I do like it, (and the door angle!) but in interests of Early Access I should point out that you still clip through walls if your fixing yourself up next to one.
Maybe force a turn, or a head lean. You've got the short stock mechanic, can it be adapted somehow?

Re: New wounded camera
Force turn:
Instead of letting a player clip through a wall, have his position turned (so 45-90 degrees) to force enough clearance so that his motions don't go through the wall.
Head lean:
Helmet resting against wall, so would be slightly leaned forward to keep bandaging motions far enough away from wall to disallow clipping through.
They are just throwaway suggestions, I was just wondering out loud if the short stock mechanic could be adapted to certain body points to cause enough of a position shift to keep player form phasing through during the animation.
Cuz right or wrong, when I'm hurt I hug the nearest cover and get as close to it as I can. I'm trying to remember to turn myself, but don't always succeed in the heat of the moment.

Re: New wounded camera
Thanks for this, filed. We addressed some cases in which players clipped through walls when leaning, and we'll take another look at wound checking.filed.teeth wrote: ↑Tue May 07, 2024 6:31 am Force turn:

Do you have references of other games using force turn and head lean? We've moved away from aggressively "forcing" player characters into/out of positions (ie, our previous interact system), but there may be something for us here.

Re: New wounded camera
No references, just the first thing that popped into my head after I popped through a wall.
