Don't know how to use a machine? Looking for efficient setups? Stuck in a mission?

Radar/zoomed map night vision?

Post by palmic »

Hi,
i found out i cannot see at night through my radars even when i have NV equipment and i see with NV out of the map.
Is it some new feature? Can i somehow fix it by research etc?

This seems unclear to me; a picture of the problem would be helpful.

Pretty sure they mean that NV equipment isn't active when in the zoomed in map view, which is just how the game works.

Old versions use to always render the zoom to world as like daytime IIRC.

Exactly thanks.
So now game does not allow to control bases via drons + radars during night as before?
That seems to me strange.

More correctly this is simply the vanilla default. Mods can activate it via zoom_to_world_can_use_nightvision.
