Read AND Walk! At the same time!

Yes! Read the latest books in metalworking while headed to the kitchen for that morning cereal. We can put it back in the shelf later on...

Sit, Relax and Literature!

Spare some time for literature? Gather the power of focus and relaxation while sitting on your finest couch and read faster! The creaking wood floorboard is all you need to be honest.

All you can read!

Picture this: you just died (awful, I know), and now you got to read all the books in storage for those sweet recipes and exp boosts. Don't just go and read one by one...! Select all books/magazines you want and read them all at once! Go crazy!

Select your literature, sit and read combo

Forgot to sit? Before selecting your books? No problem at all! We got you covered with a context button to sit then read your selection. Reading has never been made this easy!

Sit mid-read! We got you!

Started reading without sitting? Are you really goona wait that long STANDING? Normally, if you sit while reading, your character will stop the action, but not anymore—they don't! Start reading, then sit, and your character will pick up right where they left off; they will even continue to read the literature you previously selected! This is the future, alright!

• Select multiple books/magazines to read automatically - make a selection of books in your inventory or a container, right-click, and click "Read Selected Books", the character will start picking one at a time, read it, and put it back in the container.
• Sit and read selection button - Make your selection and click this to automatically sit, then start reading.
• Sit mid-read and the character will continue reading - They will go back to reading the entire selection you made or the single book you were reading.

Let me know how bad I did, and how good you wanted it to be in the comments.

Also, let me know if you find any bugs, besides the ones listed above.

This mod was inspired by "Read While Walking" and "Read Faster When Sitting", and it's the first mod I ever created for any game ever! I wanted these functionalities to play locally, but why not upload it?! I kinda reached what I intended with this mod, I might come back to implement more stuff, but I may not fix it if a future PZ API update breaks anything.
