possible script:
//_____________________
void OnStart()
{
AddEntityCollideCallback("Player", "SCRIPT_AREA_NAME", "LampsOff_func", true, 1); //this is the area collide
}
void LampsOff_func(string &in asParent, string &in asChild, int alState)
{
SetLampLit("LAMPNAME_1", false);
SetLampLit("LAMPNAME_2", false);
SetLampLit("LAMPNAME_3", false);
//And so-on with each lamp you want to shut off.
}

SetLampLit("LAMPNAME_1", false);
SetLampLit("LAMPNAME_2", false);
SetLampLit("LAMPNAME_3", false);
//And so-on with each lamp you want to shut off.
}
SetLampLit(string& asName, bool abLit, bool abEffects);
the bool abEffects adds a sound/particle effect or something when the lamp is lit/unlit, so setting it true might be good.
SetLampLit("LAMPNAME", false, true);

OK thanks , another question, when you do level doors, do you do the entire map on one file or do you make a bunch of them?
RE: Candle fade - Khyrpa - 11-08-2011
Thats makes almost no sense
Level door functions as a door between different map files. So if you want to teleport a player to a different part inside the same map file, just use some teleport script.
