Question about magna lite.
« on: January 19, 2017, 06:40:13 pm »
Hello.

I think this is kind of stupid, but... How do you turn off the magna lite?. I pressed L like there is no tomorrow but the magna lite never turn off. Or maybe it is not intended?.

Put it in an inventory slot.  When its in the hand its considered "on". 

The "L" option only turns on or off the gal's armor lights.  Some suits have very bright lights but most early outfits have just enough glow to help you pick them out from the dark battlefield.

Magna light ( and electroflares, and torches) all act as light sources when they are in the hand or on the ground.  If you load up your craft with them, the cast light from the equipment pile.

For good night fighting techniques, its best to put these in your gal's inventories and only pull them out when you want to use them.

I thought the magna lite will only give light when in the hands. Thanks for the correction!
