Nightvision

[DerpCatThing]

I would like to make it so my mod character has night vision when it becomes night.

[Terry_Rosario]

I have a character that I couldn't really get to have night vision, so I decided to give him a light that covers the entire screen.
I feel that this way is also better because the night vision is quite annoying to the eyes.

local function SeeDark(inst)
    if TheWorld.state.phase == "day" then
		inst.Light:Enable(false)
	elseif TheWorld.state.phase == "night" then
		inst.Light:Enable(true)
		inst.Light:SetRadius(19)
		inst.Light:SetFalloff(0.75)
		inst.Light:SetIntensity(.7)
		inst.Light:SetColour(70/255,230/255,12/170)
		end
end

local refreshTime = 1/5
	inst:DoPeriodicTask(refreshTime, function() SeeDark(inst, refreshTime) end)

I suppose you can try the same thing to put night vision on it, although I couldn't do it, but I work in DST

I'll see if one of these days I decide to put on night vision but I feel satisfied with the light.

Ah i assume this would only be seen via the character on multiplayer right?

Well since this is the DS forum I assumed it was perfect because it's single player, but in multiplayer the others can see by being next to you because you're emitting a light.

Ah this works perfectly, tho i definatly will be changing the night vision to be either full moon or moggle vision

How does the colour cube work.
