Lights

[sarios]

Streetlights in town would be nice, maybe with a version you can build that looks more DIY. So would a flashlight and NPC vehicle headlights.

Do have a headlamp just hit L and make sure not to leave it on when you get in your truck lol.
Would be great to get some street lights, i just think that the town is like mine spend millions to put in new LED streetlights and 2 years later never turn them on might get 1 every 4 lights on the highway on lol.
But like all the lighting it really doesn't help almost is worse with it and even worse with multiple lights overlapping.
Biggest problem is at range doesn't really light up anything (trucks the worst) but when trying to pick up things light is so dam bright all most can't see what is there to pick up and hurts my eyes.

I still feel like the headlamp should be mentioned in the tutorial but thanks a ton.
Definitely agree that certain lights need to calm down though, maybe with some color so the white outlines and numbers stick out more.
The game seems to handle the little lights you can build overlapping well enough, but those ones aren't cranked to 11, I feel like if the NPCs just had cheap amber lights it'd work fine, not like they need to see, it's so I can see them lol.

Yea the house lights work perfect and getting to hook them all to a switch even. Yea if the npc cars had lights would be nice a lot less smashing into them.
