There seems to be an up tick in Political commentary in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site we know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religiours commentary out of the fourms.
If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.
Please note any post refering to a politicion will be considered political even if it is intended to be humor. Our experience is these topics have a way of dividing the forums and causing deep resentment amoung members. It is a poison to the community. We apprciate compliance with the rules.

Changing the night color is pretty easy. Here's an example of a typical "red night light" entry:
[Color]
Day=255,255,255
Night=120,4,4
Luminous=202,220,147
Obviously, the three numbers on each line refer to an RGB color.
The "day" color is blank or "none".
The "night" color is heavily based on Red with some slight blue and green "tint" so none of the panel BMP colors disappear.
The "luminous" line (to me, anyway) is used to light the 2D gauges at night.
You can match your 2D night panel to the VC cockpit light pretty easily.
Just use notepad to open the VC light fx file. You'll see the RGB values.
You can use this info in both directions, using the fx RGB values in the 2D panel or using the panel's RGB values to create a new VC light.

Gah! I wanted to copy some stuff and reply, but you beat me to it.
Thanks Bob!
That goes into it further. I think I'll patch it into the Panels SDK for future reference.
