[outdated] IsWeaponSheathed()

IsWeaponSheathed() or events to avoid a constant check
Is this possible to return this with the API? So far, aside from trying to guess depending on situations, it's hard to get the current status of weapons, if they are sheathed or ready.

I've seen the question come back several times and I don't remember anyone finding a satisfying solution to get this value when it changes.

If not, i'd like to see it added, if possible.
Got killed too often because my cloak triggers too slow after I've looted things and forgot to unsheath but I can imagine a lot more possibilities to use this.


Edit and changed the title, I was more speaking of events SHEATH/UNSHEATH actually.

Thanks for considering it.

A matching event would also be nice.
EVENT_WEAPON_STATE_CHANGED(WeaponStateChangeReason reason)

WeaponStateChangeReason would then be one of these:
WEAPON_STATE_CHANGE_REASON_WEAPON_CHANGE - when they get drawn after equipping a different weapon
WEAPON_STATE_CHANGE_REASON_WEAPON_SWAP - when they get drawn by using weapon swap
WEAPON_STATE_CHANGE_REASON_PLAYER_DRAWN - when they are simply drawn by the player
WEAPON_STATE_CHANGE_REASON_PLAYER_SHEATHED - when they are simply sheathed by the player
WEAPON_STATE_CHANGE_REASON_OTHER_PLAYER_ABILITY - when they get drawn in response to another players ability cast

oups I didn't edit fast enough :s

thanks for translating my gibberish again

edit : it sheathes on interaction with objects too, chests skyshards etc... annoying in delves

+ WEAPON_STATE_CHANGE_REASON_INTERACTION

IsWeaponSheathed() definitely and an event.

AFAIK there isn't I looked through the source quite extensively myself and couldn't find anything relating.
