    Default Searchlights....

    How do they work? It's for a lvl and ive never seen them used until Hunter and I had a little war. And i was astonished at how they work they look sooo kewl.
    I would love to make something with them and Im positive they can make some great effects (Curse your friggin cannons that killed me over and over! )

    Luckily im not cool

    Its basically a sensor switch with a lightbulb.

    As long as the sackboy is in the radius (and on the same layer) the switch is on.

    Cheers Alp for the amazing sig!

    If it doesn't kill you it'll only make you stronger. But if it kills you, you'll be dead.

    If by searchlights you mean a tracking light, then I may have a solution for you. Let me know if that's what you want.

    If you want lights that kill you when you are within the radius, like in MGS4: Act 3 or 2 (don't remember), then you just hook up a sensor switch and tweak the radius to be the same as the light. Then, connect the sensor switch to something that kills you.

    If you want lights that follow you, you need to make a block, then add the wheels of the creature section, add a brain and tweak it to max speed, no jumps, and to follow. connect that to a light using a rod and you are done!

    The search lights are a switch that you get in the MGS pack and you find in the light section of your popit. They detect your sackboy when he is on the same plane as them and in their radius.
    Sadly I don't like or own MNR. Burnout Paradise FTW!
