How to use it
Quick Action is a HUD Widget that can be toggled and configured via the widget itself. You can toggle the widget by using X/DPadUp. This will open the first list of actions.
You can then select an action using mouse look/mouse wheel/DPadUp&DPadDown and then press the left mouse button/A to activate the action. You can also add a new action using N/Y, delete the selected action using delete/X, and change the position of the selected action using ]/BackSlash/RightStick.
When the Widget is visibile you can switch to the next list by using Z/DPadRight, add a new list by using M/LeftStick and delete the current list by using End/Back.
Known issues
The HUD stays active in dialogs and menus.* Equipping enchanted items can sometimes not work.

💡 Beginner Tips
- Since it's for OpenMW, make sure you're running the OpenMW engine, not the original Morrowind executable.
- Check the mod's forum or comments for any configuration options—the description doesn't mention them, but users might have shared tips.
- If the widget doesn't appear, verify that the mod is placed in the correct OpenMW data directory (e.g., `Data Files` folder).
