MOONGLASSES - 1.0
Craft new item Moonglasses to activate all 3 sunglasses buffs at the same time:
* highlight plants, NPCs and mutants in green (vanilla Classic Sunglasses effect)
* highlight collectible items in blue (vanilla Sunglasses effect)
* highlight machines in red (vanilla Modern Sunglasses effect)

And the best thing - you don't even have to wear them!

1. Installation
Copy either m_1_moonglasses_normal.pak or m_1_moonglasses_hard.pak into Elex/data/packed directory. Done!

To verify if mod is installed correctly, check description of Classic Sunglasses. If there is information that you can craft Moonglasses out of them, it means mod is working!

2. How to use
Create Moonglasses at Workbench. You find recipe under Amulets, but if you installed normal version of the mod, you won't need Goldsmith ability to craft them!

Ingredients also depends on which version of the mod you chose.

Normal:
* 2 x Classic Sunglasses

Hard:
* 1500 x Elexit
* 1 x Classic Sunglasses
* 1 x Sunglasses
* 1 x Modern Sunglasses

After crafting Moonglasses, buff to highlight machines will be activated. To activate rest of the buffs and highlight plants, NPCs, mutants and items, equip Moonglasses.

Moon is not so shiny tonight? Take Moonglasses off! All buffs will stay activated.

3. Uninstallation
1. Remove m_1_moonglasses_normal.pak and/or m_1_moonglasses_hard.pak from Elex/data/packed directory.
