Lighting

Is there a way of keeping the DTS objects from being lit by one or more of the suns? I thought setting the ligthGroupName variable would do the trick, but it didn't help...

If you have a dataBlock, I believe you can set receiveLight to false. I'm not entirely sure.

Set receiveSunLight to false or just uncheck it in the mission editor inspector. Should be what you are looking for.

That doesn't work because that stops it from receiving ANY sunlight. I just needed to make it not received light from ONE of the suns.

Solved it tho, buy deriving the Sun class, and tweaking a couple properties. Thanks
