Alright, I was following the TV tut, that has the TV turn off when the cord breaks. I figured you could do the same thing with a light, so I followed the tut, and nothing. I have it set like the tut (different entity names of course) and have everything set right it seems, but it wont work. When I change the light entity, it wont show up, and it makes my room really dark for some reason.
Is it possible to have a light turn off by breaking a cord?
Thanks in advance

Yes, you can. You can toggle most light point entities (no light_enviornments) by LightOn and LightOff.
Going by the tutorial, OnBreak target Light_Entity_Name via TurnOff.
Also, make sure you don't have the Initially Dark flag set.

Go figure, something simple. It was in fact via TurnOff. Thanks Joe.
