Disabling a spotlight

**lordmestari** · 10-01-2011, 12:07 PM

I have a red spotlight in a room. I want it to be active when I enter a script area. I unchecked the "active" box in the level editor, although in game it is still visible. How do you disable a spotlight?

And yes, I have deleted the cache files, if it has anything to do with this problem.

Simple. Example this: SetLightVisible("SpotLight_3", false); "OnStart" section this and when you enter the area:
SetLightVisible("SpotLight_3", true)

For some reason, deactivating lights through the level editor won't work, at least that's what I've found.

That did the trick, thank you a lot!

Never tried, I guess not.
