correct as-is City lights have a green tint on moonless nights an hour before sunrise

this one took some digging to figure out. test mission and screenshots attached. Pretty niche and bizarrely specific bug but its pretty noticeable.





I don't recall this being an issue before 2.7 but i dont remember tbh

PG green tint test.miz

Here is what it looks like on my screen with Stable 2.7, gamma set at 1.8.  Click images to enlarge.

suggest you set local time to an hour before sunrise, as the title describes. your image appears to be at 18:41

[Bob1943]

04:01:26

A little more red tint to the lights than at 18:41

I get the red tint too but your mission has half-moon illumination on that date. Try October 2nd, 2016 at 4.30 am and accelerate time. the city gains a distinctly green hue and then reverts to normal as the sky lightens for the dawn. 

Tried again just now on clean install with today's patch

Yes, I see some green tint appearing in the 05:16:13 shot, then it goes away as the hint of sunrise occurs.

Part of the issue is that we have the legacy ground textures that are lit up, its requested to remove these fake light sources so that the ground is only lit by building and street lights, etc. So I think some of the green tint comes from that, seems worse at a distance, and seems better with a darker gamma setting, I also use 1.8.

I think this will evolve as the lighting evolves in the sim, it is much better than it was, and will continue to get better.
