Ace3: Vanilla sniper rifles listed as AssaultRifle by BIS_fnc_itemType only when using ACE

[mattyimperator]

Hi,during my tests i've find a bug.
if I use BIS_fnc_itemType with rifles: GM6 Lynx and M200 Intervention results is "assaultrifle".
I try with CBA,ACE3.
If i use arma3 vanilla,this 2 rifles are "sniper rifle"

[mattyimperator]

so you tell me it is not an issue and ACE3 team don't want to change it?

[commy2]

what?

[mattyimperator]

can you explain what you mean in best word?

He linked the code that causes your issue. Thats what we'll have to fix.

[mattyimperator]

Why is ACE changing it?
cursor = "srifle"; is vanilla, which seems like a much better fit
Perhaps it used to be something else in vanilla? edit: in 1.04 it was also this
This looks like it's a AGM thing that might not make sense to keep anymore

I very _very_ vaguely remember Flummi telling me in a one-off sentence on Teamspeak over 6 years ago that he changed the crosshairs of some weapons, because they were better somehow.
But I may be misremembering, I didn't pay attention.

Why are we changing crosshair when nobody plays on a difficulty that shows them? XD

Next time fill out the issue template and don't spam the issue with single sentence replies. This is not a chat, this is a forum. Thanks.
