Well holy sheet...

Hrmm... GETENTITYILLUM - I guess there is a function to get entity illumination - wonder why they setup a whole new entity for that in the stealth-mod demonstration. Does open some possibilities... Though I suspect it's client side.

What does this mean and what possibilities does it open?

Might possibly open the possibility of stealth functions - telling whether a player is in a certain level of lighting or not, etc. The only example I've seen of this previously involved stuffing your whole map with light definition entities.

Having it client-side would actually be a good thing. Means only the client processes minor fluctuations in light and can inform the server of significant ones.

The last bit of that is always tricky. However, wouldn't need it to be checking lights every frame, just once a second or so. I've not yet checked on how GETENTITYILLUM works - whether it'd be easy to make a script $get() or whatnot.

You kids and your lack of respect for the appearance of Etnies. It's a good omen! I shall set sail on the morrow and catch all the fish.
