SmartLights

SmartLights is a script mod that automates headlights, work lights, and beacons based on visibility, weather, vehicle size, and work situation. It features realistic delays for smoother, more predictable lighting behavior. The settings can be found in the game menu under General Settings -> SmartLights, where you can set automatic headlight, beacon, and work light functions to Manual, Automatic, or Realistic. Manual player input is always respected. SmartLights doesn't just operate according to the time of day, but also considers the in-game situation. Headlights switch depending on weather and lighting conditions such as darkness, rain, snow, hail, and fog. Rotating beacons switch depending on vehicle type, vehicle size, and implement, and can be suppressed in work mode. Work lights are handled separately from headlights and switch on for appropriate field work or work situations. Large or foldable implements retain their work context until the end of the work situation. The mod is designed as a multiplayer-friendly, local convenience mod – settings can be used locally per player without requiring administrator privileges.
