Title: Wall Mounted Laterns Don’t Produce Light When “Clipped”
Summary: If you place a wall mounted latern on a wall (say a house) and then do a slice or change vision mode to make the wall it is on invisible the latern no longer produces light
Steps to reproduce:
1) Create a house with a wall mounted lanter
2) Change vision mode to no walls
3) Change vision mode to walls
Expected Results: Light should still be shown on the ground and the area around it at step 2
Actual Results: The area around the “wall mounted latern” appears as though there is no light
Notes:
Attachments: Step 2

Step 3

Good catch
This sounds like a “lights not in view should not be rendered, for better performance” behavior.
But can be perfectly considered as a bug or unwanted behavior.

Yeah definately! And at this stage in the game it makes sense Still refining memory management i’m sure. This would probably be nice as an option to enable/disable! Loving this game SOOOOO much though!

I have some more pictures and it also doesn’t produce the light that is supposed to render at night
