How can I add Wagstaff vision to my character, but only daytime?

Hey!

Basically the title. He would see worse daytime, but normally in dusk- and night time.

The absolute best would be if it wouldn't be activate at all in the caves.

You can't do the exact Wagstaff vision in DST because it requires custom shader and engine modification

@Cunning fox Thanks for the reply!

You can create an overlay in which is covers a portion of the screen, this looks kinda bad imo but it should work the same.

A simple way to do this is to create an overlay based on widgets/sandover.lua. It's not a perfect analog for Wagstaff's vision FX, but you can edit the colors, transparency and whatnot to suit your needs.

The time of day is separate for caves and the overworld, so basically you can create code for the overworld day and it wouldn't affect daytime in caves.

 

local function AtDay(inst)     

	if TheWorld.state.isday then           
		--turn on wagstaff vision (I do not know how to do specifically this)
		else
	--turn off wagstaff vision (I also do not know how to do specifically this)
	end
	
end

---put the code above in yourcharacter.lua

---put the code below inside the master_postinit within yourcharacter.lua

	inst:WatchWorldState("isday", AtDay)

Also I would like to thank you for creating this post because I could use this information about the blindness part myself.

@Earthyburt Woah, much thanks for the lines.

I didn't have the time to experiment with this blindness perk yet, but I'll update this topic if I'll reach any results.
