    Hold H to Heal

    Here is a copy pasta of the thread i've made on the steam forum :

    http://steamcommunity.com/app/298110...6486823157380/

    Can i desactivate this ****ING thing?
    Whenever you're lightly injured, it just pop and STAY on the screen, hiding all interaction.
    95% of the time i play this game, here is what i see :

    Hold H to Heal
    Hold H to Heal
    Hold H to Heal
    Hold H to Heal
    Hold H to Heal
    Hold H to Heal
    Hold H to Heal
    Hold H to Heal
    Hold H to Heal
    Hold H to Heal
    Hold H to Heal

    It's so frustrating, i just alt-f4 since i'm so sick of it. So stupid, like we are just absolute morons not noticing the red screen or looking are our health bar if we didnt disable it.

    Can it be removed? 45h in-game and too tired to endure this thing anymore, or wasting syringes to let it go.
    I didnt see it in the options. I might have missed it.

    Edit : bonus question : is there a way to deploy the wingsuit if i TAP the button and not if the button is already pushed? i tend to keep it pushed when i sprint, habit of other game where, btw, we have the choice to make it togglable or not. As a result, the character deploy wingsuit even when he walk a stair down wich is aggravating, in FC3 it was much better.

    The prompts are annoying, I agree. I think I remember how to activate wingsuit after the 50th time flying a glider. It's cool that it's there for the first time, but every single time... it's screen clutter.

    The fact that it ovveride any other action like "press E to loot" is really aggravating, meaning you're pressing the action button blindly, and more often than not you're climbing into that car nearby rather than searching the corpse, the hiboxes are messy, so without a proper indicator, you don't know what acction will trigger.

    And this stupid HOLD H TO HEAL is just the bane of interactions. i wanna remove it.

    - Removed many annoying on screen prompts that won't go away (vehicle controls, HOLD E to EXIT vehicle, HOLD Q HEAL when you are hurt, HOLD R CANCEL ARROW when you have an arrow drawn ect. etc.)

    Good mod, give it a try.

    While that is annoying for sure, the fact that you have to CLICK & HOLD the damn key is what really gets to me, sometimes, in the middle of a firefight you don't have the time to seat and wait for the thing to pop up. FC3 had it perfect, one tap on the key and you would activate whatever you need to do, whether it be opening a door or using your key to get a health shot.

    Press & hold is annoying, presumably it's to avoid unwanted actions from touching a button accidentally, I find the looting bodies annoying because of the search animation, why can't I just highlight the body & collect the loot, more often I find when in a hurry to collect from numerous bodies that I throw down my weapon & pick up another instead of the loot & have to swap it back

    I used my logitech gaming software to record me holding Q(what I use for healing) for 4 seconds. Then I mapped it to one of my mouse buttons. Now all I have to do it tap the button on my mouse and it will heal. I occasionally double tap the button and it heals me twice but I still like it because I don't have to hold down the Q key. I might do this with E too since I have a few mouse buttons unused because I don't use my DPI up and down buttons.
