clipboard lighting
« on: July 08, 2017, 05:27:47 PM »
At dawn and/or dusk (or is it at dusk and/or dawn?), there seems to be this weird green tint to the light.  Not new, by the way.  It's been that way since AH3 started.
Moving on to the point of the thread, the clipboard also has the green tint and gets as dark as the surrounding environment.  This makes it hard to read in low light situations.  The provided picture shows the total achievement points, but they are impossible to read without X-ray glasses.  The clipboard should have it's own lighting, so that it can be seen clearly at all times.

"Then out spake brave Horatius, the Captain of the gate:
 To every man upon this earth, death cometh soon or late.
 And how can man die better, than facing fearful odds.
 For the ashes of his fathers and the temples of his Gods."

Here is the full screen shot to show the matrix-like green tint.

This green tint is also seen in clouds at the same time.

It's because the enemy spreads mustard gas when they believe it's dark enough for not to see it. :bolt:
