PointLight

Supported Class World & Effects

A light source that emits illumination from a single point.

Description

A PointLight is a light source that emits illumination from a single point. Light is emitted spherically based on the PointLight.Range of the PointLight.

In order for a PointLight to provide illumination, it must be the direct child of a BasePart or Attachment (the part or attachment itself must be a descendant of the Workspace).

If a PointLight is parented to a part, then the light will emanate from the part's BasePart.Position. If a PointLight is parented to an attachment, then the light will emanate from the attachment's Attachment.WorldPosition.

For more light types, see the see also section.
