Is it possible to make the unexplored areas dimmer?

press 'L' to draw line of sight and radar in game, but it lowers some other visual settings (terrain detail and shadows, i believe)

That just shows you line of sight, it doesn't deal with whether or not it has been explored. There is no "exploration" in Spring, although it could be added with some Lua fairly easily.

ouch maybe i chose the wrong word, i mean line of sight actually.
Pressing L, but I dont want to lower graphic setting, missing shadows.

Pretty sure that defaults to true and still doesn't show shadows.

If so, it's currently hardcoded that this turns off shadows. I'm not exactly sure about the technical motivation for this, ie. whether it's easy to change it.
