The 'state' of an actor is broken down into 3 characteristics.

Action State:

Action State Table

Locomotion State:

Locomotion State Table

Posture State:

Posture State Table


These states all work in parallel with each other. This means that one of the state types can effect all of the states. If a player has a Locomotion State of 'Dead' | 20 then the player is unable to transition into any other state such as combat, peace, cover, etc. This allows a very clear set of rules that can be applied for the actor.
