I can't see you around my base at night ok so I kind of talked about this before you know with the whole the suggestion of like the daytime so that you can see at nighttime yeah and so I'm pretty sure we're gonna have lights the issue with lights is that they are hard to make and it sounds like that's weird because you know you could jump into Unreal Engine drag a dynamic light into the world and you're like but I'm made of light yeah we can put a light in the game the issue is performance and and when people can build lights wherever they want however many they want this is something that is going to tank the game quite quickly so we need to find some nice way to figure it out like another example is the the glass foundations and walls that we have now that is hard to drawing transparent things is expensive performance-wise but we found a good solution for it and now we can have it so we have to do something similar with the lights find some sort of good workaround to make sure it's it won't destroy the game alrighty so that's all
