Completed Handcuffs bugs movement for suspects

[RedMan]

When you have a handcuffed individual and you release them (not remove their restraints), it will soft lock their character which prevents them from moving in any shape or form. This also breaks the handcuffed animation for the arrested individual. The temporary fix for this issue is to simply remove the restrains when it is deemed convenient and handcuff them again in order to allow them to walk again.

I had a talk and I found out that the handcuffs have two modes - 'hard' and 'soft'. The setting determines whether the escorted individual has the ability to walk or not. This can be done by right clicking the handcuffs. The animation breaking is likely associated with the individual being put in a vehicle before being escorted out of it, but I digress. The main annoying issue has been resolved through what appears to be a misunderstanding on my part.
