New Features:

Dropping of Live Ordinance

• If a player is holding the "Fire" button for throwables (Grenades, Flashbangs, Smoke) at the time of death; they will drop a "live" weapon that will detonate

• Behavior of the dropped "live" throwable will have the same timing, behavior, effects, and potential point counts as its thrown version

Completely New Damage Indication Framework:

• New framework gives better indication of when a player is hit and from what direction

• Visually improved indicator graphics

• Expanded to also provide indication of nearby grenades

Custom reload animation sequence for shotguns:

• Shotguns now reload on a shell by shell basis instead of the former "magazine" system used by clip based weapons

• Animation sets and framework implemented to more accurately reflect this weapon's loading style

• NOTE: Character is not allowed to move while reloading in prone because of.... reality!

Jump 2 Climb (J2C) Vaulting:

Expanded the Jump to Climb implementation to now accommodate obstacles at various heights ranging from ~mid-thigh and higher

Animations added for: o Vaulting over short/thin obstacles such as half walls o Vaulting onto areas slightly higher than can be jumped on (Factory Shipping Docks for example) -requires a surface on which a player can stand or will fall off o Jump and climbing to obstacles at "mid-height" from vaulting to the current J2C level o J2C actions are still automated by hitting the "jump" key while moving in the direction of the obstacle.
o J2C can now also be initiated while moving sideways or diagonally (forward) near the obstacle. o NOTE: Players can "jump in place" when near a climbable object without initiating a climb
