Possible to knock out a towns lights?

[hokum15 2]

I've done a search for "lights" and "street lamps" but didnt find much.

I've got a mission where i knock out a towns power and the lights go off. Does anyone know how to do this?

I think there exist such an addon (or scripted add-in) that will do what you want, simulating powergrids around Sahrani.

Also have a look at the Biki nearObject type of commands, if I remember correctly there are examples there to turn on or off lights based on these commands.

First you need to locate the lamp object with nearestObject, then you switch the light off with switchLight.

This topic is where you will find the electrical grid script. If you dont want the player to take out the sub station, just destroy it at the start of the mission.

There is indeed a complex script you can get at OFPEC which has this capability. Do a quick search there. It links the light's status to the status of local substations. Great idea.
