    Today i just browsing the newest dev build,
    i flew on a planet, landed on the sunny side and started minig ores.
    But after some minutes of mining the night comes to the planetside and
    i couldnt find more ores in the dark.
    And then i thought.
    Wouldnt it be nice to have a helmet with a torch light?
    when i suit it and got a light in front of me like in KSP for example.

    The Helmet would make sense and not only trashing my inventory.

    What do you think?
    Flashlight?
    Good Idea?

    I feel it's just the problem of the lighting. It is very buggy, even removing one block (last I checked) causes a complete and total darkness to appear in the place of the removed block.

    there is a day/night circle since its in the server.cfg as an option...
    and this is since im playing the game. and this is sine about 2 years or longer ^^
    Just turn your shadows on and youll see it

    Another problem with the lighting might be the syncing between the clients and the server.

    But when all those problems got fixed it would be outstanding wouldnt it?

    It would be phenomenal. Although suggested before, this is still a very good, necessary feature that needs to be implemented once lighting isn't glitchy as hell.

    Currently lights don't shine from one entity to another, I'm not sure how difficult it would be to make ship lights also illuminate nearby objects

    Yeah I hate how many pitch black wedges I come across...
