New Feature :
Walk speed limits (3 presets)
Integrated with the vanilla Walk action: Settings → Character Controls → Walk.

----------------
Fixes :
- Reload while canting no longer breaks.
- Weapon deployment will cancels combat features and  blocks their activation.
- M16A2: corrected tilted ADS alignment.
- M16A2: fixed inertia-stop locomotion so end frames match the corresponding idle (forward/back/left/right).
- Jumping now correctly cancels Blind Fire.
- Updated mod description

- Animation graph is up to date with the latest vanilla update. (Should fix the bug where the grenade get stuck in the hand after successive throw. 
- Added back left blind fire with a new logic to avoid the buttstock colliding in the head. 
- Canting state is retrieved after blind fire. 
- Jumping no longer cancel canting (falling and escalading still cancel the canting).
- Improved aim up of sided blind fire.
- Moving no longer cancel blind fire when crouching. 
- Fixed broken reload during high ready and blind fire.
- The left hand thumb is lowered during the ADS of the AK-74 handling animation, to clear the sight view.

Fixed incorrect rotation and adjusted the body mechanic of dynamic freelook of weapon lowered stance.
Removed dynamic freelook for the weapon raised stance, was causing too much trouble to adjust for every important situations. 
Adjuted the highready "aim down" for every stances.

Patch notes:
-Aiming deadzone is enable only during blind fire. Disabled for point shooting and ADS. You can lock the version 2.0.64 to keep playing with full deadzone potential until I find a better solution.

Patch note :
High Ready is no longer canceled when freelooking.
High Ready is no longer canceled by obstacles.
Experimental aiming deadzone system added. (Testing)
Added new canting animations for machine guns.
Removed left shoulder aiming (not feasible across all weapon types, removed for consistency and fair play).
Reduced transition time for blind bire by 30%.
Reduced Blind Fire transition time (except on machine guns).
Fixed incorrect animations used for adjusted standing locomotion.

_________________________________________________________________  

Everything is inspired by the vanilla Arma Reforger animation system.

Changed : Using ADS button after entering in ADS and the high ready was active will make the weapon return in high ready.
Using de High ready button will cancel the ADS if High ready was active before entering in ADS.

Fixed : Grenade idle animation bug when pressing high ready button.

Fixed : High ready of pistols was canceled when walking fast.

- Fixed T pose when dropping the weapon while having the weapon canted
- Fixed source of bug regarding RHS: StatuQuo because of character graph override.

Test of high ready animations system for rifles type and pistols type. 
- QOL improvement for the usage of canting and blind fire.
- Canceling the tactial sprint will automatically raise the weapon if it was partially lowered.
- Animation logic improvements.
- Tweaked the upperbody motion of the animation "Run forward weapon raised" 
- New modded script to regroup all keybinds and commands. Foundations of future features.

Some bug may happen, report them on TAO discord and I will try to fix them in a next patch.

If there is anything making the game unplayable DM me I will revert to the precedent version if necessary.
