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.

this supersedes the beta, I'd assume?

Very nice!
This could result in some new maps or FM.
Would it be posssible to have it as an implant? Upgradeable implant? Different colours?

Of course.

Making it an implant would be a pain in the ass for players though. Vanilla implants are for passive, always-on augmentations, not abilities you might just use occasionally.
