BoxLights

Hello there, forum!

I have ran into a problem with a gigantic outdoor map of mine. The problem isn't the map itself, is the BoxLight. It doesn't cause any graphical error, however:

It's nighttime, but I don't want the player to lose sanity. If I make the boxlight bright enough to make the player not to lose sanity, the map looks a bit bad.

I don't want to make a FC, but I'd like this problem to be solved. Any suggestions?

RE: BoxLights

I am 100% there is a better way to do it but off the top of my head


void OnStart()
{
AddTimer("sanity", 1f, "timer");
SetLightVisible("PointLight_3", false);
}

void sanity(string &in asTimer)
{
GiveSanityBoost();
AddTimer("sanity", 1f, "timer");
}

RE: BoxLights

Or, you know:

void OnStart()
{
SetSanityDrainDisabled(true);
}

RE: BoxLights

Or make it a full conversion and make the darkness that affects the player go down to 0.0

This also gets rid of the weird instant nightvision

I know you don't want to, but it's not that hard to make it an FC

Trying is the first step to success.

The reason I'm not making it a FC is because it's not that necessary. And, I wouldn't make it a FC simply to have a level look cool, I'll just search a workaround.

Many thanks to everyone for the answers :P
Especially Statyk, that was the solution I was searching :)
