Enhancement - Cyclops controls / light [43096]

ToeiRei · January 2017

I was playing with the cyclops a little bit to check out its features and stumbled over the light switches which do lack feedback. I'd miss some red/green stuff to see if the lights are really switched on or off...

...

The lights going out wasn't enough feedback already?

You cannot always see the outside lights when standing at the switch.

I think there is a communication problem.
ToeiRei is meaning the headlights and EvilSmoo is thinking about the lighting within the cyclops.

I totally agree with you, at the moment you can not differentiate between on and off.
Also it would be great, if you could switch between on and off from the pilot place.

I was referring to both of the switches to have some standards in the ship... i.e. 'all works the same way'

I must've asked for that at least once too. It happens way too often that I run back and forth from the switches to the glass to figure out if things are on or not. There is a difference, but it's very subtle unless you are close to a surface. I can't tell with the Seamoth either if I'm not near the seafloor. Color-coded feedback on the switches would be great.

Or just move (or add another shortcut to, like a 3-way switch) the light switch to inside the driving view, on the right hand side, sort of like how the camera icon works.

Uh no. Not another button there which activates that airhorn...

Eh? The camera doesn't activate the airhorn, only if you miss it. IIRC, anyways...

ToeiRei · January 2017

Well... the cyclops gives a short airhorn before switching to camera view here...
