📋 About This Mod
Better Seaglide
Due to conflicting problems with RandyKnapps WhiteLights Mod i've decided to disabled the changing of the seaglide light color if you have WhiteLights installed, if you wanna change the color with Whitelights installed then use WhiteLights to change the color, you can still change the cone size,brightness and range if WhiteLights is Installed.
Light intensity changes the brightness of the seaglide light
Cone Size changes the light cone so the light covers more screen
Range at the range the light will reach to.
Ever wanted to change the color of your seaglide? Well now you can.
In Options>Mod Options If you enable the check box "Show Seaglide Color Settings" then go back to the main menu then back to mod options sliders will show up to change the RGB Values of your seaglide. If you would like to hide the sliders you can uncheck "Show Seaglide Color" unchecking the box will not change your seaglide back to default color(it's so you don't have so many sliders on your menu)
Too change the color of the seaglide light you need to go to options>mod options> then enable the color check box then go back one menu and go to mod options again and you should see some RGB sliders. If they don't appear you didn't go back far enough. Just leave the options menu and then open it again.
Future plans
You'll see them as i release them.
