Light Sensor

Sensor to turn lights on when approaching or when the night is falling.

Description :
This sensor will switch any lights (Electric Lamps but also Candles, Torches, Brazier.. etc...) while getting closer or going away.
v1.10 : It will also switch lights when the night is falling.
v1.11 : Version for 7.3 Servers and doesn't support older versions. If you didn't update to 7.3 you can use the 1.10 version.

I made a video to present this mod :

Installation :
Extract Zip content to your Mods folder.

About the Daylight Mode :
I have checked on many servers and I think i found a right method to know the time in game considering the sun must be on top of the sky at noon ... and considering that, the sun rises at 5am and sets at 8pm.

The lights will turn off on 7am and turn on on 6pm, when testing i found this almost good... but let me know if you have any suggestion or any issues.

About Detection and Lights Ranges :
There is 2 ranges : Lights range (15m) and Detection range (20m). All lights in "Lights range" will switch when any player enter in "Detection Range".

Usage :
- Blue light indicates if the Proximity Sensor and Daylight Mode are activated or not.
- Right-Click : Switch lights in range and deactivate Proximity Sensor and Daylight Mode.
- Left-Click : Change Sensor Mode like this :

• OFF
• [ Mode 1 ] Proximity Sensor & Daylight Mode
  
  
  • Will switch on lights only if there is anyone in range AND when it's night.
• [ Mode 2 ] Proximity Sensor Only
  
  
  • Will swhitch lights if there is anyone in range, when it's night or day.
• [ Mode 3 ] Daylight Mode Only
  
  
  • Will swhitch on lights only when it's night.

By default, the Mode 1 is selected.

Craft :
Crafted in the Factory
- Require Electronic Engineering Skill at Level 4
- 4 Steel
- 1 Circuit

For Modders :
Sensor detects lights by checking if objects are in "Lights" category of "MinimapComponent" and if they have the "OnOffComponent".

Street Lamp code as exemple :

namespace Eco.Mods.TechTree
{
    using Eco.Gameplay.Components;
    using ...
    using ...


    // ... //
    [RequireComponent(typeof(OnOffComponent))]    // OnOffComponent required
    [RequireComponent(typeof(MinimapComponent))]    // MinimapComponent required


    public partial class StreetlampObject : WorldObject
    {
        // ... //
        protected override void Initialize()
        {
            this.GetComponent<MinimapComponent>().Initialize("Lights");        // Lights category required
            // ... //


        }
