Stop all animations key

[prinyo]

Is there a way to assign a key as a shortcut to the functionality Stop all animations that is found on the debug page of the MCM menu of SL?

On the hotkeys page there is something that, according to the description, is supposed to do that, but it only stops the animation for 7 seconds.

Also it seems when I use "o" to switch to the next animation the timer is canceled and the sex scene lasts forever and the only way to stop it is by going to the debug page in MCM and using the same function.

By default hitting End will stop an animation that the PC is involved in or one that the player is controlling.

 

You can use N on an animating actor to take control of an animation.

So no Stop all animations key :-(

I hope this gets added.

What...

Yes there is.

Sailing Rebel said it's the end key and they're correct.

You know

This key.

 

Ending ALL animations isn't possible, but who the hell is playing 70 animations at once? Just go through them all one by one

End does nothing in my game.

I guess this is the key mapped by default to the "Stop animating" option.

I did something stupid when first setting it up - I assigned one and the same key to Stop animating and Move animation. I fixed this now but pressing the Stop key simply restarts the sex scene. So I still need to open the MCM menu, scroll to SL and then go to the debug page and click Stop all animations.

 

I also tried pressing N, took control over the animation and when it ended I never got control back, I was left in a free camera mode, so I had to load an earlier save.

It is a question of convenience really. 

Stop all animations hotkey is essential if you have mods like Random sex, Oral only and such and you don't want to constantly tweak them while playing - enable/disable followers every 10 minutes, change the scan frequency and so on. 

Some people for example are conditioned to disable such mods before going into dungeons but constantly tweaking mods is annoying and I often forget to do it. But even if I do not forget I still want the chance that the random bandits are having sex unsuspecting of my arrival while keeping myself and the followers a-sexual at that time (we know we are going into a fight, but the bandits still do not) . 

 

In short, a kill-all-anims hotkey is the only way to get as close as possible to some immersion while using random sex mods. It is a simple way to say "not now" when it is needed without having to constantly think about which mods you need to tweak all the time.
