...wrong im afraid.
It actually depends depends how the shader is setup, it can work however you want.


the colour will be dictated from within a config file somewhere. BTW im sure my reticule used to be orange prior to the recent lighting changes ! hinting theres a bit more red everywhere, it looks pink on my shot now.

@bigpickle. the gunsight does glow. try it at night. the glow is presented by a shader i think.
