What is Fixed Weapon Swapping?
An annoying bug (or poorly thought-out feature) exists in Grand Theft Auto V vanilla and this mod aims to fix that. Traditionally, whenever you exit a vehicle and immediately try to equip a weapon, the weapon you select in the weapon wheel will not equip at all. This is a major inconvenience as detailed by the video below:

Installation for Grand Theft Auto V
Install ScriptHookV
Install ScriptHookVDotNet
Create a "scripts" folder in your root GTA V directory if it doesn't exist already.
Drag and drop "CubFixedWeaponSwapping.dll" into your "scripts" folder.
Load the game and enjoy!
How do I use this mod?
There's no catch to using this mod. It is streamline and will only positively affect your LSPDFR experience. When pulling up to a scene urgently and you need to pull your weapon quickly, no longer will you be as plagued.
How does it work technically?
This works by disabling the control to open your weapon wheel as soon as you "leave" the vehicle. The controls are then re-enabled quickly. This allows your character to wait until you are technically out of your vehicle, which allows full weapon wheel functionality. The only down-side of doing it this way is the minor additional delay added (about 0.3 second delay) when accessing your weapons. Full source can be found here. Feel free to give me suggestions as to how I can improve it
Enjoy. Inspired by Jeff Favignano and his struggles. Credit to PNWParksFan and Fiskey111 for some additional help and inspiration
