Low-light vision
Low-light vision is an intrinsic property that appears in dNetHack, notdNetHack and notnotdNetHack. Low-light vision grants heroes and monsters the ability to see dimly-lit squares well.
Description
Light sources in dNetHack and its derivatives emit bright light in the same radius as in NetHack, with dim light and very dim light extending further from those sources—this is dependent on the light source's radius, with the light becoming dimmer as it extends outside that radius. A light source in a dark area emits dim light from the edge of its normally-lit radius to a range of twice that radius, and from there the light becomes very dim within a range of three times that radius, with anything beyond this radius being unlit. Low-light vision thus enables the ability to see in squares with lower levels of illumination, dependent on its own "level": this means that a hero or monster with low-light vision of 2 can see lit and dimly-lit squares illuminated by light sources, while a hero or monster with low-light vision of 3 can also see very dimly-lit squares.
