Lighting??
« on: 20 Feb 2005, 00:28:03 »
How do you turn streetlights on... i dont necessarily need to be able to switch them on and off.. just have them start on (its a night mission)... Is there a way to be able to have them start turned on without scripting?? and if not whats the best script to use. any help would be appreciated.

If you're talking about original streetlamps, the command is switchlight.    But they should be on already.    

If they are addon streetlamps it may be switchlight or inflame.    

Some things that look like streetlamps do not light up.
Plenty of reviewed ArmA missions for you to play

Streetlights have three settings: on, off and auto.   The default is auto which means on when it is dark off when it isn't so you sould not need any scripting provided they are standard streetlights

Just a helpful thought, you may want to down load some Streetlights Addon.  There are some little villages that don't have streetlamps but as a mission maker you would want some lights. I have and it has helped me in certain mission sititutions.
  Thats my two cents.  ;)

You can turn them on with this inflame true command ;)

I think that these streetlamps are under "empty", but I'm not sure.
So once you've placed the streetlamp put in their init: "this inflame true" and it should do the trick.

Well it seems they are under empty;
if you look into the pbo you have
displayName="Streetlamp White";
displayName="Streetlamp Red";
displayName="Streetlamp Blue";
and displayName="Streetlamp Yellow";  ???
