Circular Reticle Scale?

#1

Post by Aquaman16081 »

This may not be the correct section to ask this. This is likely an extremely beginner question, but is there a scale to the circular rings in the circle reticle? I'm sure this would be much more involved than just having a scale, but just a thought.

Hi,

it's not really very sensible - the innermost ring is a variable distance from the center (you can place it by right clicking on the image). The next ring is 24 screen pixels further out, then the next gaps are 48, 96 and 192 - I think they are steady gaps from there on. Note that these are screen pixel measurements, not image pixel ones, so if you are at a zoom of 50% then you have to take that into account.

Looking at the answer above, it's clear that this situation could be improved - perhaps just drawing the radii on the screen in image pixel measurements against each ring.

cheers,

Robin
