LightDefinition :: struct or array[struct] Example code

Specifies a light source. This is loaded either as a single light source or as an array of light sources.

Properties

type optional :: "basic" or "oriented"
picture optional :: Sprite

Only loaded, and mandatory if type is "oriented".

Only loaded, and mandatory if type is "oriented".

rotation_shift optional :: RealOrientation

Only loaded if type is "oriented".

Only loaded if type is "oriented".

intensity :: float

Brightness of the light in the range [0, 1], where 0 is no light and 1 is the maximum light.

Brightness of the light in the range [0, 1], where 0 is no light and 1 is the maximum light.

size :: float

The radius of the light in tiles. [...]

The radius of the light in tiles. [...]

source_orientation_offset optional :: RealOrientation
add_perspective optional :: bool
flicker_interval optional :: uint8
flicker_min_modifier optional :: float
flicker_max_modifier optional :: float
offset_flicker optional :: bool

Offsets tick used to calculate flicker by position hash. [...]

Offsets tick used to calculate flicker by position hash. [...]

shift optional :: Vector
color optional :: Color

Color of the light.

Color of the light.

minimum_darkness optional :: float

Properties

type :: "basic" or "oriented" optional

Default: "basic"

picture :: Sprite optional

Only loaded, and mandatory if type is "oriented".

rotation_shift :: RealOrientation optional

Default: 0

Only loaded if type is "oriented".

intensity :: float

Brightness of the light in the range [0, 1], where 0 is no light and 1 is the maximum light.

size :: float

The radius of the light in tiles. Note that the light gets darker near the edges, so the effective size of the light will appear to be smaller.

source_orientation_offset :: RealOrientation optional

Default: 0

add_perspective :: bool optional

Default: false

flicker_interval :: uint8 optional

Default: 0

flicker_min_modifier :: float optional

Default: 1.0

flicker_max_modifier :: float optional

Default: Value of flicker_min_modifier

offset_flicker :: bool optional

Default: false

Offsets tick used to calculate flicker by position hash. Useful to desynchronize flickering of multiple stationary lights.

shift :: Vector optional

color :: Color optional

Default: {r=1, g=1, b=1}

Color of the light.

minimum_darkness :: float optional

Default: 0
