41.45 Ability to not fall when crouching and not running

[Faalagorn]

Unfair deaths in the game the worst, one of the most dreaded ones is falling off when building, especially when you don't know where you can stand. Latest improvements in auto-generating floors beneath slanted tiles is improvement but it's not reliable, and with the isometric view it's often not so hard to accidentally let of your finger from one of the direction keys, even more with controllers and possible slowdowns due to FPS drops or lags (currently in remote play but down the line multiplayer too).

 

Anyway, in Minecraft, when you crouch, you don't fall down the ledges – so you can build relatively safely at heights as long as you sacrifice some speed – the same could apply to zomboid – as long as you crouch and not crouch run when building stuff, your character is "careful" the way it automatically hides behind cover and won't fall. This would give some use of using sneaking when in safe spots where zombies aren't there

Makes a lot of sense, and huge gameplay benefits. I'm all here for it. I'm sure this will be especially useful when they add the skyscrapers of Louisville into the game. I imagine falling off to your death would be annoying as it would be hilarious.
