Thanks for this, it's a pretty frequent occurrence for my sims to be outside at 2 am and suddenly get thrown into pitch darkness , much appreciated and useful !

And yet, another mod that just makes sense. Thanks for this!

I used Numenor's Smarter Lights mod for a long time, but this one makes a lot more sense. (I was especially annoyed by lights turning on for walkbys after dark while my sim was at work.) Thanks for sharing!

I love this mod so much but for some reason it doesnt work in my game, do you think it might be glitching with my lighting mod by spooky muffin?

it doesn't work in my game either and i have spooky muffin's lighting mod also. i think i'll just remove the lighting mod because imo this mod is more important!

There is an issue in the game which leaves apartment neighbours' sleep-state as "asleep" when the game pushes them to leave their rooms. Maxis never fixed this. You can get my new Apartment Neighbour Mod which fixes this issue in addition to other fixes and features.

Awesome, thanks! Now I found another issue: when you command a sim walk to lot... he will not light any room he goes through in his way out. I think the same happens when going to sleep/nap autonomously.

This is an intentional feature of the Advanced Version. In those cases, lights will only turn on if the room has no windows.

I really liked this mod, thanks! But I've seen that the lights don't auto turn on when there's a selectable bigfoot in the room. Have you ever noticed that?
