</>What does Wider Vision & Brighter Nights do?
ZED ZONE hides everything outside your line of sight. You see 24 tiles ahead in a 60 degree cone, and the rest of the map sits in shade until you turn to face it. At night the whole map gets darker on top of that. Turn on Wider Vision & Brighter Nights and three sliders take over. Sight Range Percent sets how far you see, up to double the normal distance. Sight Cone Percent widens the cone, and at 600% you see all the way around you. Night Brightness Percent sets how much daylight stays after sunset, from the game's normal dark at 0% to full daylight at 100%. The sliders scale the game's own numbers, so aiming and scopes still change your sight the way they normally do, starting from your wider base. Underground stays as dark as usual. Turn the switch off and your sight and the night light go back to the game's own straight away.
</>What is Wider Vision & Brighter Nights?
In ZED ZONE you only see what's inside your sight cone: 24 tiles ahead and 60 degrees wide, with everything else shaded out. This mod gives you a slider for each part. Range goes up to 200% (48 tiles), the cone goes up to 600% (all the way around you), and night brightness runs from the normal dark to full daylight. Aiming and scopes still work on top of your new base, underground areas keep their usual darkness, and switching it off puts the game's own values back at once.
</>Common questions about Wider Vision & Brighter Nights
What does Wider Vision & Brighter Nights do in ZED ZONE?
It widens your line of sight and lifts how dark nights get. ZED ZONE shades everything outside your sight cone, so zombies and loot stay hidden until you face them, and nights darken the whole map on top of that. This mod gives you one switch and three sliders: Sight Range Percent for how far you see, Sight Cone Percent for how wide the cone is, and Night Brightness Percent for how much daylight stays after sunset.
What are the normal sight range and cone in ZED ZONE?
The game gives you 24 tiles of sight in a cone 60 degrees wide. The sliders start at 150% range and 200% cone, so 36 tiles and 120 degrees. Setting either one to 100% gives you the normal value, and 600% cone means you see all around you.
Do scopes and aiming still change my sight?
Yes. The mod scales the numbers the game itself asks for, so aiming or a scope still changes your sight range and cone the way it normally does. The difference is that it starts from your wider base instead of the normal 24 tiles and 60 degrees.
Does Night Brightness Percent light up underground areas?
No. The game sets underground light on its own, after the night light, so caves and other underground spots stay as dark as usual. Night Brightness Percent only lifts the darkness of nights above ground, and daytime looks exactly the same as it did before.
Can I use it when playing ZED ZONE with friends?
Yes, whoever runs it gets the wider sight and brighter nights. It only changes what your own screen shows, not the world itself, so a friend in the same game keeps the normal view unless they turn the mod on for themselves too.
How do I get the normal view back?
Turn the Wider Vision & Brighter Nights switch off. Your sight range, sight cone and night light go straight back to the game's own values, including any scope or aiming bonus you have at that moment, and nothing about your save is changed.
