| Light Node Represents a light source. |
| Syntax: node light [node_name] Properties endnode
|
| Description: There are a large number of light properties. Some of these properties are unknown and there may be more.
|
| Properties: parent [node_name] - the parent node in the tree. All nodes have this property. Top level nodes use NULL. The following three properties are optional: position [X] [Y] [Z] - The position in 3d space of this node. orientation [X-Axis] [Y-Axis] [Z-Axis] [rotation_ammount] - the node is rotated around the axis given in x,y,z wirecolor [red] [green] [blue] - This probably defines the color for the object's wireframe. color [red] [green] [blue] - The color of the light source. radius [float] - Probably the range of the light. ambientonly [0|1] - This controls if the light is only an ambient lightsource or if it is directional as well. isDynamic [0|1] - Unknown. affectDynamic [0|1] - Unknown. lightpriority [??] - Unknown. I'm not sure what this does, but a reasonable guess would be it controls when the lightsource casts a shadow. We know that in NWN only the strongest lightsource in an area casts shadows, this may be the value that determines that. Or it could be a flag of some kind. shadow [0|1] - Probably determines if this light is capable of casting shadows. lensflares [0|1] - Possibly causes the light source to produce a lens flare effect, sounds cool anyway. fadingLight [0|1] - Unknown. Might activate some kind of distance fall off for the light. Or it could do just about anything.
