After assigning a hotkey to "raise weapon", it seems that performing a "raise weapon" action fails, because the animation show the player char. raise his weapon but also that the weapon is lowered immediately after, making it impossible for the player to raise his weapon.
Note: The raising of a weapon can be down with prim. mouse button (the default) and by default there is no hotkey assigned afaik to the "raise weapon" command.
After writing this report, I see that it is possible to hold down the hotkey for "raise weapon" to have the player char. raise his weapon for as long as the hotkey is "on press". It seem also possible to lower the weapon in the same fashion.
Please close this report.
I have misunderstood the use of the "raise weapon" and confused it with the default raising of a weapon when using the primary mouse button (after having toggled raise weapon).
