We just did some "tours" of other coastal areas in FotRSU while finishing-up the next release testing. We found that the Tall_LightHouse has a "reflector", like those Coastal Lights above, whereas the "regular" LightHouse is like that Dock lighthouse above, in that there is no reflector, and no focused light, only a simulation of one. Also of note is the fact that you CANNOT use the LightHouse and Tall_LightHouse assets from MapLocations in a regular Single Mission file, for some inexplicable SH4 reason. These two, as well as several other assets must be used through the Campaign_LOC.mis file. You WILL CTD your game trying otherwise...
- ask strikeback, he witnessed it
- the LCD_SearchLight is fine to use anywhere, as witnessed above. I have more pictures if anyone wants to see them.
btw - the SearchLight does follow airplanes, which is very, very cool...
