Weapon Scope Glint
This FiveM resource adds a dynamic and customizable sniper scope glint to scoped weapons - just like in popular shooters. When players aim down sights with a high-powered optic, a realistic lens flare / sniper glint appears, making long-range engagements more tactical and fair.

Features
- Realistic scope glint effect: A visible glint is shown when players or NPCs aim down sights with scoped weapons.
- Fully standalone: No framework required - works out of the box with any server setup (ESX, QBCore, or custom).
- Sprite & corona modes: Choose between sprite-based glint or a light-based corona effect.
- Day/Night awareness: Automatically disables glint during nighttime hours for realism (configurable).
- Distance-based visibility: Glint appears only within configurable minimum and maximum range values.
- Field of view control: Adjust the angular visibility cone for glint detection (default: 20°).
- Dynamic intensity: Smooth fading at the edge of visibility for realistic transitions based on view angle.
- Configurable scope components: Easily define which weapon components trigger the glint.
- Optimized performance: Clean, efficient design with low resource usage and intelligent draw checks.
- Built-in debug tools: Visualize glint field, LOS, and detection logic using included test NPCs and debug lines.

Config
Config = {
