Alrighty, here we go with another interation. I looked into weapon lengths (wikipedia). Let’s see:

Beretta 38A

ÃâÃÂ 94.6 cm

37.2 in

Thompson 1928

ÃâÃÂ 85.0 cm

33.5 in

Thompson M1A1

ÃâÃÂ 81.0 cm

32.0 in

MP40 (stock folded)

ÃâÃÂ 63.0 cm

24.8 in

GreaseGun (stock folded)

ÃâÃÂ 57.9 cm

22.8 in

Remington 870

128.0 cm

50.5 in

M1 Garand

110.0 cm

43.5 in

Mauser 98k

111.0 cm

43.7 in

You are right, MP40 and Grease gun are noticably smaller than the rest of two-handed guns and could be easily hidden in a jacket-type clothing. So let’s add an exception just for these two long guns, that in case of jacket type clothing they can be stored as a “pseudo short weapon” in the inventory, occupying short weapon slot and inducing movement limiting as you are suggesting.

I am yet to see if I can affect speed of movement (speed of walking, speed of running). If I can, then I would change restricting conditions on clothes and use the speed of movement as a limiters.

Also I remembered that there are much more weather presets than just those used in a freeride. So it would be wise do distinguish just a few remarkable weathers and place all ingame weathers into these categories.

Remember and bear in mind that weather restrictions are only SEMI-REALISTIC. Goal of weather restrictions is to make player wear all outfits through the game, not only coat one.
