Light Examples
Using a PointLight
local part = script.Parent
local pointLight = Instance.new("PointLight")
pointLight.Parent = part
pointLight.Brightness = 2 -- Controls the intensity of the light
pointLight.Color = Color3.fromRGB(255, 255, 255) -- White light
pointLight.Range = 16 -- How far the light reaches
pointLight.Shadows = true -- Enable shadows
pointLight.Enabled = true -- Ensure the light is turned on
-- Function to toggle the light on and off every 1 second
while true do
pointLight.Enabled = not pointLight.Enabled -- Toggle the light's enabled state
wait(1) -- Wait for 1 second before toggling again
end
Roblox Studio
Using a SpotLight
local part = script.Parent
local spotLight = Instance.new("SpotLight")
spotLight.Parent = part
spotLight.Brightness = 8 -- Controls the intensity of the light
spotLight.Color = Color3.fromRGB(255, 255, 255) -- White light
spotLight.Range = 16 -- How far the light reaches
spotLight.Shadows = true -- Enable shadows
spotLight.Angle = 90 -- Width of the cone (in degrees)
spotLight.Face = Enum.NormalId.Front -- Direction the light is facing
spotLight.Enabled = true -- Ensure the light is turned on
-- Function to toggle the light on and off every 1 second
while true do
spotLight.Enabled = not spotLight.Enabled -- Toggle the light's enabled state
wait(1) -- Wait for 1 second before toggling again
end
Roblox Studio
Using a SurfaceLight
local part = script.Parent
local pointLight = Instance.new("PointLight")
pointLight.Parent = part
pointLight.Brightness = 2 -- Controls the intensity of the light
pointLight.Color = Color3.fromRGB(255, 255, 255) -- White light
pointLight.Range = 16 -- How far the light reaches
pointLight.Shadows = true -- Enable shadows
pointLight.Enabled = true -- Ensure the light is turned on
-- Function to toggle the light on and off every 1 second
while true do
pointLight.Enabled = not pointLight.Enabled -- Toggle the light's enabled state
wait(1) -- Wait for 1 second before toggling again
