[*]Bug #25348 Soldier walking/running instead of crawling through holes

It has been so long that i have trouble believing this.

for me my AI mates with pistols or no weapons play the binocular animation very often while they dont even have a binocular.

havent tried the betas for a long time so i dont know scince which version this happens but it not happens with 1.59.

edit: looks like they use their NVG as binoculars

It has been so long that i have trouble believing this.

I just placed 2 enemy squads at opposite ends of the Factory in Chernarus at 114-079 in which I've spent many times getting frustrated with the wall passing at the south gate - they both went prone whenever by the hole now and didn't ghost run thru once -I'm astonished!!

Man I didn't even think this was fixable but holy potatoes this is a great fix! Does this mean stances can be fixed for indoor as well?

Good stuff here.

On the subject of Binoculars and Laser Marker some of the odd effects seem to be reduced but it could be better.

Shouldn't both the Binocular and Laser Marker actions be the same?

As they are now when Binoculars are raised it prevents 3rd person view from working, not the case with Laser Marker raised.

Also I think I mentioned it before and don't know if it's possible but once the riffle has been moved to the shoulder it should remain there until the Binoculars or Laser Marker has been removed from the units hand. It looks really silly watching the riffle jump to the front and back over and over.

Other animations that are still wrong.

Running animation looks like a unit has an injured leg.

Unit going prone half way through reload animation has units head and weapon going into the ground.

Parachute landing where the unit jumps 2meters into the air.

Units exiting trucks from the wrong position and higher than they should do ,the only truck that looks correct seems to be the CDF open URAL.

Also for some reason you can't put units into the rear of the US Support truck even though it has seats, not even moveincargo works.
