This is unofficial Steam conversion of Darkest Night SK mod by [b]Skyarkhangel[/b] that is part of [url=https://steamcommunity.com/linkfilter/?u=https%3A%2F%2Fgithub.com%2Fskyarkhangel%2FHardcore-SK]Hardcore SK modpack[/url][github.com] (August 2019).
As the mod is unauthorized, original mod author is NOT responsible for any errors that may occur in this mod. There are also some minor differences from the original mod (check change notes). This mod will be removed at the original mod's update or the modder's request.
[b]This mod adds new hidden faction 'Darkness', and therefore cannot be added & removed from existing savefile.[/b]
[i]" As you watch the approaching darkness you know death has come to Rimworld..
You turn to yell for the others.. 'RUN!' but the Darkness is already upon you.
Only blackness and your own screams remain...you cannot escape this fate.
The last thing you feel, before you fall into the Abyss, is your flesh being torn from your bones.
The Darkest Night has arrived. "[/i]
This mod adds several hours long event: all unlighted places will become pitch black, and invincible Eldritch horrors will arrive to prey on living humans, trashing unprotected electronics and doors in search of opportunity to catch colonists off-guard. They can only stay within darkness so colonists must protect themselves with nearby light source until the end of Darkest Night.

[i]"The man has believed themselves to be apex of the universe, and our ships probed the voids of space to satisfy our innate desire for expansion. With confidence of oblivious tick, we have urbanized this derelict planet and prospered... then from the darkness came the irrationality manifest, incomprehensible masters where only malice can be understood using our perception of reality. The ruin is imminent. Dance amongst the transient shadows, for light has been lost and Darkness is your destination."[/i]
'Permanent Darkness' condition can be further tweaked on mod settings to make Darkness appear only when the sun is down.
