By day they see at 16km, by night I can see enemies around 13km with attack periscope.

Any suggestions?

you are manipulating the proper file however i believe that Visual light factor=1.0 is the standard.
below 1.0 would lower your crew's skill to see at night.
Stock has the value set to 1.2.
Dark Waters has it set at 0.01.
TMO ala Bubblehead is the same as Stock, 1.2.

there are also two other visual sensor factors to consider:
Visual range factor
Visual fog factor

i believe all three are multiplicative factors, so a value more than one increases their detection capability.


good luck with whatever values you settle on.
