Currently AFAIK every species sees up to the same lengh. Changing this could allow new distinctions between races, and new jewlery/egos, as well as mutations (myopia?).

For now the propoal would simply be to change the source code of the game so it is not a hard-coded number but a per-character number. Subsequently there would need to be discussion of what range each character would get: e.g. the formicid could keep a long-range antennae (where monsters are not defined) with short-range detailed sight.

demonspawn night stalker mutation reduces los radius by one

barachai have los radius 8

the code already supports changing los for the darkness spell, which reduces los (and stacks with night stalker)
