Night is not dark

I look outside right now in a thunderstorm and it looks almost the same.

I should barely be able to see the trader compound there at 1:30 in the morning. There is no point to getting a flashlight or NVG's if it never gets dark.

Not a bug, if desired you can adjust the brightness down to suit your preferences.

Gamma is to high. Used to put mine up on purpose on the legacy version, just so I wouldn't have to worry about finding a mining helmet right away lol

I have reported this also in old forums bug report. Made some testing trying to get night time dark. Brightness setting is 0% from my game settings.
Then found this:

<!-- Disabled ambient moon effect -->
<!-- <property name="ambientMoon" value=".8, .4"/> -->

And the game turns like night time is dark as it should be. This ambientmoon value has no effect on brightness. Pretty much any value you insert there has minimal effect. But when disabled it is literally and visually night and day difference.
