Small info about your actions

You are using on yourself stimpack or drinking cola then other players are getting info what you are doing.
It could be done that there is special info in 'console' like:
"Player used stimpak on himself"
"Player used stimpak on Player#2"
"Player arms bomb"
"Player inhales jet"
Or it could be displayed over someone head with purple letters like .E so it would be like like sending message:
".E uses stimpak"
".E inhales jet"
and so on.
Or both thingies at same time.
Massive spam? Give option to disable/enable it then. Thought I think that spam could only occur in NCR *sighs*
I don't think it's normal that you need always figure out what player is doing because there is same animation for every action that you take. It would be step in good direction, right?
I belive it's quite easy to do. I would like to see some dev opinion about it.

I like this idea. If there is not enough animations to show all of player actions, why dont add something like you described above. You got my vote:)

Yeah, more info, better floating texts on npcs and more "graphical" described violence in the combattext

Good idea.
Dont forget about info who the player used the jet on. Take example someone came to inject jet into you in NCR.

[VSB]Nostrum: maybe it could be perception based
[VSB]Nostrum: with lesser then 3 perception, you see nothing ... with lesser then 5 PE, you see he used some drug ... with higher you would know what kind of drug
Explain : [VSB]Nostrum: but i'm too lazy to write that on forums

I like it, the description text was a huge part of what made fallout great, reading things like "her womb was ripped out by the blast, her child bearing days are over" really add to the immersion.

It's a good idea. If I remember well in Fo2 Reno's prostitutes were *using jet* like this.

As I pointed one animations for so many actions really requiers additional info.
About perception determining if you can see what other is doing or not - it could work also if pulled out well.
