Hi,

I make a map with the objective: destroy a energy generator.
When the objective is completed, how i turn of lights and coronas in the map ?

I put for example a targetname into a light: "mylight1" and corona: "mycorona1".

Some idea how i turn off the light and hide the corona ??????

Dont work !

I put the targetname only in light - dont work
I put the targetname and #set for group (1 in my case) - dont work

The debugger in console show messages of error, what is the problem ???

Sorry, I thought you wanted this for script side, Your doing this through Radiant.
Would probally be alot easier to script it.

The light from light entities you add in radiant get compiled into the bsp they can't be changed after you compile your map . Green Beret is right you have to use dynamic lights by setting the light key on a model like fx/dummy.tik those type of lights can shine though walls if you set the radius too high though because they are not compiled they are spawned . This test map I made uses dynamic lights to simulate a traffic light . The pak has the .map in it if you want to look at that .
