{{name|caps}} works much like {{favilink|night-vision goggles}}, granting a toggleable ability to see into dark areas in a 40-tile radius.  This will also cause everything to appear green-colored, unless the "disable full-screen color effects" [[option]] is set.
==Advantages & Disadvantages==
{{Opinion}}
===Advantages===
* Frees up a hand slot which would be taken up by a {{Favilink|torch}} or {{Favilink|glowsphere}} in the early game.
* Available at start for True Kin regardless of starting arcology
* Much larger radius than most light sources
* Not carrying a light source grants the player some measure of stealth (most creatures can detect enemies only about 10-20 tiles away in total darkness)
* Aids in long-distance ranged combat
===Disadvantages===
* Face implant slot competes for a lot of debatably more useful implants.
* The color replacement greatly reduces information the player receives at a glance, which can lead to a failure to recognize threats like legendary hostile enemies.

Night vision works much like night-vision goggles, granting a toggleable ability to see into dark areas in a 40-tile radius. This will also cause everything to appear green-colored, unless the "disable full-screen color effects" option is set.

  • Not carrying a light source grants the player some measure of stealth (most creatures can detect enemies only about 10-20 tiles away in total darkness)
  • Aids in long-distance ranged combat
