ETRFC - Exit Terminals Ready For Combat

~~~Update~~~

Updated for NextGen. Recompiled scripts and repacked into new ba2 archive.

Now handles entering/exiting Vertibirds properly.

Now registers with the Canary Save File Monitor (optional).

Detection and speed upgrade:

detection of drawing weapons or going into sneak mode is near-instant

detection of sheathing weapons or going out of sneak mode has a 10-second delay - this is because of the game animations sometimes having to "hunt" for a way to get into terminals and power armor (unavoidable, sorry - Power Armor is the real problem, slow as a slug)

better detection and dealing with Power Armor

slowed returning to last-known "ready state" upon exiting furniture/power armor/terminals/workbenches (0. 7 second, seems to be about the safe limit)

handles swimming

~~~Basics~~~

When you exit the Pipboy, you go straight back into the state you were in when you entered it. (Sneaking, weapons drawn, etc.) When you exit a terminal, you stand up like an idiot - with no weapons in your hands. (Double-idiot.)

This mod puts you back into the same state you were in when you got into the terminal. (Now includes: furniture, power armor, and workbenches.) Examples:

standing, no weapon

standing, weapon

sneaking, no weapon

sneaking, weapon

~~~Power Armor~~~

when putting a fusion core into the power armor

when entering the power armor

when exiting the power armor

~~~Honorable Mentions~~~

damanding/crayonkit, who made me start thinking about terminals

kinggath, who gave a couple of hints that helped me along

Scrivener07, a huge help with animation events

KernalsEgg, helped with detecting swimming

Sacremas, for testing the swimming version and other bugs

~~~Known Issues~~~

When entering furniture/power armor/terminals/workbenches (especially Power Armor and Terminals) it can take a while for the game to "hunt" how to enter. You know what I mean: your character viewpoint goes side-to-side a few times before you get put into the terminal. This is a basic game engine/animation issue.

To cater for this there is a 10-second detection delay upon leaving sneak mode or putting away your weapon. If you go into furniture/power armor/terminals/workbenches during that time, the mod may still think that you were in sneak mode or had your weapon drawn. When you come out it puts you back into the sneak/weapons state that it thinks you had.

At present I don't know how to deal with that. If you have a solution - awesome! Let me know!
