About The Pull Request

unknown

Mesons no longer give a modified lighting plane alpha. They still reveal turfs that are lit up or within your light radius, but won't work as some weird night vision analogue.

Why It's Good For The Game

No more funni meson stuff. An alternative to #7306

Changelog

balance: Mesons dont hide darkness slightly anymore, removing a effect that on diagonals each light showed xenos 2/3 tiles away

If a change must be made, this certainly is more amenable.

if

Yes a change must be made, free NVG (even if it's still dependent on there also being broken light sources around) is not okay.

Superior and less hacky solution to #7306 that doesn't just ruin the point of mesons

This still makes having mesons a clear (yet small) advantage to having no mesons, for a zero price nor being role limited.

Why?

You forget the disadvantage of reduced eye protection which makes any explosion nearby blind you for longer than normal. Even ammo cookoffs will blind you if they happen onscreen with you.
