Items in hands

A character can hold one item in each hand: a suitcase, a newspaper, an umbrella, coffee... The numbers are rows of the game's own item table. The server sets them and everyone sees them: player:setItemsInHands(left, right); -1 or nil leaves a hand empty.

player:setItemsInHands(46)          -- suitcase in the left hand
player:setItemsInHands(-1, 49)      -- coffee in the right hand
player:setItemsInHands(47, 61)      -- newspaper and a cigarette
player:setItemsInHands()            -- empty hands
local left, right = player:getItemsInHands()

The item only sits in the hand: how the arm moves comes from the walk. For a suitcase or a bag set a walk style too, or the arm swings it as in a normal walk. Pairs tried in the game:

Test command: /hands left right [player id], e.g. /hands 46, /hands -1 92; /hands alone empties the hands.

Taking out a weapon puts the items away. Weapons are given with player:giveWeapon, not here.
