What to study

V.A.T.S. turns a shooter into a tactics screen without leaving the scene. Time slows, the target, a Super Mutant Skirmisher, named in the red nameplate at top centre, is wrapped in a green scanline silhouette, and every body part grows a bracketed percentage box: 20 at the head, 50 and 36 to either side, 29 and 36 low. The selected part is the only red-bracketed element, the torso, and it is the only box that gets a word instead of just a number: 'TORSO' over a small condition bar over 60, a 60 percent chance to hit. Below, a 'CRIT' bar sits part-filled and the ammunition count (010 over 995) stays in its usual corner, so the tactical layer is additive, the HUD does not change rooms, it grows probabilities onto the enemy's body. Frame at about 1:16 in the Creations Bundle Trailer (Steam), manually extracted at 76.4s: the segment lasts barely a second (about 76.0–76.5s), and the scene-change pass caught only the street before it (77.1s) and the firing shot after it, no frame of the targeting state itself.
