Modes: 90degrees from the ground (straight up), 45 d in every direction (diagonal), and off; punch node to toggle modes; range of 20 nodes :-)

Great :) I was wondering how to highlight a waterfall and you "made" the answer.

woulda been cool against the waterfall of my "starbase" (floating city) too if i still had the map :S lol

also useful when you fast/fly far away from any settlements, i find my way back easier lol

Really nice!

im thinking of adding an extra mode: automatic. where the light moves around :-)

+1 That would be awesome!

up and down or more circular?

circular

shouldnt be too dificult, though the moving spotlights will almost have to be a seperate mod since it will probably have 20+ states lol

Tested your mod.
Suggestions:
- make a blinking variant (abm?)
- add to the spotlights:light node:

Your phone or window isn't wide enough to display the code box. If it's a phone, try rotating it to landscape mode.

Code: Select all

selection_box = {
        type = "fixed",
        fixed = {0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0},
    },

I was supposed to program a pattern into the spotlights, though blinking could work just as well. though the more modes i add the more likely ill have to split up the splotlights by function, as it stands it can take a while to toggle the spotlight to the last mode when playings on P4 lol

What does that bit of code do?

i also noticed they work underwater though they only illuminate above the water, is this desirable behaviour?

A spotlight should illuminate the water surrounding it as well as solid objects above and below the water line, if possible.

I occasionally place torches while working underwater, they work well for that, if shorter range than a spotlight.

It will make your light-node non selectable.

omg thank you for that, its been driving me nuts since i started testing lol
