== Holster Concepts ==
A holstered or sheathed weapon is a visual indicator that your character is armed and ready for combat.

The holster works by turning invisible on a "draw" command, and turning visible again when the weapon is holstered or sheathed.

Players can draw weapons from a holster or sheathe to begin combat, or sheathe/holster weapons to withdraw from combat.

== Setting Up Myriad Lite Holster ==
# Create an object to act as a wearable holster for a firearm or a sheathe for a melee weapon.
# Drag and Drop the Myriad Lite Holster script from inventory into the holster object
# Attach the object to the desired attachment point.
# Adjust the position and rotation.
# Detach the object back to inventory to "save" the new default attach point.
# Attach or wear the holster when desired.

== Quickstart for Players ==
* (required) Wear the Myriad Lite HUD.
* (optional) Wear the hovertext meter
* (optional) Wear armor, which you should see reported in your chat window.
* (optional) Wear a holster
* (optional) Wear a melee or ranged combat weapon

== Commands ==
Myriad Lite accepts a variety of chat commands on channel 5.

/5 <command> will activate that command.

Scripters can also send the same commands as a link message.

Custom HUDs can be constructed with buttons named each command, and the button will activate the command of the same name

== Close Combat: Melee Weapons ==
For melee weapon (knife, sword, club, etc)

Wear the melee weapon, which disables fist fighter mode if active

NOTE: The melee weapon is invisible when first attached, as if it is "sheathed".

Say /5 drawright or /5 drawleft in main chat to draw the weapon.

In mouselook or third person view, press left mouse button to trigger the weapon's attack.

== Ranged Combat: Firearms ==
Wear a firearm with a Myriad bullet in it.

NOTE: The melee weapon is invisible when first attached, as if it is "sheathed".

Say /5 drawright or /5 drawleft in main chat to draw the weapon.

Go into mouselook for first person view

Aim.

Press left mouse button to fire.

Ranged combat does not work in third-person view.

/5 checkammo will show ammo count remaining.

/5 reload will reload ammo
