I was about to add this, but skipped it since it's part of the WRM.

Ok, but what does it do? I mean will it change parameters of our soldiers only or maybe aliens' too?

Vision changes affect friends and foes alike (this is true for any changes made to the visibilitytype.txt file). For details on what's been changed I suggest that you read the history file that's provided in the mod's archive.

Ok, thank you. I forgot that when you do something you do it (and document it) the way it should be done.

The movement detectionchanges, are thoose related to the doppler scanner?
QUOTE changed: Hearing no longer sees through walls and obstacles (unmodded value true) Doesn't this effectively make them obsolete? After all, any target within hearingrange that isn't covered by a wall or obstacle will also be (far) within visionrange. Or am I missing something here?

Actually, nothing. That line in the readme file is a leftover from another one of my mods I copy/pasted the text from. Sorry about that.

Someone should make a list of the best mods available... and put this one in the #1 spot! It makes combat a lot more fun, without unbalancing the game.

i know i always been the fussy one for details.....
i agree visual ranges was far to short by default, but doubling seems too much, well at least in respect to night time is it possible to keep the doubled daytime visuals but shorten the night time range significantly |

Seeing out to range 24 at night hasn't struck me as unreasonable. Especially since an enemy has to be closer still to be targeted. 24 is max SMG range. The unmodded night range (at 12) was shorter than even pistol range.
