TOPIC: [TTT] Remove crosshair plugin

Server Name:
TTT

Suggestion Title:
Remove crosshair plugin, return to default TTT crosshairs

How would it benefit the server:
Users can go back to using dynamic/bullet-spread-adjusting crosshairs without having to mess around in settings every time they join the server

Potential Issues/Exploits
Less freedom to customize crosshairs

Additional Notes:
Currently upon joining the server (or when a map gets switched) the default TTT crosshair (under F1-> Advanced Settings -> Settings) gets disabled automatically. I assume this is because the server has an addon that allows users to create their own custom crosshair by using the !crosshair command.

The biggest flaw with this crosshair addon is that it does not have any dynamic crosshairs - as in, crosshairs that change in size depending on the weapon you use. Whether you use a sniper rifle or hold down fire with a PKM, the crosshair remains the same size and isn't indicative of your bullet spread.

I can see the value in giving more freedom to customize the crosshair, but in my opinion the downside mentioned above outweighs the pros of staying with the !crosshair addon.

My personal workaround has been to edit my addon crosshair to be invisible and to manually turn on the TTT crosshair every time I load into the server - definitely managable, but unless people really love the plugin I think it'd be better to remove it.

Haven't played in like a year, but this sounds annoying asf.

store.steampowered.com/app/1366800/Crosshair_X/ is your best option here

It simply isn't worth going back to so you should use crosshair x or better yet, suggest them to add dynamic crosshairs to the addon? Removing it just would not happen from my experience.

Agreed, adding dynamic crosshairs to the current addon or changing to a new one that has them would be the best solution.
Otherwise, I still believe the dynamic aspect of the default is better than the ability to change color/thickness in the current addon. Beyond those two things that aren't available in the default, the addon doesn't offer much.

If anybody knows of any other high quality addons for crosshairs, please suggest em'

You're suggesting to remove the entire crosshair customizer because it doesn't have a feature. Adding a box you can tick, in the crosshair customizer, to make the crosshair's "gap" dynamic with the weapon you're holding's spread. And maybe even making the crosshair "gap" expand with the weapon being fired, would be a much more reasonable approach imo.

I hereby rework my suggestion to "Implement a dynamic crosshair into the server". I wasn't under the impression the current addon could be modified to account for this, nor does it really matter in the end whether the current addon gets updated or a different one gets selected. I definitely worded the initial post a bit harshly, though only because using the default TTT crosshair is what I'm used to
