Improve Bolt-Action Reload Animations
Under considerationby Brent · 02 Sept
When a bolt-action weapon is reloaded with a live round still chambered, opening the bolt should visibly extract that round instead of ignoring it. The operator could catch and retain the cartridge before completing the reload, then return it to the weapon or store it. If the round is not retained, it should be visibly ejected and removed from the available ammunition. This would make the reload animation consistent with the weapon’s actual state and improve its realism.
