Suggestion: different brightness of optics

senjorlossi · 10-15-19, 08:15 AM

Hi everyone!
Here is a wisch I have for the future development:

I would love to have different brightness for the different optics (UZO, Attack Periscope, Obervation Periscope, Binoculars) during the night. Each of this parts has a different lens size, thus resulting in a more or less bright sight when using it during the night. As far as I know, this has never been modelled in any SubSim so far.

I don´t know the numbers for the actual optics of the Type VII U-Boat, but I guess using the small AP optics would lead to a much darker image than using the UZO for example, thus making an underwater attack in a dark night much more difficult and challanging.

I hope you get my Point...

I have no idea about the facts but I like the realism and difficulty of it!

Love it! I hope it's not too difficult for the devs, it would add a nice bit of immersion!
