Fix the PSo elevation adjustment "zeroing"

[gibonez 3633]

The pso 1 has elevation adjustments all the way to 1000m however those elevation adjustments are extremely specific and correspond to an SVD in 7.62x54r.

 

So mounting a pso on an ak will not magically zero the weapon correctly as the scope is configured for a separate weapon and a different caliber altogether.

 

So a fix would be to keep the pso's elevation adjustments the same regardless of what weapon it is mounted on keeping the psos elevation adjustments for the svd accross all of the mountable weapons.

 

So an akm with a pso that is zeroed at 100m will not be dead on it will have a completely different point of impact since 7.62x39 coming out of the 16 inch barrel of an akm has completely different ballistics to a 7.62x54r coming out of an svd.

It'll probably be changed for this once the SVD is actually in the game... it's just that the AKM was the first weapon to use the PSO-1 so it's set up for it.

 

If you've ever tried using the PSO with the AK-101 you'll notice that it's a quite a bit off when compared to the AKM, although it still wouldn't be as extreme a difference from the SVD to the AKM.

Yea it would.

7.62x39 has a rainbow trajectory it drops like 11 feet at 500m. The 54r should be under 5 feet at the same range.

None of is of course is very apparent due to the games 100m elevation adjustment system.

Say we get mil turrets the difference in ballistics between calibers will be super apparent.
