- getShadowDistance does not return the actual set shadow distance. With scripting command setShadowDistance it is possible to set it to min of 0 and with profile config to min of 50. However the lower threshold of getShadowDistance is 100. So it is impossible to check what is the actual setting for the shadow if below 100.

- This leads to the undesired effect of casting shadow: http://feedback.arma3.com/view.php?id=19308 The shadow was set to 20, but if I was to check it it would have said 100. With 100 the effect is bearable. Suggestion, with lower settings for the shadow, the effect around player should be either removed or smoothly transitioned.
- setShadowDistance saves into profile: http://feedback.arma3.com/view.php?id=16929 After game restart it stays as it was set up by the last setShadowDistance command and not by user profile.
