How do you handcuff a player?

[Guardian_Angel]

Title.

1. Incapacitate them in some way (for example by stunning)
2. Grab them
3. Move the handcuffs into their inventory and equip them

The handcuffs are admittedly quite confusing to use at the moment and I think we'll need to do some rethinking on how they work. Another big issue is that it's way too easy to put them on by accident - it's funny the first time it happens, but it gets annoying really fast.

I see now. Thanks ever so much for the swift response!

What do you mean "and equip them"? There's no hand slot to put them in and double-clicking them just put them back in my inventory. Do I have to press a key?

Lol... you just click once, don’t double click everything... du-uh.

There's a... this grey rectangle above all of the equipable stuff. Just move the handcuffs into other player's inventory and then press that rectangle, it will turn green, which means that the handcuffs have been successfully equipped.

You ever gonna fix it or 5 years on is a simple Interaction key while equipping the handcuffs as an item and hovering over someone with the mouse too hard?

I figured it out after having Barotrauma for 2 years in my library. It is logical to follow the same procedure the guards in outposts do. FIrst they beat the ♥♥♥♥ out of you, then they insta handcuff you because they are bots. Even going limp with Space key you will be handcuffed before you hit the ground. I like how it works but it can be a bother when you are in a hurry and the target is especially hard to keep down. Also knowing that the green thingy above the item slots is an equip button is KEY

Yeah, I don't recall ever seeing that mentioned anywhere in the game or an official tutorial (specifically for handcuffs, which are a bit of a special case in terms of items). I shouldn't have to go and hunt for this kind of information on the internet.
