Switch between Fully Automatic and Semi Automatic

I don’t know how accurate it’d be but when I was firing at a camera with an SMG I had wished there were a way to fire a single shot instead of the 2 or 3 that will come out no matter how fast you tap the button/key to fire.

Then I thought of the button/key that’s used for the steady aim (it narrows the crosshairs or momentarily slows time when held). Then wondered why it couldn’t be used for this type of action.

Besides, I’m pretty sure there aren’t any machine guns that need slightly more accurate aiming or time to slow down when aiming. So why not use it for a single shot on the guns that normally rapid-fire when the triggers are pulled?

Then again, I’m no gun expert. So such a feature might not work or be true to real life. :confused: But at any rate - I think it would be a nice QoL improvement.

Now whether or not it should be for just one shot or be a toggle… :thinking:

Because it would be OP and make the ballers obsolete.

Theres a reason why guards are curious when they hear a shot but freak out when they hear multiples.

I’ve been wanting this feature (either added by IO or as a mod) for a long time now. IMO it’d make the game more realistic and give SMGs and automatic rifles more utility. But so far, nothing from IO on that front (not that I expected anything) and only 1-2 mod makers seem to be willing to take it on (not to mention that one semi-auto rifles/SMGs mod still restricts you to 2-3 round bursts instead of true semi-auto).
