Description

Description:

Sets intensity of light directly. setLightBrightness uses setLightIntensity internally, therefore avoid using setLightBrightness alltogether to avoid confusion

ⓘ

Intensity formula is as follows (IF SET VIA setLightBrightness):

Intensity = Brightness ^ 2 * 2500;

Test code

[4096, 4096, 10] spawn { private _brightness = 1; private _intensity = _brightness ^ 2 * 2500; private _obj = "Sign_Sphere10cm_F" createVehicleLocal _this; private _light = "#lightpoint" createVehicleLocal _this; _light setLightDayLight true; _light setLightAmbient [1, 1, 1]; _light setLightColor [1, 1, 1]; _light setLightBrightness _brightness; sleep 0.2; _brightness = getLightingAt _obj select 3; _light setLightIntensity _intensity; sleep 0.2; _intensity = getLightingAt _obj select 3; systemChat format ["%1 (%2, %3)", _brightness == _intensity, _brightness, _intensity]; deleteVehicle _light; deleteVehicle _obj; };

In Arma 3 ver1.14 setLightIntensity will overwrite the previous effect processed by setLightBrightness on the same light source, vice versa. And both of them currently play the same role on brightness, for example:

_light setLightIntensity 3000; // same as _light setLightBrightness 1;
