Going prone should override reloading & switching weapons
Reviewed, WishlistPublic

Description

Example scenario: Your switching weapons or reloading while standing or half prone, an enemy starts shooting at you and you end up dead because you could not go prone as you were too busy reloading or switching. This action is very unrealistic and frustrating.

Related to this is that you cannot move at all if you are reloading while in prone position, at least moving should cancel the reloading. Not being able to go prone while reloading is not such big of a deal because you can still run to cover and dodge some bullets, but reloading while prone completely immobilizes, you have no other option to wait there for someone to shoot you.

I can crouch and prone while reloading but cannot stand up if reloading while prone, latest dev build.
