[1.5.2/1.5.1] Scopes as Binoculars (UPDATE 3) addon

Ever find a bad condition gun you're not going to keep but it has a scope? or a scope but no gun to put it on?

Scopes As Binoculars aims to allow you to put scopes into your binocular slot and look through them just like a pair of binoculars!

NEW GAME REQUIRED.

WORKS ON 1.5.1 & 1.5.2

DLTX CAPABLE EXEs REQUIRED

Current working vanilla scopes are pso1, pso1m2-1, acog, 1p29, pu, po4x34, galil & zf4 scope

Plus Specter, Pso2, 1p59, 1pn93, Leupold, pn23, Gauss Sight, 1pn93n2_1gs, 1p78gs, Susat, Marchf, Usp1 & Susatov scopes if you're using the included BaS Patch.

Restored Tracking With The Gauss Scope

Most of the scopes work perfect as both a scope & binos (Including all BaS Scopes). They can be dragged or double clicked into the bino slot, is one working item that goes on the guns and in the bino slot very smoothly. You shouldnt notice any weird behavior with those besides that they can now go in the bino slot and can be looked through.

The PU, po4x34, galil & ZF4 are a little different. they can only be dragged into the bino slot, at which point scripts are used to delete your scope and spawn the bino version into that slot (separate new item), and the reverse is done when putting it back into your inventory.

Its like this because half the scopes are inside the weapon_addons.ltx and the other half are inside weapon_scopes.ltx. the scopes inside the weapon_addons.ltx(pso, acog, 1p29 etc) work really well when just adding the necessary edits to make them work as binos but unfortunately the scopes inside the weapon_scopes.ltx(pu, po4x34, galil & zf4) and their associated guns are configured quite a bit differently and wont work the same way.

INSTALL INSTRUCTIONS:

Make sure you have DLTX capable exes.

Shouldnt have any major conflicts.

If using with Boomsticks&Sharpsticks, install the patch after both BaS & Scopes as Binoculars.

MO2 Highly Recommended

New Game Required

Mod conflict notifications for demonized_time_events.script can be ignored, lots of mods including mine use this same script.

KNOWN ISSUES/THINGS TO BE FIXED:

Some scopes have slightly higher zoom when in the bino slot then on the gun

If you're playing with the backpack animation you might get some lockups while opening/closing bag with scope in hand. bag hates the scopes idle anim

pu, po4x34, galil & zf4 scope cant be dragged into the bino slot as the very very first action of a fresh launch (if your trying to test this mod in debug just equip your pda first)

animation transitions arent perfect & some of the scopes clip with some of the fingers

All scopes have dynamic zoom when in the bino slot so a script is used to keep them at max zoom if they arent suppose to have it. looks a little off if you try to zoom out since its constantly forcing you back.

UPDATE 3:

Fixed minor issue that would result in a duplicated scope when the mod was used in conjunction with some of the more obscure weapon packs out there.
New-game not required if updating from old version.
(Thank you Kovacs for the report & Demonized for the fix)

UPDATE 2:

UPDATE 1:

Fixed issue with some scopes not being sold by their proper vendors
