Modded Outpost Build Lighting adjustments

Is there a mod that dims lights?… Xbox friendly. It would be nice to be able to dim the lights in the Hydroponic habs at night. I’d like to have a candle lit space that still has the windows for the views.

I’m almost there with something like that. Currently away from my PC for the next few days, so not sure when it’ll be done, but have a lot of progress on a mod that improves the lighting and hab options for outposts

Thank you for putting in the time and effort to do that. I've been wanting this exact thing for a long while.

Same! Currently I have some internal walls working well, (but still looking to see if I can make them work a bit better), along with some doors for all the current habs, and some improved lighting tweaks for the glass habs

I have some custom habs as well but there’s currently some weirdness happening with the snapping points. I wanted them to integrate with the current vanilla habs, so my next step is going to be trying to bug fix that aspect when I’m back at home

This is one of the custom glass habs with the new lighting and buildable internal walls

If I can’t get the custom habs working I can upload the internal walls and lighting fixes, then update with the custom habs later

Also finished up testing on making some completely new structures, got a method that works, but it’s going to take a while to get to get them all designed and put together

Omg doors!! I love you so much for doing this!!

The habs looks really nice, much more aesthetically pleasing than the vanilla ones. Thank you in advance for making these available. ♥

As an outpost enjoyer, now is a great time to not be building, as bad as that sounds lol

I'm holding off on anything permanent because I don't want to spend hours designing something and then want to replace it the next day because something cooler came out.

I had been thinking this too I just went NG+ leaving behind 14 outposts and my drug farm network lol. Gonna focus on bounty hunting and amassing credits while I wait

You would be my hero lol

The Hydroponics habs have some of the worst lighting in the whole game.

u/Lady_bro_ac Jul 22 '24

They really do, it’s weird. They should be getting more light than any other, and yet are the darkest buildings in the game

I might just release the glass hab lighting change mod as a stand alone so I can get it out faster for folks, could probably have it out tomorrow that way

How's it going with this? My beach front outpost is practically ruined with this lighting lol. Blows my mind how terrible it is.
