Grab/Pull/Push and You
Posted: Sun Nov 14, 2010 1:04 pm
I have multiple suggestions here that are all based on one topic, manipulating objects without using the standard push/pull with force powers. This would be good for guests or accounts that just plain don't have force powers to do these things.
Grabbing
Basically a command that you could bind to a key which would pick up objects that are small enough to be picked up. The average small green crate would be something you could pick up using this. But to add more realism you cant just pick it up while standing so crouch, press the button, and you pick up the object to walk around with. Perhaps a matching animation that looks like you're holding it in front of you.
Pushing/Pulling
Almost like grabbing but you don't lift objects off the ground, you just slide them around using this command (obviously). I always thought this would be nice instead of people kicking boxes around with your feet.
Player Grabbing
This would be a consent kind of command, one player would allow consent of being grabbed and the other would simply use the command. If you've ever played splinter cell or seen someone sneak up behind a guard and pull him into a dark area to knock him out, this would be good just for that.
Weapon Pickup
This isn't like the other ones but I thought this would add some realism, instead of magically picking up items by walking over them there should be some way you have to crouch down in order to have them picked up so it doesn't look like you picked it up with your feet, not sure if this is possible though.
