix for it. You will just have to choose between a mod that adds actual unique functionality and new mechanics to the game, or one that gives you slightly different voicelines in very niche circumstances :Eddie:

Also, the author of the other mod is online (he published a new mod a few hours ago) but past experience dictates you probably shouldn't bother with him at all.
Part 2/2
So, what's the problem with your mod? Something weird happens with the Survivor's dialogue when he's standing still and not incapacitated:
Whether you hold down the left click or if he's already thrown the weapon, the Survivor will say 5 or 6 dialogues in the game's subtitles regarding the weapon he's about to throw or has already thrown, but of all these 5 or 6 dialogues, the Survivor will only say one (it can even happen that the audio gets stuck or cuts out abruptly).
Even when the weapon is thrown, the Survivor says one dialogue, but the subtitles for the dialogue he said aren't displayed.
It's kind of weird, and I don't know if there's an explanation. I was wondering if you could fix it.
Since the mod's author hasn't been online for years, I've already given up on him.
Could you please do it?
Part 1/2
Sorry if I'm bothering you, but I was wondering if you could make this mod of yours work "Properly" with another mod called "Grenade Lines on Actual Throw"

What this mod does is the following: Normally, in-game, when throwing a throwing weapon, the survivor says the dialogue regarding the throwing weapon they are about to throw out loud. So, what this mod does is correct that and makes the survivor say those lines after they throw the throwing weapon. This causes the dialogue to appear every time they throw a throwing weapon, not before. (Even when you hold down the left click, the dialogue appears, but with this mod, this will no longer be the case.) There is a demo video in the mod for you to watch.

it would be better if incapped survivor throw grenade not that MUCH long because he is incapped. But still is a great and helpful mod

don't work for me

Ok no I just remembered why I didn't make it. This is a fixed version of another older mod that does the same thing, except it doesn't give you a pistol when you're incapped. I didn't make my own version cause it'd just be the same thing and I didn't want to take any potential subscribers away from the creator of the original mod.

I have very faint memories from a month ago when I was making the melee compatible versions of all these: I copied each of the other mods to prepare them, copied this one, then thought to myself "nah this one's fine, doesn't need one" and I deleted the copy. I don't know why I did that, but I will make a melee compatible version now.
