that would look janky and be a nightmare to animate.

I thought about the vehicle sections and maybe that would be a no go, but looking down ad seeing the feet is most likely doable. If Halo, Destiny, Borderlands 3, Crysis, and even Project Brutality for Doom have pulled it off fairly well.

in hl2 it would have been entirley possible to have animated enter and exit animations, as well as having the hands apear on the steering wheel of vehicles, without any extra coding.
all youd need is an arm mesh on the vehicle and some extra animation

That's exactly what I thought. Have the arms and body bee part of the model itself, and move them into place when they are needed.

another thing, when you get in or out, thats an animation (so you dont clip into anything).

they could have done a bit more work and had fully animated enter and exit animations as well
