Darkvision

See at night like you were born to do it!

This mod adds a new trait, Darkvision, which allows you to see much, much better in the dark by adding a light that follows you everywhere (but which is invisible to other players).


The light will brighten rooms that already have lighting, so having darkvision may make a bright room a bit brighter than you want it to be. In order to accommodate this, I have added options for adjusting the indoor and outdoor brightness of your vision separately in an effort to help players avoid excess brightness while indoors in an automated way.

This mod requires Mod Options in order to adjust the indoor and outdoor brightness of your darkvision.

Mod Options also offers players a way to toggle Darkvision for characters who do not have the trait. Server admins must first enable this ability in sandbox options!


If Darkvision's brightness is high enough in your Mod Options and you are in a sufficiently bright area, you will no longer be able to see your character's vision cone (which could be a good or bad thing depending on your preferences). This most commonly occurs outdoors during the daytime; it never happens at night, and usually doesn't happen indoors, although I suppose it might if you were in a room with extraordinarily bright lighting.

For those of you who would like to preserve your vision cones during the daytime, please check Mod Options for relevant settings!

Note: The vision cone is the lighted area in front of and around your character that gives you visual feedback about what your character can see.
