What happens when the bug occurs? The color of the reticle resets to whatever the game logic deems "appropiate" (are you kidding me)
What should be happening instead? The reticle color should remain at whatever you set it to
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? 1. Set reticle color to RGB color code 16 255 16 (bright green) 2. Join game or firing range 3. Open options while ingame, don't change any settings 4. Close options and go back ingame 5. The reticle color has now reset to 0 176 0 (medium green)
The described bug also happens with many other colors that the game doesn't seem to deem "appropiate".
This is most likely due to the wierd "reticle color safety" setting, which upon setting a color asks you if you want to change the color to a "safe option".
This "safety" check should be removed immediately - people are smart enough to set a damn color for their reticle themselves and even if it turns out bad they can always reset it themselves. We don't need the game to do it for us.
