SUGGESTION: Increase reticle color range from 0-255 to 0-500

All this will do is allow people to use more bright reticles. I dont know why colorful or inverted reticles were considered an "exploit" in the first case as they provided no clear advantage or what...

I think it does some funny stuff in the background as 255 are the max values for RGB.
Must give some errors if they changed it.

No it doesn't.

The "funny stuff" ones are, as I said in the OP, inverted values and also riddiculously high numbers.

With a range from 0-500 all you get is stronger colors compared to 255. They "glow" stronger. That is literally all

the reason its 0-255 and not 0-500 is because the R, G and B value is based on 8 bit digits, and unsigned they go from 0-255 ref 256 values, 500 is not withint a bit range you need to go to 512 but it makes no sense since the gfx card dont support the color. 255, 255, 255 coresponds to completely white in RGB language ... just saying. If you try run higher values then 255 in best case you would get a strange color in worst case an overflow of some sort.
