So, in order...

I processed quite a lot of feedback regarding interaction with items, their use and general navigation through the GUI, somehow related to items or actions, and came to the conclusion that their implementation is not entirely successful, and sometimes inconvenient.

I did not reinvent the wheel and moved on to more obvious things that had already been invented for me, which ultimately greatly simplified some things that previously seemed complex, incomprehensible and clumsy...

Radial quick access panel :

The model of communication between the game character and the items and their use has been completely redesigned. The previous quick access panel had good expandability and functionality, but was too inconvenient in terms of its use. A solution was needed that would fix this problem... Let me introduce you to the new quick access panel:

It is a classic radial menu that contains items, objects and actions. The panel is automatically completed and all you need is to simply hover the cursor over the desired item to pick it up.

The panel automatically divides items into tabs, for example, first comes the "Devices" category, which contains weapons, traps, hooks, a device for carrying, furniture for the hostage, etc. Next come bondage items, and then the action tab. Since there may be too many items, the panel creates additional tabs with items if the others are already full.

 Item Usage Context Slider :

Added a slider panel that clearly displays a list of available contexts for using an item. The panel is automatically displayed when changing the context, and also closes when you have made your choice. The panel will not be displayed if the item has only one context of use.

 Special Actions Panel :

Added a special actions panel. This panel is an extension of the gameplay tasks on which all items and actions are built. The panel provides quick access to the execution of logic embedded in a certain item or action, which usually require that you hold them in your hands.

For example, you can create a knot on a hook by pressing one button, without using a leash. In the same way, you can take an item immediately in your hands, without unnecessary actions.

Available actions are displayed in the lower right panel when you point the camera at a character, item or object that supports these actions. Depending on the conditions, the available actions in the panel can change dynamically.

Installation Rules Panel :

The panel with rules for building or installing objects has been updated. The control help panel has been moved to the bottom context menu, and the rules panel has been moved to the right corner in the center.

Common Item Action :

The field with context actions of the item in hand has been updated. Now the field displays all available actions for managing the item or action, and not just "Apply" and "Remove".

Items with nested construction :

• The sonar is activated automatically when you select this action in the radial menu.

• The crossbow no longer requires additional activation to be picked up. It is called automatically when you select it in the radial menu or pick it up through the special actions panel.

Buildings and installations :

• Re-installation or construction of objects is called automatically after placement. This allows for continuity when installing multiple objects of the same type (No more need to re-select an object in the menu after installing it).

Additional logic components of prepared items :

An item picked up creates a component that performs additional logic if required.

• Decoy's effect displays the radius over which the effect extends.

Notification center :

• The notification center has been updated. It is now located just above the context panel and its maximum capacity has been reduced to 1 element. This freed up a lot of screen space, and now notifications are always in front of your eyes.

Fonts :

• Updated base font in all widgets.

• Updated the font of all "Common" elements (Keyboard Input Hints).

Visual :

Added HDRi maps for all available scenes. This improves global illumination, as real-time environment capture does not provide an accurate result.

Camera State Machine :

• Changed default camera angle.

• Changed angle while using an item.

• Changed angle while sprinting.

• Added angle for standing while bound.

• Added angle for kneeling while bound.

• Added angle for sitting while bound.

• Added angle for lying while bound.

Dummy weapon :

The new component displays a dummy weapon on the back if it is in the inventory.

The dummy is automatically hidden when the weapon is equipped or in other situations when it is obviously in the way.

Other changes : 

• Descriptions of some items have been changed.

• Descriptions of items have been added where they were not there.

• Crossbow stacks in the inventory and radial menu.

• Binoculars stack in the inventory and radial menu.

• Carrying device stacks in the inventory and radial menu.

• The "Devices" section has been added to the player panel in the storage tab. It contains all basic items, as well as furniture for hostages.

• The "Consumables" section has been added to the player panel in the storage tab.

• The "Actions" tab has been removed from the player panel.

• The "Emotions" tab has been removed from the player panel.

• Cosmetic update to the action execution progress field.

• Cosmetic update to the panel in weapon mode.

• The notification panel is now available on the CaptiveHUD canvas.

• The "Turn Around" and "Turn Around (Half)" actions have been removed from the plan.

• The "Sit / Stand" action included in the "Crouch" action has been added to the special actions panel. The action can be applied if the character's legs are tied.

• The "Create / Delete Knot" action included in the "Leash" action has been added to the special actions panel. When hovering over the character, the action will be added automatically if the character has a collar. Stationary and dynamic hooks for tying have built-in support for this action.

• The "Put In Hand" action has been added to the special actions panel. To quickly access the action, point the camera at an item or object that supports this action.

• Emotions have been removed from the plan.
