About this mod

Replaces the rather useless binoculars with a more usable reticle, more zoom, and smaller size.

Binoculars are an important bit of kit for any soldier; they are designed to provide a wide, clear field of view in order to scout locations and perform other operations involving recon. However, the binoculars in-game are... near useless. The binoculars have a very tiny reticle that provides only a narrow FOV, they have less zoom than some scoped rifles, and they have an incorrect shape to the reticle (binoculars in real life, if used correctly, should have a singular, circular effect much like a regular scope would have).

I have fixed the zoom issue and the binoculars now have around the same amount of zoom as a Sniper Rifle. I have also added an overlay slightly inspired by the binoculars in MGSV. The model is also much smaller length wise so they're more compact, much like modern military binoculars are. I have added a new recipe in which regular binoculars can be crafted into Night Vision Binoculars with a standard pair of binoculars, scrap electronics, a Varmint Rifle Night Vision Scope, and a sensor module (has a custom model).
