Suggestion Allow handcuffing of players that are standing

[RedMan]

The conditions for which allow you to handcuff players have been specifically limited to the following circumstances: the player is tased, the player is tackled, the player is surrendering (applies to certain unspecified animations) or the player is incapacitated. It would be ideal if we could handcuff players that are standing in place; players that are not moving, walking nor running. It is somewhat awkward to ask players to perform a specific emote in order to slip them into handcuffs - especially in circumstances where the player appears to be unable to move around or interact with their surrounding environment.

I understand that the recent changes have been the result of what seemed like cases of over-ambitious handcuffing or something of such degree. However, I think it is a bit inconvenient that we cannot handcuff players that show no resistance or difficulty in what otherwise appears a straightforward handcuffing opportunity given their lack of movement.

On one hand, yeah it's silly that you have to ask somebody to perform such an obvious action in order to be handcuffed but on the other hand it gives security to most players knowing that they can't be ass-handcuffed without any prior warning just because you're standing there, y'know? It at least now needs some RP for it to happen.

I think this idea could be considered once the struggle mechanics are put into the game

As it stands right now, handcuffs are so un-ruly that if I taze someone in front of me, twice, I can barely put them on. It's literally easy to just escort them once they are actually on the ground not resisting than it is handcuffing them

I believe @FreeSpy got stabbed because of it, since I could not arrest a guy I tazed thrice, cause it was greyeed out, even do he was tazed on the ground for a while

I would like if the requirements for handcuffing someone were replaced with a minigame or some quicktime event to resist the cuffs
