[0.17.69] Map View Disregards Nighttime

Post by bleistift2 »

When one opens the map and zooms in enough to see the details instead of the abstraction, the map shows the area lit as if it were daytime, even at night.

I consider this a bug since I can see biter movements this way. The bug is reproducible without mods by just waiting for the night and opening the map. I expected the detailed map view to be lit like the regular view.

The screenshot were taken without any active radars.

This is a specific choice I guess, because the darkness modifier is available to modders in utility constants:

Code: Select all

zoom_to_world_darkness_multiplier = 0.5
