Hello @Geez
This issue also applies when you collapse a piece of clothing via the X button in the inventory.

I think many people would like too see both options:

• a complete disabled HUD including all widgets
• a disabled HUD, but the action prompts and loot for example is still visible (as it is now on stable, even if it was implied by accident, I really like that way (maybe remove the "check pulse" widget too) and I have nomore the need to constantly switch the HUD on and off.).

Isn't this because the shell/cartridge gets stuck when ejecting? you can see it fly away after the unjam animation. Maybe someone more gun savvy can clarify.

Hey, I tested on official server and you are correct that the town is in fog, I was not aware that the community server had increased view distance.
And I definitely am crouched in the first video, not standing - I tested that again as well and the sway when standing was much more extreme than what is shown in video #1.

@Jaakael videos are from 1.17 vanilla server, or it's CommunityOfflineMode ? Are you modify fog some way ?

I think what the devs try to implement is an advantage among the possible players possitions, standing, crouch or laying on the ground. The sway of the scope is reduced if your body is closer to the ground.

Pro tip, if you do not want the swing, use binoculars or range finders to scope the area. Or you even can use the scope in your hand.

Agree 100%, was surprised to see this wasn't an option. I often do this on accident when clearing buildings as you quickly raise your weapon when checking a corner, and then immediately lower it when you see no one is there, which happens so fast that you unintentionally right click and get stuck in ADS, would go a long way to reduce the clunkiness of the game.
