Added dark nights, field lights and Jeep headlights

Craftable torches and flashlights light the night, while the Jeep has its own switchable beams.

I made midnight genuinely dark and tied sight range to daylight. A wood-only torch at a field workbench now gives a warm light, flame and crackling sound; the flashlight projects a directional beam.

T switches equipped hand lights on and off. L controls the Jeep headlights, with the settings carried in the saved equipment and vehicle state.

“I made midnight genuinely dark and tied sight range to daylight. A wood-only torch at a field workbench now gives a warm light, flame and crackling sound; the flashlight projects a directional beam.”

I checked the native light intensities, crafting costs, equipment state and restored headlight settings on the RTX 3060. The diary uses an explicitly initialized night inspection, rather than claiming a naturally elapsed full day.

The sustained driving check still had a 566.6 ms worst frame. This lighting change is not a claim of hitch-free movement or a subjective audio listening pass.
