Always wanted to fly in the evening and see the town and village lights. How about a program which reads the objects of a map and returns lights (stationary objects) for certain buildings at the right positions and heights? Then you can use the output stationary lights file as a mission template. The prog would need as input file the map objects file (inBuildings.txt) and a building-corresponding light file such that when it encounters a buiding on the map it knows where to place the corresponding light(s). Then it would need also a scaling procedure, if the map has lots of houses then the scaling could reduce the number of lights to one-third etc. What do you think? Anyone?
