Optics reflect light even when in shadow
New, WishlistPublic

Description

Seemingly all optics reflect light even when in the players shadow. Same is true for the Sights on some (modded) choppers.
Seems to be true for moonlight, flashlights, etc and the windscreens of choppers as well.

It really can annoy, but it work "as it should". Try to get in building, or stand face to sun - it will be absent. Limitating this in shadow zone is impossible for this game engine.
