The cockpit night light of AI's planes from external view
« on: February 04, 2025, 09:23:20 PM »

When the night light is turned on from the cockpit, there are many planes that can also be expressed in the external view.

However, this is limited to the player's plane.

Is there a mod that allows AI to turn on the night light when the player turns on the night light ??

This is because it means a lot to movie makers.

And when I look sideways from the cockpit during the night flight, I will easily know the position of my fellow planes.

Thank you.

- It's good to take a big screenshot

My initial appreciation of the matter is that this would not be a straightforward thing to implement. Only the player's plane has a cockpit, and it is within the cockpit that the night light is defined.

I suppose a lightpointactor could be defined in the individual plane class and, for AI bots only, activated when the Sun goes below some threshold angle below the horizon...

I see. And I'm sorry. I forgot for a moment that AI doesn't have a cockpit.

I only thought about the function & command extension of NG HUD, so I thought it might be possible to some extent, but it was just my delusion.

Thank you for your clear answer.

Indeed is not difficult to implement in a single plane but the task of going through more than a thousand planes .......

My suggestion was limited to planes that could display the cockpit night light in the external view.

Because there are actually only a few such planes.

Most planes cannot represent the cockpit night light in the external view (the cockpit is dark in the external view).

My suggestion started with that notion.

Anyway, it's my over-delusion, so I hope you understand it widely.

Thank you.
