Calculating the correct zoom

[granQ 293]

I am doing a few weapons with 3x, 4x and 10x zooms.. and I wish to make this real.. so how can i calculate this values..

opticsZoomMin = 0.25;
opticsZoomMax = 1.1;
opticsZoomInit = 0.5;
distanceZoomMin = 300;
distanceZoomMax = 300;

Opticszoom values are calculated as (0.249 / Scope Magnification).

3X = 0.083

4X = 0.0623

10X = 0.0249

The maximum zoom your scope has should be opticsZoomMin. opticsZoomMax is the lowest magnification setting for your scope. opticsZoomInit as the name suggests is the default zoom value you get when you raise the weapon to your eye.

distancezoom values dictate the range at which the bullet crosses the centre of the optics (the default zero) for you max and min zooms.
