Sunshines TIMS

1.1.33

Minor tweak to bush-slowing effect: Shin-height bushes were far too aggressively slowing character speed. This was particularly a problem on Kolguyev with lots of these types of bushes.

1.1.32

Fixed: bushes not causing any slowdown.

1.1.31

- The refactor to the code handling lean/focus movement speed penalties had some flaws which are now fixed. One of these flaws was in servers (like my own) where focus mode is disabled; the hold-focus keybind was still causing a slowdown effect even though there was no zoom.

OTHER MOD AUTHORS: if you have a mod that disables manual Focus you will need to effectively opt-in to my custom hook that will stop the "hold to focus" keybind from slowing players down, even though focus is disabled. 

Check the guidance comment in SUN_MovementModifierFocusHook.c.

You will need to set this mod as a dependency on your own focus-disabling mod otherwse you will get compile errors referencing a class that doesn't otherwise exist.


- Another issue was fixed where, when focussed/leaning (and therefore slowed), the effect was cancelled out when the player exited a bush, meaning they could lean/focus at full speed.

1.1.30

Forgot to remove the barefootbandit counter-measures hero image (feature removed from this mod because this feature is now a part of vanilla).

1.1.29

Updated for Reforger v1.8.

Our eternal victory over the barefoot bandits is now truly eternal, more than eternal... it is ETERNAL+. Vanilla has implemented its own barefoot bandit countermeasures, meaning I have removed my custom barefoot bandit countermeasures from this mod. 

I have also refactored the lean/focus speed penalties so that they sit inside the modded CharacterControllerComponent, as is proper. I have deleted my very messy SUN_SCR_PlayerController hack.

Nothing has changed overall.

1.1.28

Bushes now slow down characters much more. Note that the effect is based on height. 
This establishes them as meaningful obstacles on the battlefield for infantry.

1.1.27

Today we have delivered an everlasting victory over our enemy, the barefooted bandit. Running around without anything on your feet now results in minor injuries and minor bleeds:

 - A custom, invisible "abrasion meter" has been created. 
 - Moving around at any speed faster than a walk with no footwear equipped will build up this abrasion meter. 
 - Once the value reaches a minimum threshold, a minor injury and a minor bleed will be afflicted to a random foot. 
 - Choosing to walk, stay still or wear boots will allow the abrasion meter to recover.
 - Stealing your enemies' boots is also now quite funny & effective.
 - This only affects players and not AI.

1.1.26

I have introduced two new features:

 - Focussing (i.e. eye-zoom) now slows characters considerably;
 - Leaning now slows characters considerably.

These effects do not stack. Currently they both slow by the same factor. The logic of my changes means that the greater slowing effect takes precedence however (in the event I change things and make the two slowing effects different from one another).

Please give me your feedback!

1.1.25

Overhauled inertia curves to feel more like the old ones this mod had. Acceleration is now slower, deceleration is longer.

Thanks for your feedback on this. Please let me know what you think about the new(ish) inertia and please report any bugs or weird behaviour.

1.1.24

Reintroduced the directional inertia/slowing and made minor tweaks to banking animations.

Updated the showcase video: https://youtu.be/eIqk0FM8D0A

1.1.23

I accidentally broke the inertia in the last update... I have fixed this now.

I have also reversed the recent banking and directional inertia changes (for now) whilst I investigate some issues. My in-game and in-workbench results have different animation bugs and I am trying to pin this down.

I will re-add these features after some more investigation.

1.1.22

Addressed an animation bug causing weapon sights to be jittery under certain movement and directional inputs.

1.1.21

Improvements to heading change speed reduction to make directional changes very slightly slower.

Improvements to animation responses on character "banking". 

I have also made a very basic video that shows side-by-side comparisons of changes this mod makes: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j8cdd7qbBmA&t=24s

1.1.20

Further sudden changes to directional inertia and character model banking. 

Directional inertia much improved already with changes to rotational blending, turn factor movement speeds, minimum angle for turn factor and there is reduced character clipping when these are paired with further changes to various banking parameters.

Live testing is on-going.

1.1.19

Introduced changes to prevent characters from doing 180-degree turns without loss of speed. There is now directional inertia.

"Banking" animations improved. Character leans more into bigger directional changes, creating much more pleasing third person animations. Blending between these directional states and return-to-normal altered to improve third person appearance.

Please give me your feedback, particularly if you are a third person player in regards to "banking" animations.

Description and banner image tweaked. 

REMEMBER to try "Sunshines TIGMS" (part two of this mod) to get the best experience.

1.1.18

-Increased step up height slightly (should help with some custom assets in Anizay like the mosques and banks)
-Minor adjustments to slope character speed-reduction to improve the feel of going up certain steps.

1.1.17

Stamina recovery rate: 1.000 -> 1.200
Forward Sprint speed: 5.000 -> 5.500 (same as vanilla now)

1.1.16

Minor update to description to include detail about how the mod lowers the overweight movement speed penalty

"-Due to lower speeds, overweight speed penalty is reduced so heavier loadouts are not crippled."

1.1.15

Uploaded new banner.

1.1.14

Name changed: Sunshine's Realism Movement is now known as "Sunshine's Tactical Infantry Movement System (TIMS)"

Description updated, expounding upon the design philosophy to help server owners et al understand what makes this movement mod so different from others.

1.1.13

Overencumbrance speed multiplier: 0.5 ->0.8
As speeds are already very slow, this means being overencumbered will not be nearly as severe or unplayable.

Airspeed co-efficient increased slightly, meaning the slowing effect of the character jumping is very slightly less.
(previously: x0.7; now: x0.8 ((in vanilla this is x1.0)))

1.1.12

Stamina regen rate: 0.0800 -> 0.1000

1.1.11

Prone collider shape restorted to "box" (mistakenly changed to capsule).

1.1.10

Stamina settings tweaked:

Run stamina drain slightly reduced again (now 50% of vanilla)
Sprint stamina drain slightly reduced again (now 50% of vanilla)
Stamina recovery speed marginally increased over vanilla rate (0.7 ->0.8)

This is currently being tested on my server and may be likely to change. The current method may be kept; alternatively stamina drain will be made more punitive again, but stamina recovery much more punctual. To be decided...

1.1.9

Reduced stamina drain a little farther to compensate for reduced speeds (particularly when using my weapon-state based movement mod as this lowers max sprint speed with weapons out). 

Running stamina drain is now reduced by 25% of vanilla factor.
Sprinting stamina drain is reduced by of 37.5% of vanilla factor.

1.1.8

Incremental increase to step up height once again. Restores some ability to scale camo netting, but still extremely slow to do so.

1.1.7

Step up height slightly increased to prevent characters being stuck on certain steps. Ability to scale netting is still quite difficult or impossible in most cases.

1.1.6

Character will no longer be slowed quite so much when reaching the top of stairs.

Characters now receive no speed boost when descending slopes/stairs.

Jumping will reduce character's mid-air/flight speed by 20%

Reduced step up height, meaning:
-No more walking over camo-nets
-No longer be able to walk right over interior objects like chairs, sofas, boxes and other low height props. 
-This will prevent sudden erratic height changes that can make interior PvP in particular look a bit silly, but also exterior fights around rocky terrain with many objects to step over.

1.1.5

Lean speed further decreased from 2.5 -> 2.2.

1.1.4
