[2.0.9] Cloud shadows too dark

Post by Usul »

Cloud shadows were a tiny bit too faint pre Space Age, now are way too dark. Most noticable on large areas of bright soil (see example screenshot).

I ended up disabling clouds in 2.0 because the shadows are much too dark and interfere with visibility and therefore gameplay. I enjoyed the faint and very subtle moving shadows of the old clouds in 1.1.

Cloud density/spacing is very inconcistent with Capsule reentry animation shown in https://factorio.com/blog/post/fff-437
The video shows continouse "blanket" cloud cover".
