This does leaning without moving you anywhere, while retaining the proper view offset, giving you realistic-er visibility because the spine actually bends, npc's still reacting to you and you being able to shoot, throw, punch from your view at any lean level. This also features Ready or Not styled controls.
Use cl_lean_bind to bind keys to lean.
Commands: cl_lean_interp_ratio - Multiplier on the spine bend interpolation sv_lean_unpredicted - Switches to an unpredicted lean method, however restores SOME functionality of other mods that change the view offset. sv_lean_amount - How much to lean sv_lean_speed_general - How fast to lean in general sv_lean_speed_ron - How fast to lean using the RON controls sv_lean_debug - Shows your hitboxes sv_lean_notify - Shows in chat what bind you pressed sv_lean_allowcrouch - Allow leaning in crouch sv_lean_always_allow_leaning - Always allow leaning in whatever state you are cl_lean_auto_insights - Lean when zooming in
Compatibility: Mods that manipulate the view offset in any way may cause weird view jittering, so be aware. Prone mod works fine though.
Known bugs: When having extreme lean values, the serverside hitboxes may spin uncontrollably. To see this issue in effect, turn up the maximum allowed lean amount, enable debug mode and developer mode, then lean till the end and move your mouse cursor. It is much less noticeable on lower lean amounts, the hitboxes just kind of... jiggle. The proper solution to this is probably making a proper animation. The less proper solution is having something like setupbones for the server side, but alas, none are possible for me at the moment.
Credits: - TFA. Even though I strayed very far from the original code, I still based everything on that. - Darsu. For auto lean in sights and some optional leaning restrictions.
