Title: Ship lights?

OK, so there are the SEXPs ship-lights-on and ship-lights-off. What do they actually do? Are they for glowmaps, or something else, if something else, then how do I enable it.

Thye don't actually do anything.  They are an artifact from the early days of glowpoint code development which was never completed.

There are new sexps for the glowpoint and glowmap stuff that Bobboau did, though.  They'll be in FRED 3.5.

I had several variations of the code for a specific or all glow points/maps, they should be working

Sesquipedalian is right, at the moment they do nothing in 3.5. Here's a snippet of the SEXP code at the moment:

Code: [Select]

void sexp_ship_lights_on(int node) //-WMCoolmon
{
//Insert sexp here
}

void sexp_ship_lights_off(int node) //-WMCoolmon
{
//Insert sexp here
}

In that case, we should probably remove the ship-lights SEXPs in the next release...unless there's some other use planned for them?
