|LightType|LightType|
|LightType|LightType| The type of light, which can be directional or point to name a couple.
|Intensity|Float|
|Intensity|Float| how intense the light is. This is a multiplier.
|Color|ColorX|
|Color|ColorX| the color of the light this source should project
|ShadowType|ShadowType|
|ShadowType|ShadowType| The type of shadow this light should use
|ShadowStrength|Float|
|ShadowStrength|Float| How dark the shadows are.
|ShadowNearPlane|Float|
|ShadowNearPlane|Float| How far away shadows will render for this point light.
|ShadowMapResolution|Int|
|ShadowMapResolution|Int| How detailed the resolution for shadows is in pixels.
|ShadowBias|Float|
|ShadowBias|Float| added to the distance in the shadow map to ensure that pixels on the borderline definitely pass the comparison as they should.
|ShadowNormalBias|Float|
|ShadowNormalBias|Float| Makes surrounding lit areas encroach upon the center shadow, making the encroached area lit too.
|Range|Float|
|Range|Float| How far for the light to shine in meters, where the range represents the point where the falloff stops.
|SpotAngle|Float|
|SpotAngle|Float| The angle from 0-180 when on spot light mode to project the light at. 0 is no light, 60 is like car headlights, and 180 is extreme and unrealistic.
|Cookie|{{RootFieldType|AssetRef`1|[[Type:ITexture2D|ITexture2D]]}}|TypeAdv11=true| The cookie texture is used to limit the light area of a spot light from a circle to a custom shape.
