Cataclysm-dda: Various weathers create constant light at night

Created on 27 Jun 2019  路  5Comments  路  Source: CleverRaven/Cataclysm-DDA

Most weather events cause varying levels of light, ranging from cloudy to almost day-time bright, during night time. All weathers except clear and cloudy (and the non-included acids) seem to do this.

Steps To Reproduce

  1. Start any character and use the debug menu to set time to night hours.
  2. Use debug menu to change weather to something like lightning storm or snow storm.
  3. Now you can leave your flashlights at home.

Expected behavior

Differences in weather shouldn't be creating magically bright overworlds in the dead of night.

THANK YOU! I have been trying to isolate what was causing this... was making me crazy. Yes, I get this too

I wonder if this has to do with the optimisation and caching. Hopefully seems like an easy fix? :)
Nice spot.

WOW! I only had a few minutes to play earlier and this confused me greatly.

(edit)
I had thought maybe it was a display glitch but nope. Night excursions into cities are just about as hard as day excursions and I can craft at night even in the pouring rain (stuff that's not dark craftable).

It's also really strange to be able to read books in the dead of night without any kind of light source.

that happen to me to, any workaround until the fix?
