📋 About This Mod

True Flashlight

Immersive Tactical Lighting Gadget

A complete Redscript reimagining of portable lighting, featuring power mangement, NPC detection, tactical utility, weapon-linked physics, and modded equipments support.


Overview

True Flashlight is a comprehensive systemic overhaul that transforms the standard flashlight into a functional piece of tactical gear. Moving away from the "floating camera light" of the past, this mod introduces a beam that reacts to your weapon's position, NPCs that can detect your presence in the dark, and a high-intensity tactical mode designed for clearing rooms and breaching hostile territory.


Key Features

Realistic Weapon Lighting

  • []Muzzle-Linked Physics: Your light is treated as a physical attachment. If your gun muzzle points away from your crosshair (during reloads, sprinting, or weapon sway), the beam follows the barrel, realistically spreading and dimming based on the diverged angle.[/]

    []Equipment Dependency(Optional, enabled by default): Toggle the requirement for specific gear. When enabled, the flashlight only functions if you have a supported scope attachment or headgear equipped.

    []Type 2067[/]

    []Jue[/]

    []HPO Kanone MAX Mk. 77[/]

    []Scratched helmet with double visor[/]

    []PTFE helmet with anti-fog visor[/]

    []Battered full-face helmet[/]

    []Expandable JSON Support: The mod is built to be compatible with your entire mod list. You can easily add modded scope or headgear by adding their IDs to the r6\storages\TrueFlashlight\true_flashlight.json config file.[/]

    Hostile AI Reactions & Stealth

    Your light is now a visible part of the world. In restricted or dangerous zones, using your flashlight carries a strategic risk:

    []Advanced Detection Logic: NPCs will investigate if they spot your beam hitting walls or floors. Shining the light directly at an enemy will trigger an immediate alert.[/]

    []Native Performance Optimization: Built entirely in Redscript. Unlike other mods, this does not use frame-by-frame polling (onUpdate), ensuring zero impact on your FPS even during complex detection checks.[/]

    [*]Acoustic Signatures: The mechanical sound of the toggle can be heard by nearby enemies, potential
