Description
This mod animates various player actions:
- in menus, indicated by looking at their wirst LCD
- clicking, typing or changing tabs in those menus
- looking in the terminal of a ship, indicated with a cable
- looking through a camera block indicated by holding the wrist LCD like a compact camera
- remote controlling a ship indicated by holding the thumb on the wrist LCD
- pushing buttons on doors, button panels or holding button on medical rooms


Client-side settings
You can configure certain things like cable quality (if it affects your framerate) in the config file at:
%appdata%/SpaceEngineers/Storage/652337022.sbm_Interaction/settings.cfg

You can reload the config in-game by typing /interaction reload in chat.


Known issues
- Many xD re-work in progress (see below if you wanna help test)
- [fixed] Female engineer doesn't have these animations.
- [fixed] With jetpack on the animations are really wonky.


Test version - needs help!
My current re-work of this mod needs some testing, MP testing in particular, for that I uploaded it as a separate version: [TestingOnly] Animated Interaction - once you're there, please read the description.

(it's uploaded under an older workshop Id that I had so that it doesn't show up in the workshop's new entries)


mod io?

Unusable; animations constantly get stuck making it impossible to use tools until you open an interface again to "unstick" the animation.

Is it at all possible for the UI to show *on* the wrist screen/the screen you are interacting with. And then use keyboard shortcuts (similar to xbox controls) to navigate through the UI. I think that would add massive levels of immersion if possible.

The mod works well if you remove the tool from your hands every time, therefore you need to make an amendment. When entering a menu, you need to make sure that the character automatically removes the tool from his hands. Then I took them, or maybe I didn't take them.

Мод работает хорошо если каждый раз убирать из рук инструмент, следовательно нужно внесли поправку. При входе в какое нибудь меню, нужно сделать так чтобы персонаж убирал сам автоматически инструмент из рук. Потом их брал, или можно чтобы не брал.

It's not as binary, I do work on various (too many) things including this one, but nothing worth releasing as it's not even functional... a while back I did start over a 3rd time and having a hard time structuring stuff to also make it expandable :( I also can't make it not expandable because then I end up with this mod again, meaning eventually it breaks and it becomes a nightmare to fix =)
