@AluminumHaste Could you please make a new build? (Should be the last one.)
I've updated the patch to fix a bug when auto-search bodies is enabled and delay is 0, and I removed the "tdm_frobhold_drag_body_behavior" cvar.
After talking with a player on Discord, I changed the default delay to 200ms. Seems like that will also work well with your preference of 250ms.
Pros of 200ms:
- Dragging a body doesn't feel sluggish.
- Putting out a candle is pretty fast.
Cons of 200ms:
- New players might make a mistake (at first or without some practice). But will probably be ok.
I think using 200ms, which I know is good, is better than going with my original assumption. If players have trouble during dev or beta, it can be changed back to 300ms. Better that I go with data than assumptions.

I usually prefer 250ms, 1/4 of a second, but some players with slower reflexes might have a harder time. Just try it as is to see what people think

After some feedback, I changed the candles and lantern behavior to pick up on frob and extinguish on long-press frob.
Candle holders without candles required a long-press frob to pick up. That didn't feel right.
Pros of this change:
- More consistent: frob always picks up items, candles, and bodies.
- Long-press acts like a special action: drag for bodies, extinguish for candles.
- Bonus: long-press frob to extinguish feels like pinching out a candle.
@AluminumHaste Could you please update the build again?

I've never done that with limbs, just items. Do you regularly do that? Does anyone?
For example, you can't get bodies in places like this without pushing the held limbs away.

I can also drop the body with Use key.
I can also drop the body with Drop key
Also, when picking up and dropping bodies over and over again, it's supposed to flip the body over. Now it's flipping AND rotating the body 180 degrees

That shouldn't be the case. I wonder if it is the right binary?
lol. No worries. So, are you saying I can remove the cvar?

I've updated the patch (same link as before):
https://gist.github.com/daftmugi/41d0324107e8734f364bb3e50ff00794Added "tdm_frobhold_drag_body_behavior" cvar:
"tdm_frobhold_drag_body_behavior", default:"1" Which drag body behavior? 1 --- on frob key up, drop body (limb). 0 --- on second frob, drop body (limb), TDM v2.11 (and prior) behavior.
Added drop body on second frob, while allowing frob on doors, switches, etc.
(Not thoroughly tested, but it seems to be working as intended.)Could you please update the build?

Weird, when I tried applying the patch, 2 items failed.
SysCvar.cpp and Player.cpp.
Says rejected patch hunks
-
Not sure lol

Yes, allll the time. Have you ever shoved a body under a table/bed/shelf to hide it? You can't really do it without scroll wheel.
It works with ANYTHING in the grabber.

I think personally I prefer this to requiring another input to stop dragging - at least in the usual loop of shouldering a body to move it roughly where it needs to go and then using manipulate to tuck it in.
The click and release made it very quick to move individual limbs.
But yeah like lots of these types of things a "toggle" mode should be an option
True, however, you can push limbs away from you, or pull them closer with the scroll wheel.
Doing that while holding down the right mouse button was very painful.
-
Nope, quick click "Frob" to shoulder body.
-
Well a short click picks the body back up on your shoulders. So it should be a long press to "grab" the joint/limb just like picking up a candle. However, I have to continuously hold "frob" to not let go of the joint/limb.
-
Ok the candles work well and I think I can get used to them.
However, when long pressing a body to manipulate the limbs, you have to continuously hold down frob button.
Also, you Frob to pick up the body, but you Use key to drop the body.

Though I would suggest that you open a feature request bug tracker (bugs.thedarkmod.com) and post this patch there, just so devs can be notified if they don't see this thread,

Yeah, you need to be on 2.12 beta for this to work.
