Fixed: Does Hook-Wiggle mean help or gen-rush

There are two gesture buttons that go unused while in the dying state and hooked states.

While dying or hooked, survivors should be able to:

  • Press Gesture 1 (Point) once to caution other survivors to stay away by showing a symbol ⚠️ over their own portrait.
    • Pressing it again changes the symbol to a red x. ❌
    • Pressing it a third time resets it back to no symbol.
  • Press Gesture 2 (Beckon) once to signal other survivors to come help; again, using a symbol ⚕️.
    • Pressing it again changes the symbol to a green "all clear." ✔️
    • Pressing it a third time also resets it back to no symbol.

  • I think even just the current gestures that are in game while healthy would be cool. Just make them more exaggerated while in the dying state, and maybe a little limp or lifeless, like a slow raise of one hand to point a limp wrist and finger ahead of you and then it suddenly falls and your characters animation slowly resets, before you can use another emote.

    Maybe instead of the becon wave towards self they currently have, you reach your whole hand out or up signaling for help before it suddenly drops to the ground again

    That would be cool, but not simple.

    Rather than wait on the animation team, I'd rather only wait on the User Interface / User Experience developement and have these tools sooner.
