Is it possible to fine tune the mod?
The mod works perfectly for big lights (industrial and cars), but it increases the light output of small lights too much (headtorches, chemlights).

Is there a way to fine tune individual lightsources outputs?

Well, that's kinda the whole point of the mod, to increase the distance of lightsources. The industrial lights aren't even effected. There is a list of items affected in the description. The numbers also haven't changed since the first version of the mod.

We're using the mod in our server, and it has done a good job with that, it fixes most light sources! a big thanks for it :).

However, since we are a hardcore server a lot of our pop are having trouble with low light sources that were used for moving without being seen before the integration of the mod (glowsticks and colored headtorches).

This light sources, being also affected by the IL mod, made people using them a walking beacon of light, and an easy target. So people just stopped using them at all, and went on moving in the dark with the "player light" as the only guide.

But the problem here started affecting people with lower grade monitors, since they can't see very well with the player light, and don't want to use low intensity light sources because they are easily spotted with them.

A solution would be to individually set the effect of your mod to each light source, and this way regulate the light output of the glowsticks and headtorches.

I've released a update lowering the brightness of all light items, glowsticks got a big brightness decrease but I left the range of the light the same. The red headtorch got put back to default range and the brightness significantly decreased. The red headtorch used to be like this before but one of the dayz updates changed the way that the lights where adjusted and I didn't have time to figure it out then.
