That's Lit - Logical AI Vision 1.380.10

I decided to deliver this ASAP because I'm excited for this new stupid simple shadow detection and I like it after some test raids!

• Fake detection of ambience shadow (buildings, trees, etc.)
• Extra brightness score reduction when in bunkers
• Above combined, the brightness detection around and inside structures makes more sense than before
  • Feedback is welcomed!
• Cloudiness GUI ☀/☁
  
  • If you ever wonder why the meter stays all right in day time, it's probably a very cloudless day
  • Sometimes you can't tell

Quote from SPTarkovina

Are there known issues with one of them in combination?

None that I know.

Quote from Illu-sama

I believe the latest version might have a bug for night factory.

the light meter was basically maxed the whole time, but the AI were spotting me instantly.

So I replied to you in DC earlier and I did 2 more night factory raids, one with That's Lit only and one with several mods including SAIN, I didn't notice anything weird on my end.

Quote from SPTarkovina

For me it's map independet - factory day works since it's disabling itself there, all maps where it's active its a CTD within the first minutes.

What's your hardware? I remember 1 or 2 people said similar things in the past.

Very interesting, unfortunately I don't have an answer for now.

So I've had 1 guy reported crashing with 13900 (Streets), and 1 guy with 13700+3060Ti.
I've had 2 guys reported massive fps drop with 13900 + 4090 (Streets).

That's all I know for now, comparing to thousands of other users these are not enough to conclude a pattern. It could even be some software issues but I just can't let people show whatever they got on their OS to me...

Major Update

This release includes major re-balancing, various improvements and important bug fixes.

Over the numerous releases in the past, quite some parts of the mod have became flawed or outdated, many of these got reviewed and updated in this release.

[Preview] [Preview] [Preview]

If you've tweaked the settings, it's recommended to reset everything, try the new balance in different time/weather for several raids then tweak it to your liking.

Also, if you've disabled the meters, consider enable them to understand the impact of ambience shadow. (Remember, the 2nd is the processed result of the 1st, and it's the final impact to bots)

• Lit Score calculation is now more accurate and less erratic, and no longer randomly skyrocket.
• Ambience shadow is fully integrated. Make sure you stick to shadows in clear days/nights to gain advantages... or accept disadvantages.
  
  • It's no longer blocked by most transparent glasses.
  • Noted that the shadow comes from ambience brightness, so the impact depends on the sun/moon.
  • Added Extra score processing for GZ basement, Interchange & Interchange parking to match the unusual visual brightness. I tried my best...
  • Known issue: The top half of some of the GZ buildings don't have proper collider models, thus when you are not far away from bottom of the buildings and ambience lighting is not blocked by anything else, Ambience Shadow impact would drop. Maybe Streets have the problem too, not tested.
    
    • After a day of of research I concluded there's no mean to fix this.
  • Though not perfect, this feature completes That's Lit. Now even your positioning (under sun/moon light) becomes a decision.
• The whole SeenCoef calculation is overhauled (found quite some fucked up stuff I left there...) and all the mechanics are deeply integrated.
  
