Description
This class provides spotlight related operations, i.e. whether or not to cast shadows, light color, light ray direction, light strength, etc.

Member Functions
GetDarkenShadowStrength ( self )
Get the Spotlight's shadow strength at a given point in time (0 to 100).
See Also: SetDarkenShadowStrength
Returns
- Spotlight's shadow strength - float
1 light_object = RLPy.RScene.FindObject(RLPy.EObjectType_Light, "Spotlight") # Find the spotlight by name
2
3 #get light shadow strength
4 print(light_object.GetDarkenShadowStrength())
GetRange ( self )
Get the Spotlight's range distance.
See Also: SetRange
Returns
- Spotlight's range attribute - float
1 light_object = RLPy.RScene.FindObject(RLPy.EObjectType_Light, "Spotlight") # Find the spotlight by name
2
3 #get light range
4 print(light_object.GetRange())
GetSpotLightBeam ( self, nAngle, nFalloff )
Get the Spotlight's light beam attributes, e.g. beam angle and spill light attenuation (falloff intensity).
See Also: SetSpotLightBeam
Parameters
- nAngle [OUT] Spotlight's angle value - int
- nFalloff [OUT] Spotlight's falloff value - int
Returns
- Success - RLPy.RStatus.Success
