Crowdin shows a localizable string with ID gui-graphics-settings-description:lights-quality for the rendering quality of lights at night.
But it does not actually appear in the game. Same is true for gui-graphics-settings-description:max-threads.
Is that intended?

And while you are at it: I believe adding a description to the vsync option could help explain what it does. It is the only non-obvious option that is not explained. I believe waiting for vsync is usually better. However, when people don't know what it is, they may not want the game to wait for anything.

Fixed in Version: 0.17.79

Thanks for the report.

You only fixed the gui-graphics-settings-description:lights-quality, the string for ui-graphics-settings-description:max-threads is still not displayed.

Also, should I make a new suggestion thread for the following?

Opps, I missed that one, thanks for checking.
I fixed it, but this one might take some time until release.

Also I didn't think that Vsync really needs an description, but i'll keep it in mind if anyone else complains.

It can never hurt to descripe something

We had this discussion years ago with if we should enable v sync or not (im still not 100% sure) but ive read if i have gsync, i dont need vsync..
