Improve Reload System for Enhanced Reload Efficiency

I think that the reloading system needs to be tweaked a little. I find that the way it currently works with needing to press the button in order to free up the mag for extraction is a little bit clunky. After a bit of playing, I have gotten quite used to it but I still don't find it very intuitive and I'm sure plenty of new players coming in for early access are going to feel the same way. I have two ways to work around this that would most likely solve this issue. 1; Just remove the requirement entirely. I know that the purpose of the current system is to keep people from accidentally removing the mag while trying to grab something else, but most VR players are experienced enough to not make that mistake. 2; Make it so that a button press is required from the reloading hand. Another reason I'm sure the reloading is currently implemented in the way it is, is for realism. Needing to press a button on your controller to release the magazine is similar to in real life, how you have to press a button on the gun to do the same thing, which makes the game more immersive. And as previously mentioned, it would prevent some fumbles. A way to maintain these benefits while also making the reloading much more intuitive is to require a button press on the hand that's actually reloading the mag. This would help by making it so all of the reloading actions are contained in one hand instead of needing to split it between both of your hands. There's a couple ways you could go about this; you could keep it similar to how it worked before by requiring you to press either the A or the X button (depending on the hand being used), or you could make it so that you just need to be holding the trigger as well as the grip in order to pull the mag out. I hope that my feedback has been useful and will help benefit the progress of this game. If any piece of this advice will actually be used in improving the game, please message me through discord about it, as I just think it would be super cool to know I've made a positive impact on the games development.
