@@Robocal ik this was long ago but how>????

[@Robocal]

@@ebenkotke6184 i think i just made another public game object and called it light 2 or something. i did this a very long time ago tho so dont take my word on that

[@thepinkpanther249]

@@ebenkotke6184 You could just use a simple empty object, and put all lights as it's child. That way if you set that gameObject to false, all lights will go out.

TY SO MUCH! THE gameObject.GetComponent().Play("switch"); is all what i need this whole time! Much love!!!♥
