Light

Select a Light (PointLight, SpotLight, or SurfaceLight) and run Transform to turn it into a SineVFX light emitter. Instead of a static light, it spawns short-lived light copies on emit, each one animated over its life, so you get flashes, pulses, and glows that fire on cue like any other effect.

What happens on transform

• The light is tagged in place and gains a Properties folder, seeded from its current Brightness, Range, and Color. The light stays on its parent (unlike the Screen Effect, lights persist).
• The original turns into the hidden source template. On emit, SineVFX clones it into the source's parent, ages each copy 0 -> 1 over its Lifetime along the Appearance graphs, then destroys it.
• Because lights don't move, this is a copy model, not a moving-particle one. Fire several at once and their brightness stacks on the part.

Property reference

Group	Property	Meaning
Emission	Enabled	Master toggle. Drives the runtime the same as the Emit window's Enable.
	Rate	Copies spawned per second while enabled (0 = one held play).
	Lifetime	How long each light copy lives before it fades out and is destroyed.
	TimeScale	Playback speed. 1 normal, 2 twice as fast, 0.5 slow motion, 0 frozen.
	EmitCount	How many copies a single Emit burst spawns.
Appearance	Brightness	Light intensity over the copy's life (graph). Shape it for a flash-and-fade.
	Range	Light reach in studs over life (graph).
	Color	Light colour over life (colour graph).

Author the graphs so t = 1 lands back at rest, so a copy fades out cleanly instead of popping.

Play model

Same emit / enable / disable verbs as everything else:

• Emit spawns EmitCount copies, once.
• Enable with Rate > 0 spawns a copy every 1 / Rate seconds until you disable.
• Enable with Rate 0 holds one play until disable.

Nesting

A transformed Light placed inside an emitter's RenderPart template bursts on spawn, so each particle can carry its own light (a glowing shard, a spark that actually lights the scene).

Preview and ship

Preview in the Emit window, then plant the runtime module and drive it with VFX.emit(light) / VFX.enable(light) / VFX.disable(light). See the Runtime API. Re-plant the module after editing so the generated code includes your light driver.
