Man, I still find this to be too dark (especially for content creation with variable viewers displays). Is there an even lighter version? Or maybe a possibility to configure the brightness in options? I love the homey feel of it when everything is lit up later in a game but early on it's just not usable. ;(

I'm switching to this one because I realized I kept fiddling with my screen brightness and... well I guess realistic darkness is a bit TOO dark if I can't see either. :P

This is going to be quite the ask, but what if the amount of darkness was based on the biome's tree spawn rate. I live in a forest and it gets dark, but I know a grass field doesn’t nearly as much, and an ice sheet would sometimes be brighter based on season, it would be mod compatible if there was some spawn rate number, cuz obviously counting trees is a bad idea

I loved the original idea but the mod I had originally installed made it so dark I couldn't do *anything* for half the day.
This is a nice middle ground.
