I hate when in a mission, then everything goes black because of being behind earth or moon.

Then I though if DGIV had big lights like searchlights.
What you think?

Hint: Look at your MFDs. Watch the Mini-Hud thing to see if you've entered the atmosphere (Dyn Press).

Unless you're doing it for the view. Not much can be done then, my friend.

Seems to me that someone around here is working on a "lights" add-on. From the screen shots I saw it was pretty
good....

No add-on has real lights!
Orbiter doesn't support more than one source of light (the sun)
The add-ons whitch have "lights" have only texture like light (e.g. CTV by Well & No Matter)

Try this:
In the Orbiter Launchpad, crank up "Ambient light level" under "Visual effects"

Maybe we should start putting search lights on vessels or else, its a bad idea engaging Holdalt at 20 ft altitude trying to find cape. You might get

lost.

Ha, Ha, just joking.

Anyway, caculate your trajectory so you reentry
and land at cape in the day. Silly me
