Guys, I've solved the text chat problem, no need to thank me, someone just needs to add this as a job and we're set - people without microphones could still play:

Hey, my suggestion actually made me think of another question, what's the situation for stuff like animations, e.g: pointing in a direction, dancing, laying/sitting down, etc? I just realised that to actually do a mime character you'd need a lot of animations and the like to be able to do it, so would it actually be possible and how does it work in GTA V, do we type actions, are there keybinds, if we just walk our ass up to a chair is there just an option to sit, or?

GTA V has a lot of anims built in already. I haven't touched the game in a long-ass time but I know when I did play on MP servers they had like 8-9 pages of animations you could pick from.

You’ll be able to do a shit load of animations, we’ll have a menu with emotes and ways to bind 3 or 4 of them for quick use.

Go crazy with it and allow way more binds
Hide it behind a combination of key presses to activate them, but allow as many as possible
Someone will eventually be using that many and it'll make things way cooler

no but more than 4 is needed
i'd love being able to go as far as using every key on the board heldw ith like alt or control or both so that you can really flex it
being emotive is rad

I mean having more animations and the option to use them is always good, especially if you're in a role that could really utilise them, like say, a mime.

It ain't Arma. I don't want to have to change my binds for regular GTA controls, amd overlay and my recording shit just so I don't offer a high five when I tap a hotkey. 3 or 4 binds that you can swap out animations with is all you'll need.

I'd be okay with chat commands for animations on top of the couple binds, so you can quickly type something out you don't have setup but I need binds with it

I believe in regular GTA you press B to point. I'm sure if enough people demand it they'll add sit down hotkeys to every seat in San Andreas
