No More Light Stagger

Description
Disables light stagger animations. This prevents low damage hits from interrupting attack/block/movement animations.

This is especially useful for balancing crossbows (which often deal 0 damage but stagger regardless) or when using increased attack slots.

Heavy stagger animations still apply based on damage and toughness.

==============

Update 5/29/24:

For anyone who wants to disable stagger animations for another mod, the modding tool makes this really straightforward.

- Open FCS from the Kenshi launch menu. You can see all the mods you have installed in a list.
- Locate the mod you want to change, such as More Combat Animations. Open this mod.
- On the top menu there is a button that says [Changes], if you click this it creates a popup with everything the mod adds. All the new animations will be in a list. Locate the stagger animations you want to disable.
- If you're not sure if its a light stagger, scroll to the section labeled in bold "stumble". If "chance" is above 0 then its a stagger animation. If it says "big stumble" TRUE then its a heavy and you can leave it. If it says "big stumble" FALSE then its a light stagger.
- Once you've identified a stagger animation you want to disable, you can scroll up to the bold "general" section and set "disabled" to TRUE.
- Remember to SAVE changes to the mod.

I found out how to fix the stagger animations! Load the mod you want in the FCS, open the tab called EVERYTHING, and search for and then open GLOBAL CONSTANTS. Then change "Stumble Damage Max" to 100-300. That's the amount of damage needed at max toughness to cause you to stumble and that controls if a light hit causes you to stagger.

yeah, never liked how guys will get hit with a toothpick for 0 damage and be staggered as if they just got mauled by a bear

Having the same problem as Tamm and T.YN. I think the patch guide for MCA isn't up to date anymore.

I'm having the same problem as Tamm. The Change List for MCA, as well as some other animation mods I have, only show Combat Techniques instead of Animations. These files/items also don't match the data format in the guide, and lack a "stumble" section.

For anyone who follows the guide below make sure you save your changes to the animation mod. You can also package your changes into a new mod with a dependency on the base animation mod but there are a few extra steps involved.
