Night visibility

[Argutaris]

How to make a certain region in a map have night/decreased visibility?

There isn't any way I know of to make this perfect; but you can emulate the effect by adding the item 'Sight Range Bonus' ability with a negative value to units when they enter the region, and remove it when they leave.

This will give units 'night' vision while they're in that area, if the value is roughly -800 to -1000. You may need to remove it during night, because it could remove all of the vision from a unit.

Right and wrong.

You can edit the item's stats to make it any amount of sight bonus.
When units enter rect, remove it
When units leave rect, add it

I agree on it being possible to adjust the ability's stats, but I don't know how to make the system perfect; as in, when you enter the area it will create an omega shaped pattern. The method that has been described should work fine in most cases.

No the item is the ability not an "item"
