[Build 41.65] INI: nightlengthmodifier

[Fuzzy Wolfy]

• 41.65 
• Multiplayer 
• Host
• No.
• Reproduction steps:
   1. Boot title.
   2. Select "Host".
   3. Select "Manage Settings".
   4. Edit Selected Settings.
   5. Select "Other" in "INI" category.
   6. Hover mouse over "nightlengthmodifier".
   7. Observe description.

 

 

As far as I'm aware, the last bug report relating to this was back in 2018:

 

1. Like the title implies, the "nightlengthmodifier" INI option doesn't seem to do as it suggests, the option's name and description don't match up.

 

2. As of right now, the option appears to have no effect on the night duration, however the option name implies that it should.

 

3. The description misspelled "nighttime" as "nightime".

 

4. If the option is really meant to control how dark night time is, there is already an option (Under "World" in the "Sandbox" category), available for both Singleplayer and Multiplayer, that dictates how dark the nights will be:

 

 

 

Not really a big issue, all things considered. I know the devs have been busy cramming to get Version 41 ironed out and released as quickly as possible - and are still working out the kinks as we speak, but I figured it was an issue worth pointing out now that we're over the big build 41 bump.
