New NIGHT lighting is just worst. PIC related.

I absolutely hate the change they made to the lighting at night. It's just worst overall. Nights should be total pitch black, especially on a planet where there is no civilization and no artificial light to reduce that pitch black.

As you can see in these pictures, the new night looks much more artificial and makes the Lights I built useless and not as efficient.

One idea is maybe make these two transiton from one to another, from blue night to pitch black night when the night trully settles in. Otherwise I want an option to toggle the old night light in my games/server.

I also despise the changes made to nighttime lighting on the planets. It completely defeats the purpose of having lights in the game. What's the point of building and using lights if you can already see everything perfectly fine at night? Nights on planets should actually be dark, not bright enough to navigate around without any lighting. I really hope they revert this change or at least add an option to restore the original darkness.

The solution should be better features to handle the pitch black of night/deep space shadows, not making it less dark, which doesn't really make sense unless that added light is coming from somewhere (full moon/full planet) in the sky or whatever.
