Russian Overkill dual pistols confuses "Disable when weapon is not ready" option

Submitted by Rodman909 on ZDF:

Playing this with Russian Overkill; after picking the Yellow Junk Box, which allows to dual-wield your starting pistol, the crosshair disappears when I switch to my pistol. Oddly, it still shows up with the other Slot 2 weapon (the satchel).

Add visual hitmarkers when target is hit

Submitted by ShockwaveS08:

I just remembered something: In Doom 3, the crosshair changed color upon a successful hit on your target. Would it be possible to either implement something like this or hitmarkers that move along with the Precise Crosshair?

An option to color crosshair depending on target health

Submitted by ShockwaveS08:

Is it possible to have the color of the crosshair reflect the health of the monster you're currently aiming at, not unlike Serious Sam, assuming the relevant option disable crosshair-health for yourself is disabled?
