System Shock 2 Flashlight Augmentation v1.2
25 Sep 2021
by ZylonBane
Requires SS2 NewDark patch v2.48 or higher.
Should be compatible with all fan missions/campaigns.
TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS
- Grey-market nanotech augmentation deposits bioluminescent cells within the retina to provide coherent illumination of the user's field of view.
- Replaces compass module in standard cyber implant architecture. Use compass keybind to toggle activation state.
- Light generation drains muscular glycogen stores, reducing movement speed by 20% while active.
CUSTOMIZATION
There are four config variables in this script:
- UPDATE_FPS sets the rate at which the flashlight updates. Default is 60. Change to 30 if you experience slowdown while the flashlight is active.
- SIM_INERTIA enables a small amount of inertia on the beam to make it feel more like a part of your body and less like an effect bolted to the game camera. Set false to disable.
- LIGHT_HUE sets the light color. Default is 0.
- LIGHT_SAT sets the light saturation. Default 0.
When using this mod, it is recommended to bind the "Compass HUD" command to something easier to press than the default Alt+C bind.
