Opening the tool
There are two ways to open BUPA AnimPos:
- Type the command
/animposin chat. - Press the keybind (default F6, rebindable in the GTA V settings under Key Bindings).
On open, the script runs its checks — already-in-use, cooldown, permission, state restrictions and the Config.CanUse hook — before entering positioning mode. If any check fails, you receive a notification explaining why and the tool does not open.
While positioning is active the character is frozen and rendered semi-transparent so you can clearly see where it will land, and an on-screen control panel is shown.
Controls
| Action | Default key | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Move forward | W | Move the character forward along its facing direction |
| Move backward | S | Move the character backward |
| Move left | Left Arrow | Strafe the character left |
| Move right | Right Arrow | Strafe the character right |
| Move up | Up Arrow | Increase height |
| Move down | Down Arrow | Decrease height |
| Rotate left | Q | Rotate the character's heading left |
| Rotate right | E | Rotate the character's heading right |
| Precision (hold) | Left Shift | Slow movement & rotation for fine adjustments |
| Reset | R | Snap back to the starting position and heading |
| Confirm | Enter | Lock in the current position and exit |
| Cancel | Esc | Discard changes and return to the start |
ℹ
Hold Left Shift while moving or rotating to apply the precision multiplier (default 25% speed) for millimetre-perfect placement.
Confirm vs cancel
- Confirm (Enter) — accepts the new position. The character's alpha is reset to normal, the final coordinates and heading are synced to nearby players, and the tool closes. The character remains frozen at the confirmed spot.
- Cancel (Esc) — discards all changes. The character is returned to its original position and heading, alpha is reset and it is unfrozen. Two alternative cancel keys are also bound in the config for controller/layout flexibility.
Limits & guard rails
- Max distance — if you move beyond
Config.Movement.MaxDistance(default 5.0 m) from the start, the tool returns you to the starting position and closes with a warning. - Height limits — reaching the configured maximum or minimum height cancels positioning and restores the start position.
- Cooldown — after closing, the tool enforces
Config.Cooldown(default 15 s) before it can be opened again.
