[Suggestion] Range control over lighting bricks

[Kaiser-Indrasil]

There is a lot of things I don't like about Space Engineers but their light block settings are one of the best. You can customise different things like:

• intensity
• range
• falloff (which is a fanction of intensity over range) - not essential though
• offset (which moves the light source away from the light block) - kinda hacky and not essential but enables some creative designs like fake glowing armour
• blink interval
• blink length - percent of the blink interval which is weird. Using seconds with two decimal places would be much more intuitive.

The intensity, blink interval, and blink length can be already set up with logic, and that's good, but I'm really needing a Range option, too, so I can recreate this effect without lighting up the neighbouring interior space every 2 or so seconds ;)

No blinking for now for internal light, but it might come in the future. I want to add also "glow" light, ie light that dont shade blocks around, for effect like you want. Thanks

Oh, glow lights would be a godsend! I'm fine with the internal lights not blinking for now since I can easily bypass that with logic by turning them on and off rapidly.

My main point is the addition of range. At range set to 0 they could just glow brightly without casting light over the surrounding voxels.

You can set a lights intensity by linking a Sequencer to it, I haven't checked but it might also reduce the range

[Kaiser-Indrasil]

It does, however I need a high-intensity, low-range solution in my particular case.