  • Overall bots are more human and less blinder than before.
  • Highlight penalty is no longer minimized for the improved score calculation and the new ambience shadow feature.
    • However, total penalty (from all features combined) is now capped to 50%.
  • To simulate bots paying attention to the position they have spotted you, bots are less impacted if you don't move after exposing. (Before this, they need to find you again after looking away)
    • This fades out overtime. So if somehow they are distracted, they may forget you are there and get full impact.
  • Extreme darkness now additional delay bots much more than before.
    • This means it's safer to sit or sneak in pitch dark locations in Night Factory, and maybe some maps that can get very dark in cloudy nights.
    • Also, the Night Factory roof beams are now somewhat usable if you slowly sneak and the bot is not too accurately looking at your direction (ex: bots right below you). Needless to say, it's still very dangerous because once you are spotted you are a sitting duck without covers.
  • Grasses calculation is reworked.
    • Overall it's more effective when properly utilized and will not overly effective in close range or higher poses.
    • By crawling through dense grasses you can get closer to unaware enemies.
    • You can now actually try to get out of sight and re-approach again in low poses from different angle.
    • Lying down in very dense grasses in front of bots no longer just blind them.
    • High poses now properly grants less stealth than lower poses.
• Changes to Foliage Blending (the one that works against bots far away). Now allows multiple foliage to be evaluated instead of just the nearest one. Can be configured in a range of 1 (default) to 5.
  • This allows Foliage Blending to works against bots from different directions.
• Alternative Reaction Fluctuation (Optional and enabled by default): When Brightness module is disabled, makes bots' SeenCoef slightly fluctuates.
  • It should be not noticeable, but rarely you may get lucky (or unlucky).
• Added a piece of code patching a specific scenario:
  • In vanilla code, for some time after a bot seeing you, it gets instant visual on you.
  • The patch randomly add a minor delay according the distance you moved after the last seen position and the direction the bot is facing.
  • Probably not very noticeable.
• Fixed wrong implementation of player movement impact to visibility. It hadn't been reading actual speed before.
  • If you are slow enough like slow walking and crouch walking, the impact will be hugely reduced.
• Fixed a old flaw in equipment light/laser detection that makes lasers ignored when no light found.
• Bots are now classified into Bosses, Followers, Default. Bosses are... bosses. Followers are regular boss followers and factions like Rogue, Bloodhound, Raiders, etc.
  • Followers SeenCoef are 50% less increased/decreased by That's Lit. And Bosses too, If the Include Bosses options is enabled.
  • Note: Santa Scav is boss class and Scav Sniper is follower class.
• Removed Global Overlook Chance option.
• Various minor improvement/changes/fixes.

Doesn't seem that much or major, eh?

The release cost me at least 90 hours. I mean, literally 90+ dedicated hours. Almost went through a breakdown for this.

Big changes in the model and the following balancing work usually requires me to:
Modify -> Launch the game -> Go to most of the maps -> Check all the numbers on various combinations of time x weather on every type of locations... -> Test bots reaction in various situations... -> Test every feature works and bug fixed...
Again. Again. Again. Again. Again and again.
And if I eventually change something, then again.

Damn! I really need to stop doing shits for fun and go get a job before I go broke lifeworththinking

Notes

• I've received several report of getting unusual headshots since 3.8. However it's still rare cases and one of them fixed it by reinstalling their SPT, so maybe it's not caused by That's Lit?
• I've been revising the mod description, some of them requires your attention:
  
  • SAIN has added some feature that greatly affect difficulty, please check "Recommended Mods".
  • A Loadout mods that properly gives bots NVGs and flashlights in nights is highly recommanded for balanced gameplay.
• Lit Score calculation is based on game visual brightness instead of theoretic brightness. For example, Reserve bunkers are unusually bright even without any light, and the score reflects that.
• Reminder: Some edge cases exist for Lit Score calculation. Some examples:
  • Ground Zero: the character receives sun light in basement floor... would you believe that... (The basement is considered slightly less darker than it looks like, but not too off)
  • Night Factory: Next to the tanks there is a very dim ceiling lamp somehow has a very large lighting range. And the tunnel walls near Emergency Exit leaks lights.
• Yes it will work for 3.8.1. As long as it's the same EFT version it usually works.

Probably the most epic change ever: Zip file! You now get a well-organized zip file instead of a non-sense dll .

Finally! The author of That's Lit stopped hating SPT players just because he dislike zipping just 1 file

Besides that very cool and powerful change:

