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.

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.

Would you be willing to make a patch for the "great animations mod", it seems to introduce a bunch of light staggers that are a great annoyance when fighting outnumbered.
