Fake contrast: Difference between revisions

The vanilla engine has 16 light levels corresponding to the 256 light values, so increasing or decreasing lightnum as done here corresponds to increasing or decreasing the effective sector light for the wall by 16. A perfectly "horizontal" wall is brightened, while a perfectly "vertical" one is darkened; every other wall uses the light level of the front sector. (As an aside, given the vanilla [[COLORMAP]] lump contains 32 colormaps for light levels, why the engine uses only 16 is a mystery.)
