Type of improvement:

Bring back the "golden hour". Bring back the original beautiful sun sets and sun rises.

Explanation of proposals:

In photography, the golden hour (sometimes known as magic hour) is the first and last hour of sunlight during the day,[1] when a specific photographic effect is achieved due to the quality of the light.

Typically, lighting is softer (more diffuse) and warmer in hue, and shadows are longer. When the sun is near the horizon, sunlight travels through more of the atmosphere, reducing the intensity of the direct light, so that more of the illumination comes from indirect light from the sky, reducing the lighting ratio. More blue light is scattered, so that light from the sun appears more reddish. In addition, the sun's small angle with the horizon produces longer shadows.


Since you are working on a new graphics engine please bring back the beautiful natural colors of the sunset and sunrise present when the game was released.

Benefits:

The game would look a lot more natural and beautiful and would make the flying during that time of day a beautiful experience again.

Few examples:







Thank you.
