How can the Moon be displayed.

When I use the calendar and have the dates set for days where Full Moon was there at night nothing happens. Pitch Black night.

Example on the 2nd of September 1944 it was full moon at 22:35 over Berlin. So it should appear on the Rheinland map sky, but nothing can be seen.

Is there a way to control the Moon with the calendar or any other way ?

did a mission yesterday where bright moon was needed, i chose nighttime and changed through the days selecting the date that iluminated landscape in the 3d view the most. Not elegant, but worked for me.

In fact I am wrong here and should apologize to the devs.

The full moon does appear at that date the 2 of September 1944 at 22:30.

The reason that I was mistaken is that there is practically no moonlight, and the sky was extremely dark. In a real full moon environment has much more light as it is simulated in the game.

The moon was half way up in the sky. So maybe some diffuse environmental light is in need of some tweaking.

Moon is set according to date and time.

Yes right, the problem is the luminosity of the moon that is not strong enough, at least on the Rheinland Map.

Curious,  this moonlighting business however can be interpreted in various ways ..

By playing with the monitor settings and the graphics parameter "gamma correction" you can improve artificially somewhat the moonlight diffuse "lighting", but it remains too specific and individual. Anyway night missions are a very small set compared to the overall missions that are being made. Nevertheless there were a lot of night missions during WWII on the european theater.
