Is there a cog verb that tells you how lit a thing is? It just has to be the regular sector light, not dynamic.

I want it so I can make the AI less able to see you when you're in a dark area.

Thanks!

Well, is it a sector, or is it a thing? If it's a thing you would use: light = GetThinglight(thing); , if it's for a sector, lightval = GetSectorLight(sector);returns the extralight value.

Together we stand.

I don't mean the extralight of a sector/thing, what I mean is the amount JK lights a thing, i.e. when you're in a dark sector Kyle is dark, and when you're in a light sector Kyle is light.

I need to get the value that JK uses to determine how much it lights Kyle (or any other thing).

Thanks for any help!
