Range Finder 1.4.6

Can I disable your added dot? I see two dots. Facepunch added a dot for the binoculars in-game or idk. I do not have other dot plugins but I see this.

Oh I didn't know they added a dot for binoculars now. I'll remove it asap when I get home 

Also, it's inaccurate; you may need to re-center your dot detection.
When test with default dot it shows a little difference.

It's based on the player model's eyes. Since we can't get the center of someone's screen, the best we can do.

Please add this functionality to weapon scopes!

Was currently working on it. It's mostly "done" just gotta clean up a few things. 

Thanks for making this, I really like it.

It's finally given a reason for more players to use binoculars which were hugely under-utilised/valued/appreciated etc. I love being able to use these for more effective kills.

Not only that, but once you learn how far above a target you have to aim for a kill at a certain distance, it allows us noobs to improve our shooting accuracy too!

It adds a new method of play for duos etc with one person being able to be a spotter.

Could you add permission to this plugin?
Would like to have this feature unlocked by spending skillpoints in skilltree.

Somehow this isnt working for me.
Loaded the configuration you posted in description.
Neither binocular or L96 shows range

01/12 07:25:13 | Loaded plugin Range Finder v1.3.0 by Cannabis

Plugin loads fine

Neeevermind.... forget my last 2 posts...... dont know how i missed it.......
But i totally missed that you actually had permission to use this plugin.
Added the permission and everything worked fine

But somehow if i reload plugin, i have to use the binoculars first to activate the rangefinder before i can swap to my L96 and use it there.

That's entirely my bad, forgot to document the permission on the plugins page. 

Though the plugin shouldn't have that issue where you're required to use the binoculars before using anything else. 

If I have time this weekend I'll look into it and try to replicate the issue.

Restarted server now and gave myself the permission to use rangefinder.
L96 didnt work before i used the binoculars first..... then i could swap back to the L96 and get the range.

Possible to demand that you have for example 16x scope equipped on the L96 before it works?
Now i can point without scope to get the range. Not a big deal tho.

Edit:
Reloaded plugin and gave myself the permission to use Rangefinder again. L96 didnt work before i used binoculars first.
Also tried to relog / restart server, and it worked fine after that.
So it seems like its just the very first time your using the plugin you need to use binoculars first.

Going to start letting players join my new server tomorrow or sunday to help me bugtest stuff. Its closed now until im done setting it up.
Then i will know if they experiences the same thing.

I changed all the specific perm to true. that its needed. is the main perm needed for the attachements?
so if a player without having main perm and using an attachment, and this is to false in config, can he use it with range info from this plugin?

I changed specific to true, that perm is needed and I got main perm. but I attachments doesnt work with range info.

so when I change it back to false for specific, should I use it then, but no one without main perm?

would be nice to get the config for other guns too, m39, mp5, thompson and lr300, as well as hmlmg and m249, holosight for pumpgung, m4 shotgun and the pumpgun

The default configuration serves as a starting point for server owners to add on to, I will not be adding everything in as it's meant to be an example, rather than a drag and drop.

Yes, main perm is required to use any range finder, the specific perms are for more customization if you'd like to have tiered/variable maximum distances configured to certain skins of attachments.

Could you open a support thread for the issue you seem to be having about enabling the permission for an attachment and it not displaying despite having both the attachment's specific permission and the main plugin permission, didn't come across that in testing.
