Why does the lighting changing when switching graphics settings?
I play on low setting, and when going into the store and then switching to Ultra and then back to Low, the lighting changes from ugly blue to something that looks really nice, and it persists from the store to the character selection until you start the game and I'm not sure why does it change at all? Is it a bug?
Low graphics - haven't been in the store yet.
From Low to Ultra to Low again graphics - after coming back from the store.

It could just be an after effect from the rapid resolution changes.
That's why some games ask that you restart your game to get the full change. This game doesn't do that since it doesn't have to, but you can see it would be beneficial if you do. It COULD be a bug with the lighting after you rapidly change the settings, but it could also just be the resolution clashing with the previous one mid-change, which isn't as uncommon as you might think it would be.

Anyway, i recommend you playing on low. Everything is more brighter, you can see traps that on ultra are invisible, the red stain is visible through walls.

I mean, if you don't mind the low texture quality than yeah.
Some people do, that's why they play on either medium or high, if their PCs can handle it that is.

I don't really look at walls while i am playing so it's not really that important :p

Well it's not just the walls, it's also the weapons, the trees, the buildings (and by extension the walls I guess), the Generators, the Killers, the Survivors, the grass, etc.
Low textures can really affect everything you look at, but if you don't mind that than it's not a big deal.

It looks like that there is a blue source of light, and it gets deleted when visiting the store and then changing the graphics.
I'm not 100% sure tho.

Yeah I see it in the top image before you go to the shop to remove it.
It could just be an error when switching between both resolutions so quickly, but it could also just be a bug. In any case, if you really think it's something that should be taken care of, than I can link you to the Bug Report sub-forum to confirm if it's a bug or not. If it's not, than they'll let you know. If it is, than they will acknowledge it when they get to it.
here's the link to the bug report sub-forum
