Food and drink system

[minerva]

Can it be made so that one can eat and drink while seated, without the character popping up?

  I don't think so. If you notice when you're sitting, you have that little Icon in the top left corner of your screen that means you're in the process of doing something, or are waiting to do something. Drinking water would create another action that would get put behind your sitting and you wouldn't be able to do it until you got up. At least I'm pretty sure that's how it works.

Actually, ZV, that "in process" icon at the top left only applies when you are sitting in a chair, not when sitting on the ground.

There is a "sit and drink" animation, so that one might be possible.  As for eating...well, there's really no animation at all except for the "use unique power" animation.

Of course, this may be one of those deals where the Bioware engine has that thrusting hand motion hard-coded, which effectively breaks the animation you're currently on (i.e. sitting).  *shrugs*
