Version 1.3.2
Changed the "Hide" behavior setting for "When Sheathed" to also hide the shield texture when the weapon texture is being actively hidden (like, for example, by a third-person mod)
Version 1.3.1
Added a Direction option to the Animation module to configure which animations can play
DFMods containing sprites that match Mighty Meatus' Teal Elven and Purple Adamantine replacers are now available in Optional Files. Contributed by WilhelmBlack
Fixed Inertia still applying when swinging a weapon with the vanilla weapon control scheme
Added DFMod for the DFU Android port to Main Files.
Version 1.3
Added Condition-based graphics. Shields will have visible damage when at an upper and lower condition threshold that is configurable.
Added option to play a frame-by-frame animation on the shield when attacking or sheathing your weapon. Contributed by WilhelmBlack
All shield graphics (including condition variants and animation frames) have been correctly palletized by WihelmBlack.
Added a Step feature that makes the shield sprite move in steps rather than smoothly. Step distance and conditions are configurable.
Added a toggle to lock the aspect ratio of the shield texture when switching to Retro-Mode
Version 1.2
Fixed Inertia still applying while in cursor mode
Added a Bob Offset slider to adjust the timing of the bob. Will be useful to sync/desync the shield when used with weapon bob (if there is one)
Moved calculations to LateUpdate to stop them from being called multiple times per frame in OnGUI. Some sliders may feel smaller or less impactful. Will require feedback to document for future adjustments.
Version 1.1
Packaged textures into DFMOD instead of as loose files. If you have previously installed 1.0, you can now delete the ShieldWidget folder in StreamingAssets/Textures/. Or not. Idk, I'm not your dad.
Added support for DFU's Left-Handed Weapons startup option.
