Hi,
I used to randomly remove the searchlights via SH3Commander (random folder feature). However, the main problem is that it can cause CTDs

Changing the eqp files during a patrol seems to be a bad idea. That's why I stopped it.
On a related topic:
If someone knows I would like to know what files you can change during a patrol. Since SH3Commander basically activates and de-activates mods during a patrol, it would be good to know which files are a no-go.
Best, LGN1
