What is this?
This is a script that allow you to turn off all lights in a area, useful for some stealth like missions.

This script make some use of the switchLight command or more exactly [this, "OFF"] remoteExec ["switchLight",0,true]; that is its Multiplayer dedicated server compatible form, you can use many combinations as you want, this is just a test mission to show what can be done.

How to use:
how to set up like this mission:
Get this code here: https://pastebin.com/5qXsajBC
Paste inside the init of the Land_TransferSwitch_01_F (Transfer Switch)
This code is ready for multiplayer and dedicated server
This is just a test mission to showcase the script, no extra download needed

Everyone is allowed to reverse engineer and copy this mission scripts though I am not available to explain how it works sometimes I leave comments on the scripts to remember what I did, but if you use any content from here please give the credits, I hope your works come out great too!

@Roque_THE_GAMER
Is there some way to make a switch turned off on start of mission, for example, if your task to restore light in certain area ?

@Roque_THE_GAMER A little late to this now, but I found out why the switch was blowing up on me. The mod known as "Exploding Objects" makes the Transfer Switch an explode-able item. I guess I can't use that mod with this script lol.

That's good to know. Thanks

All assets that are not maps, vehicles and gear/weapons can be used in any scenarios, even DLCs weapons/gear can be used by AI

Ah brilliant. Out of curiosity, is that the case for all DLC assets?
Roque_THE_GAMER  [author] Jan 1, 2022 @ 8:44am 
The Land_TransferSwitch_01_F (Transfer Switch) is in the vanila game, its a asset from the contact DLC but you can use it in any mission without having the DLC.

I just figured out that the script does what I asked lol, my bad. I just need to find a similar asset to the land transfer switch that is the vanilla game.

I got around the exploding generator by changing the '_target SetDamage' value to 0.1.
@Rogue_THE_GAMER is there way or a script that will enable you to turn lights on and off. For example I want to make a range where I can train members in light and then they practice with NVG's

the script damages the Switch and its intended, but mine does not explode, is that a mod you are using? can you still use the Switch?
