The debris that you guys have made in sedina h9 is very cool -- would love to see more of it with meandering passageways filled with smoke and fire and darkness... but to navigate these areas an activatable front facing ship light would be helpful.

Said headlights should be large, shapely and have a high drain of 40 or more....

Yeah, agreed. One of the challenges is technically the number of dynamic lights in the scene, and how that impacts things (imagine watching 50 other NPCs who also have "headlights").

And, now you can perhaps imagine why we're spending a year re-writing the engine.

One of many, many different reasons, and many different gameplay-experience goals I'm trying to reach.

I'd love ships with built-in headlights, incarnate make this happen :D
