This guide explains how to use the Lighting Control UI found aboard the starships in Starship Simulator. These Room Lighting Controls allow for controlling the rooms' light settings.

Interaction

To operate the UI:

move close enough to the panel to activate the buttons
position yourself so that you can hover your cursor over the desired button on the keypad screen
press Left Mouse Button to activate the button
you can also hold the Mouse Cursor Unlock (Default E key) to activate a movable mouse cursor overlay, which may make selecting specific buttons easier

Basic Operation

The Room Lighting UI has three basic functions:

Condition

select OFF or ON to connect or disconnect the electrical feed to the room's lights

Brightness

select ◂ or ▸ to change the brightness of the lights. The percentage is based on the maximum light output or luminosity.

Temperature

select ◂ or ▸ to change the temperature of the light based on the Correlated Colour Temperature (CCT) scale. The lower the Temp (Kelvin) value, the warmer (yellowish) the light; the higher the Temp (Kelvin) value, the cooler (bluish) the light.
