After the test:
Nothing happens when two lighthouses are close together at a harbor entrance.
But the cause is not that there is nothing happening when two collision meshes collide, the cause is that the lighthouses are - of course - placed at different heights.

None the wiser...
But fortunately the problem itself seems gone:

You don't need big collision meshes. You can simply add a triangle or a square to the main mesh, and move it below the terrain level. That's how I fixed the rendering range issue with my Helgoland sea stack model
Ok, I will check this. And if it works with the lighthouse light, I will strip the fishing vessel off its navigation lights and place them into their own library file.
Maybe then the stock fishing boat could make use of them too.
But thats a later issue.


Quote:
So the rendering range issue affects equipments as well as land units. Is that correct?
Yes, but I can´t name correct distances at the moment.
Possibly I will do sometime a proper testing with comparable results.

Anyway, if I remember correctly I have a couple of Fresnel lenses modelled and textured, though right now I can't say which order they belong to. They are made according to the data I mentioned above, so they should be pretty accurate, though low-poly. If you think you can put them to use, I can check them and send them your way
Of course: I´m not sure if I can put them to good use, but at least I can try it.
It would be great to have a library file with different lenses and maybe I can ask Kendras, if he allows me to use some of his "special effects" (presupposed they work in SH5 as well).

Is it possible to send them via PM or should I send you - likewise via PM - my mail address?
