FloodLightMod [StationeersMods]

So the idea was to add buttons and do the dimming via animation clips. Been in there briefly before I started with another mod but I think I hit a blocker and have to test more. Disabling the shadows would be really great in a config file or even better an in game mod setting... but thats still something I know nothing about.

Can you swap one prefab for another prefab at run-time?

If you can swap objects, then whenever a floodlight is painted, you could swap it to a predefined "dim variant" if the painted color is grey (or an even dimmer variant if the target color is black). Whenever you paint the "dim variant" you swap it back to the normal variant (unless the target color is black, in which case you swap to the even dimmer variant).

This would require having 3 variants of each flood light, but you don't have too many and the 3D models are the same for each variant (so it doesn't require new assets). I haven't created anything in Unity myself, I've only edited DLLs or compiled C# mods (for other Unity games), so I'm not sure of the actual required work to do this.

I can try something else inside unity maybe in order to dim them at run-time. Gonna experiment a bit.

If the dimming isn't possible, I take it that is because you have to set the intensity of the light when creating the prefab, is that right? In other words, you can't dynamically change intensity values at run-time?

If you're considering having alternates with no shadows, could you please also add alternates that are no shadows & half intensity but still the same radius of effect (because you could set that intensity level when defining the prefab)?

The dimming of lights with spray paint won't be possible (for me) currently as I am not proficient enough with programming but adding alternative lights with no shadows is pretty easy. Will probably include them these days.

Something I've remembered that I forget to mention in my previous post, it seems that the flood lights are casting shadows now. One of the main reasons I wanted the flood lights was to have lighting without shadows.

I know that there are many reasons someone would want to have shadows cast from the flood lights, so would it be possible to add alternate versions of each light (one that casts shadows like a normal light, and one that casts no shadows)?

I'm liking the new update. There is one thing I have noticed... when I paint the light grey or black, I expected it to effect the intensity of the light. Painting it grey should make the light (including specular highlights) dimmer. And painting it black should make the light even dimmer (not completely dim, as black would suggest).

Would it be possible to make it so painting it grey halves the intensity of the light, it still keeps the same radius of effect but just half as bright. And black could be quarter intensity.

The large floodlights are great at lighting up an entire base, but near them the intensity makes white objects too bright (EG: white walls are overbright, making it harder to see objects on the wall). Painting them grey would make this minor issue go away.

Update is out.
Flood lights can be toggled by hand.
Large growlight light source received a simple animation for its on/off states.
Added sounds to on/off toggle.
Lights can also be painted now

Helps a lot with screenshots at night. Yep I want to look into getting paintable materials for this at some point after I reworked BowlingMod and added a few more things to MoreCladdingMod.

I appreciate this mod to reduce the default light spam, especially outside.

Is being colorable via spray paint something you plan to do as you continue on this?
