[b][color=#ffff00][size=5]DOCTRINE WRIST HOLSTER[/size][/color][/b][/center]
[center][b][color=#cc0000]Version 2.0.0
"THE HEIST" SMUGGLER![/color]
[/b]
A standalone concealed-pistol cyberware for the Hands slot.

[b]/!\ Mutually exclusive with Doctrine Wrist Sheath:[/b] Both standalone mods can be installed together without conflict, but only one of these two cyberwares can be equipped at the same time.

Link a real pistol from your inventory, conceal it inside the implant and draw it directly from your cyberarms without permanently occupying a standard weapon slot.

Pistols only — revolvers are not supported.

Fully localized in English and French.


[left][b][size=4]DESCRIPTION[/size][/b][/left]
[left][/left]
[left]Doctrine Wrist Holster adds the Concealed Draw Holster, a new standalone cyberware installed in the Hands slot.[/left]
[left][/left]
[left]The holster can be linked to one real pistol from V's inventory. The exact selected weapon instance is preserved, including its quality, statistics, modifications and attachments.[/left]
[left][/left]
[left]While linked, the pistol is concealed by the implant and removed from the normal inventory, equipment and vendor interfaces.[/left]
[left][/left]
[left]While Fists, Gorilla Arms, Mantis Blades or Monowire are active, press the Reload input to draw the linked pistol directly into V's hand.[/left]
[left][/left]
[left]On keyboard, the default input is R.[/left]
[left][/left]
[left]Reload was deliberately selected because this input has no normal function while Fists or these arm cyberwares are active. Doctrine Wrist Holster therefore reuses an otherwise unused input instead of requiring an additional keybind.[/left]
[left][/left]
[left]Once the linked pistol is active, the Reload input immediately returns to its normal function and can be used to reload the weapon.[/left]
[left][/left]
[left]The linked pistol does not permanently occupy one of V's three standard weapon slots. When V switches away from it, the weapon remains linked to the holster and can be drawn again whenever needed.[/left]
[left][/left]
[left]Doctrine Wrist Holster accepts pistols only. Revolvers are excluded and remain a separate weapon category.[/left]
[left][/left]
[left][/left]
[left][color=#cc0000][size=4][b]/!\ PERSISTENT HIDDEN WEAPON STORAGE[/b] [/size][/color][/left]
[left][/left]
[left]Version 2.0 introduces persistent hidden storage for the linked handgun. [/left]
[left][/left]
[left]Once linked, the exact handgun instance is transferred out of V's normal inventory and stored persistently by the Concealed Draw Holster. The weapon is never cloned or recreated. Its exact ItemID, Tier, statistics, modifications and attachments are preserved. [/left]
[left][/left]
[left]Drawing the handgun transfers that same instance back to V. Concealing it again returns it to the holster's hidden storage. [/left]
[left][/left]
[left][b]IMPORTANT — THE LINKED HANDGUN REMAINS STORED IN THE HOLSTER EVEN WHEN THE CYBERWARE IS UNEQUIPPED.[/b][/left]
[left][b]IMPORTANT — UNLINK THE HANDGUN BEFORE SWAPPING OR REMOVING THE HOLSTER IF YOU WANT IT RETURNED TO V'S INVENTORY.[/b] [/left]
[left][/left]
[left]Re-equipping the same Concealed Draw Holster restores access to the handgun that was left linked to it. [/left]
[left][/left]
[left][/left]
[left][size=4][b]RECENT IMPROVEMENTS AND PLAYER-REQUESTED FEATURES[/b][/size][/left]
[left][/left]
[left][b]Contextual interactions take priority over Doctrine inputs[/b][/left]
[left][/left]
[left]When the Reload input is being used by an active contextual interaction, that interaction takes priority over the holster.[/left]
[left][/left]
[left]This prevents Doctrine Wrist Holster from interfering with actions such as Stealth Finishers or other contextual actions assigned to the same input.[/left]
[left][/left]
[left][b]Protection against vanilla mission disarm systems[/b][/left]
[left][/left]
[left]Pistols linked to the holster are excluded from the transfers performed by the vanilla security-locker and quest disarm system.[/left]
[left][/left]
[left]This is designed to allow a pistol concealed inside the cyberware to remain hidden during missions in which V's visible weapons are normally confiscated.[/left]
[left][/left]
[left]The protection specifically targets the vanilla disarm-transfer system. Individual quest implementations using completely separate mechanics may behave differently.[/left]
[left][/left]
[left][b]Optional Cutscene Weapon Swapper compatibility[/b][/left]
[left][/left]
[left]An optional compatibility bridge for Cutscene Weapon Swapper is included.[/left]
[left][/left]
[left]When Cutscene Weapon Swapper is installed, Doctrine Wrist Holster attempts to present the linked pistol as V's last-used weapon during scenes supported by that mod.[/left]
[left][/left]
[left]Cutscene Weapon Swapper remains responsible for the actual cutscene replacement. Unsupported scenes or scenes requiring a different weapon category are left unchanged.[/left]
[left][/left]
[left]Cutscene Weapon Swapper is optional and is not required for Doctrine Wrist Holster to function.[/left]
[left][/left]
[left][b]Extended Tier 5 progression[/b][/left]
[left][/left]
[left]Tier 5+ and Tier 5++ now provide genuine progression beyond the normal Tier 5 draw-speed value.[/left]

[list=1]

[left][/left]
[left]Only pistols of the same Tier as the installed holster, or a lower Tier, can be linked to it.[/left]
[left][/left]
[left]For example, a Tier 3 holster can accept Tier 1, Tier 2 or Tier 3 pistols, but cannot accept Tier 4 or Tier 5 pistols.[/left]
[left][/left]
[left]If the Projectile Launch System is installed, switch to Fists before pressing Reload to draw the linked pistol.[/left]

[left][size=4][b]FIRST LAUNCH AND RIPPERDOC STOCKS[/b][/size][/left]
[left][/left]
[left]After installing Doctrine Wrist Holster and loading your save, wait approximately 24 in-game hours for ripperdoc inventories to refresh.[/left]

[left][/left]
[left]Doctrine Wrist Holster and Doctrine Wrist Sheath are alternative Hands cyberware options.[/left]
