Aight, so i've been trying to figure this out for quite a while, can't seem to get it to work.

I'm trying to get my lights turn on when the power has been turned on, but I don't know the KVPs for it.

Any help is appreciated, thanks

That's a good question, I also want to know that.
I already set up my lights to only turn on in Light State 2 which will be the State when the power is on. But always when I start my map everything is already turned on. What can we do here?

I was able to do this today after extensive hours spent by creating two lighting states!

Lighting state 1 was just zombie factory, then after you switch the power switch it switches to lighting state 2.
I set all my perk machines to lighting state 2 so when the power switch was flipped the lights turned on.

However it gets a little tricky because you have to copy the zm_giant.gsc power aspects over to your new maps gsc...

If you need any further help i'd be glad to make a video for you

I would almost guarantee there is a quicker and faster way of doing this!  If anyone else knows please shed some light

You have to add it to your mapnamehere.gsc file in your usermap folder, that after the power turns on to change your lighting state.

Unless you already have that set properly, then I too have the same error, so I just switched the states, so that everything is off on state 2 (which seems to always be default) and put state 1 as my power on

I looked for the zm_giant.gsc, but there doesn't seem to be one..

Found the .gsc, I looked through it all, don't understand much though..

I've found
level util::set_lighting_state( 0 );

and
function power_electric_switch()

I'm not to sure how to implement it into my map though.

I'd highly recommend for you to make a YouTube video on it, many people don't know how to do it and i've researched everywhere over Google & YouTube and i can't find any info on how to.

its not the correct way anyway, as its either "all on or "all off" disregarding solo revive

Well i'd still like to know how to do it, I don't want it just for the Perk Machines, I want my entire map to light up when you turn the power on.

Yeah, I would like to know how to do it too, so I could set up perk lights and all my map lights to turn on with the power. Also if the Light State 2 is the default it should have a way to change that to Light State 1 for being the default one. If you guys could make a video it would be good. Thanks.

You could just do it through a script by getting all the light ents and setting the kvp for intensity or something like that.

Not sure if thats possible in bo3 though.

You say this isn't the right way, yet you don't include the proper way to do so?

If you guys are really interested, i'd be glad to make a quick tutorial - just let me know..

Can somebody make a video on this? Best way to learn is by watching a video of someone else doing it and showing you where everything is

I would greatly appreciate that!

Yes please do!

I will make a video either tonight, or tomorrow!
