Ability to change gunsight colors
« on: August 15, 2017, 10:41:07 AM »
I run into the problem mostly with vehicles, the white reticals of the gunsights mesh too well with all the bright backgrounds in the game, sometimes it is impossible to see where I am aiming or how far i've gone on the rangefinder.

It exists and you have to map a key for it. Under global keys is "sight mode toggle" which toggles the tank reticle from white to black. I un-mapped the F4 key which does nothing now and remapped it to the sight mode.

This is like the old joke that voters are harsher to their beer brewer if he has an outage, than their politicians after raising their taxes. Death and taxes are certain but, fun and sex is only now.

Wish granted about 1 year ago. It switches the additive alpha to subtractive.

Default key is Shift F4.
