Compatibility
Compatible with 1.50.x game version.
Brightness Setting
If you think it’s bright/dark, you can change the backlight setting for yourself. Press F4 and change your Dashboard Backlight setting.
Discovered and Undiscovered Road Colors
I disabled the color change in navigation for realism. You should look at the world map for discovered and undiscovered roads. (or you can change the colors for yourself by editing the def/map_data.sii file.)
Auto Switch
It is not possible to use both day and night versions by activating them together. The version you give high priority in the mod manager will work. Because it is impossible to automatically change the day-night version in the game.
Colors (Or Icons) Are Still the Same
If you have activated the navigation mod but still the colors (or icons) do not change, it means that another UI mod you are using is causing a problem. If you place the navigation mod at the top in the mod manager, the colors (or icons) issue will be fixed.
Voice
There are already many real Google Maps voice mods made by different modders. You can use any of them you want with this mod.
ETA etc.
The aim of this mod is to make vanilla navigation screens look like Google Maps Navigation, with small but effective touches. Therefore, I do not want to complicate the navigation screens and this mod by adding this type of data. And I’m sure many people won’t want to use it either. If I add it one day, I will release it as an optional addon. (I don’t make any promises because I can’t spare much time for my mods anymore.)
Convoy
I don’t have detailed information about Convoy. But if I understand correctly, it makes more sense to activate the optional feature for server side only mods. And this mod is not server side only. Everyone on the server must download it.