• File-based Compatibility system
  • Gear definitions (Scopes, Goggles, Lights & Lasers) are now stored in files instead of hard-coded. Compatibilities or customizations can be easily made by anyone. Modders can easily distribute their compatibility too.
    • Define templates first then point items to a template, should be simple enough. The template-based system allows supporting a custom gear super easy if the gear works very similarly to a existing compatible gear.
    • For new flashlights/lasers, you need to loop through all modes ingame to know what does it emit in each mode. Yes all the vanilla devices were manually tested and typed in this way long since. It's a dumb but robust approach.
  • All *thatslitcompat.json files inside BepInEx\plugins will be loaded on launch, file with higher "priority" will overrides file with lower "priority".
    • This means compat files can be easily shared or distributed by modders.
  • In the default.thatslitcompat.json file there's no difference between strong and weak laser.
    • Concept: A laser is a laser, in night time, any visible laser is a very noticeable line in sight. In daytime, visible lights and lasers don't really provides penalty because they only compensate the lit score to neutral range. It's correct to pay attention in daytime, just not because it increases brightness score, but because it impair your stealth like in foliage/grasses.
    • Weak lasers useful in daytime when against human, but bots is already stupid enough, they don't really react to laser even 10% efficiently as human, there's no point to make weak lasers more effective.
  • Goggles fov values only decides whether the player stealth gets nullified by the bot's night vision or thermal. Bots using the goggle won't get blinded when out of fov because bots don't look around like human players.
• Added support for BodyTemperature stims. Players taken SJ9 or similar stims will gain stealth against bots using thermal.
• Reworked regular darkness impact so That's Lit no longer delays bot reaction much when the score is close to 0, but still as effective when the score is lower.
• Reworked Overhead Overlooking.
  • Night Factory roof beams are more than somewhat usable.
• Reworked Encountering patch.
  • Besides, added a chance to still replace the visibility with vague hint, even if the bot is not facing away, given it's a surprise attack (when the player is not seen recently and far away).
• Properly capping ExtraVisionDistance.
• Ambience shadow is less effective in winter raids.
• Major internal refactoring.
  • Fika: This release could possibly work for all players. I really don't know. But if it does, it means 5 cameras for 5 players. Disable Brightness or expect your fps to drop dead.
• Removed LessFoliageCheck option because the check is really lightweight and now checks are alreadythrottled by movements.
• Supports embed light & lasers (PM Laser & Boss Xe). Fixed MAWL-C1+ modes.
• Added an equipment info GUI showing enabled lights/lasers. Can be disabled.
• Minor changes and fixes.

Notes

• Somehow only very recently I realized we can destory lights to create darkness. Mind-blowing
• SAIN is adding some simple stealth mechanics.
  • Gear Camo: this works fine with That's Lit, and will be always be so because That's Lit will never add stealth bonus from gears.
  • Movement and height difference impact, this is overlapping with Movement Module of That's Lit.
    
    • SAIN's implementation is simple for now. Sprinting gives you flat 33% debuff. Height difference more than +-2m gives you flat 33% buff and -15% debuff at any range.
    • That's Lit implement smooth impacts by speed/angle, and is less impactful to stay integrated with all other mechanics.
    • I've had a short discussion with Solarint and I expect SAIN's implementation will be given a toggle and improved, either by Solarint or me contributing to SAIN.

• Config: Split Final Impact Scale into Final Impact Scale (Slower) & Final Impact Scale(Faster). The option is reset.
• Config: Rename Vague Hint Change to Visibility Cancel Chance and update the description again. The option is reset.
• Config: Rename Darkness/Brightness Impact Scale to Darkness/Brightness Impact Scale and change the default to 50%. The options are reset.
  
  • New 50% is equal to previous 100%. This allows people to increase/decrease the effectiveness instead of decrease only.
• Config: Rename Lit Vision Distance Scale to Extra Vision Distance Scale. The option is reset.
• Config: Rename MovementImpact to Movement Impact. The option is reset.
• Config: Removed Less Equipment Check because the check is nothing. (Again: You give up Brightness Module if you need FPS. Other than that the mod is lightweight.)
• Minor tweaks.

Notes

• Fika: If the more the players the more fps you lost, that's not a bug. That means the mod is fully working for all players... Every player get a dedicated camera. You disable Brightness Module for a practically enjoyable performance. All other features work.
• That's Lit is not a No Bush ESP mod. It works with any No Bush... It does not care about or interact with any other No Bush. When in doubt, read the mod explanation again.
• If bots are blind when it's in a bush, you are in a bush, or there is a bush between you, even if you are like 2 meters away, that's how SAIN's new No Bush ESP is designed to work.
