Day/Night Lights

Day/Night Lights switches the lights in your world off at sunrise and back on at sunset, while players stay in control.

Features

• Sunrise: lights that are on go off and are remembered. Sunset: they come back on. Lights a player switched off stay off.
• Manual override: switch a light on during the day (a cellar, a mine, a dark shop) and it stays on until you switch it off yourself.
• Every vanilla light gets a Day/night switch tab with a button to take it out of the schedule (needs full access).
• Fuel lights use no fuel while switched off; fewer active lights during the day helps players with weaker GPUs.
• Works on all 34 vanilla lights and on lights from other mods that use the housing type "Lights".
• Settings file (Configs/Mods/DayNightLights/DayNightLights.json): enable/disable, check interval, batch size, which furniture types count as lights, excluded objects, skip lights inside rooms.
• Admin command /daynightlights shows the status.

Good to know

• Eco gives no housing or culture value for a light that is switched off, so lights that are auto-off during the day do not count. Use the per-light switch or SkipLightsInsideRooms where that matters.
• To remove the mod: set Enabled to false, restart once (every auto-off light goes back on), then remove it. Make a backup of Storage first.
• Server-side only, source code (UserCode). No client download needed.

Compatibility: Eco 0.14.2 (beta release-1099).
