Description
What is it?
Ragdoll Mover is a tool that allows you to move ragdolls in a similar way to 3D programs. This also includes IK chains.

Why should I use it?
If you are fine with physgun, then maybe you don't need to use this. But here's a few key features of why you might want to use this in certain situations:
-You can move ragdolls without limitations from the ragdoll physics; you can twist the ragdoll's head upside down without problems.
-When you rotate a bone, it's child bones will rotate with it. So you can rotate the ragdoll's arm like you've welded the lower arm and hand to the upper arm. (Except, as mentioned, without physical limitations.)
-By moving the ragdoll's root bone (usually the pelvis), you can move the entire ragdoll like it's a statue!
-Contrary to bones moving relatively to their parent bones, there's IK chains. IK chains are used to keep certain bones in an exact position while moving, for example, the rest of the body. This is most commonly used with legs and arms.

I'm still confused
Then watch the video! It might clear things up.

Are you going to keep updating this?
Current version of the tool seems to be doing most of the things I'd like it to do, but in case of any bugs showing up, those would be fixed up.

If any bugs occur, report them here.

Or, you can report them here: https://github.com/Winded/RagdollMover/issues

There's also a possibility to translate Ragdoll Mover through GMod's resource files, in case if you'd like to help translate the tool in your language, you can help! You can fork ragdoll mover github repo and then add translations there. If you submit a pull request, write either here or contact PenolAkushari to check and update it to the workshop.

@Zerhuskly so, how can I do that its really annoying that problem
💣WALUIGI WARE💣 7 Sep @ 2:01pm 
I don't know if I'm the only one, but when I try to select a bone, and then try to set the rotation mode (that is, those rings like the ones you see in the thumbnail) it only changes to increase the size or to move from one side to the other, severely limiting me from positioning the ragdolls as I want, is this a configuration problem?...because I already tried with other ragdolls and the same problem occurs...

same here dude
Zerhuskly 1 Sep @ 10:42pm 
I don't know what happened but the rings and arrows are no longer lining up with ragdolls. They appear up and to the left yet act like they are still on top of the model. I can hover my cursor over where an arrow should be and it will highlight on the off center ui, making it very difficult to use.

not really, whereas that is a factor, ragdoll mover also has some sins that drop performance that may be even more noticeable on maps with a lot of stuff going on + update rate option being set low. so currently to help with that "tool update rate" would have to be set a bit higher to call its functions less in a given moment of time
