Night Vision (Power Type)

Brightens the world for the entity with the power the way the Night Vision effect does, without applying an effect. There is no icon, timer or particles, and a milk bucket can't remove it.

Type ID: apoli:night_vision (alias apoli:toggle_night_vision)

Fields

Field	Type	Default	Description
`strength`	Float or Expression	`1.0`	How bright, from `0.0` (no change) to `1.0` (full Night Vision). Values in between give partial darkvision. An expression is worked out every time the lighting updates, with the entity that has the power as the entity.

If several night vision powers are active, the highest strength wins. They don't stack.

Examples

Full darkvision at all times:

{
  "type": "apoli:night_vision"
}

Weak darkvision while sneaking. Unlike an effect, the power switches on and off instantly:

{
  "type": "apoli:night_vision",
  "strength": 0.4,
  "condition": {
    "type": "apoli:sneaking"
  }
}

Tie the strength to a resource with an expression. This one reaches full darkvision at 10 blood:

{
  "type": "apoli:night_vision",
  "strength": "clamp(vampire:blood / 10, 0, 1)"
}

Or make it stronger as the world gets darker, so dim places are lifted and bright ones are left alone. brightness is 1 in daylight and falls toward 0 in the dark:

{
  "type": "apoli:night_vision",
  "strength": "clamp((0.5 - brightness) * 1.6, 0, 0.8)"
}

The alias apoli:toggle_night_vision exists for packs ported from the original Apoli and behaves the same way.

note

This only changes the client's lighting. It doesn't make mobs easier to detect, and it doesn't change the real light level for anything else.
