Lauri has implemented experimental light cones which illuminate everything within its range. It's a great step forward for realism, though there are still some aspects of it that need work. For example, other aircraft turn white when they enter a light cone. This is still an exciting development and we can be sure that the dev team will work out the kinks in short order. | ||
