I don't know if I understand the point of this, the demonstration isn't really clear on what is going on, and I'm looking at this 0.35 and wondering what the hell it is for. Maybe I just haven't had enough coffee yet.
Looking at the cheat sheet provided, it makes me wonder if we should be using a more elastic easing method.

In a codebase fairly devoid of comments where concise code is prioritized, having the same comment twice that takes up its own line is kind of a waste of space.

Should probably be a variable then 👍 |
Asymptoptic (ease-out) smoothing is now used instead of linear interpolation. This kind of smoothing is often used for camera crouching animations in modern FPS games.

What's the status on this PR? I see no problems with this, other than the previously mentioned issue not being addressed. |

Make this a game variable as requested

Asymptoptic (ease-out) smoothing is now used instead of linear interpolation. This kind of smoothing is often used for camera crouching animations in modern FPS games (see Doom 3 or Xonotic for examples).
This smoothing has been tested to be FPS-independent. It works well in all common situations (crouching/uncrouching, moving while crouching, crouchsliding).
In the future, a similar kind of smoothing can be used for things such as the first-person model animation when crouchsliding, weapon scope FOV changes, etc.
