Emote Modifiers and Deskmods Lack Explanation

[Crystalwarrior]

Prompted by this conversation:

Explanations can come in tl;dr form from here: https://github.com/AttorneyOnline/docs/blob/master/docs/development/network.md#in-character-message

Relevant info from the docs (with slight corrections from memory, signified by stricken text):

• desk_mod: Whether or not to override desk appearance.

  • -1: Positions "def", "pro", and "wit" default to desk and the positions "hld", "hlp" and "jud" to no desk.
  • 0: desk is hidden
  • 1: desk is shown
  • 2: desk is hidden during preanim, shown when it ends
  • 3: desk is shown during preanim, hidden when it ends
  • 4: desk is hidden during preanim, character is centered and pairing is ignored, when it ends desk is shown and pairing is restored
  • 5: desk is shown during preanim, when it ends character is centered and pairing is ignored

• emote_modifier: A number that dictates emote behavior:

  • 0: do not play preanimation; overridden to 2 by a non-0 objection modifier
  • 1: play preanimation (and sfx)
  • 2: play preanimation and play objection
  • 3: unused
  • 4: unused
  • 5: no preanimation and zoom
  • 6: objection and zoom, no preanim preanim and zoom

So, to condense it into the dropdown:

modifier:

• 0 idle
• 1 preanim
• 5 zoom
• 6 preanim zoom

deskmod:

• -1 benches
• 0 no desk
• 1 show desk
• 2 show desk only on idle
• 3 show desk only on preanim
• 4 no desk and no pair only on preanim
• 5 show desk and no pair

Yeah- While this is super convenient, Qt really fucking hates it.
Will need to do some annoying hardcoded table information to make this work.

If we drop chat I will add it literally this night.
