Class TCastleSpotLight

Unit

Declaration

type TCastleSpotLight = class(TCastlePunctualLight)

Description

Spot light shines a cone of light, from a given location, along a direction (-Z in local coordinates).

See X3D SpotLight specification for various details.

Properties

Public property Color: TCastleColorRGB read FColor write SetColor;

Light color shining over surface. By default white.

Public property Attenuation: TVector3 read FAttenuation write SetAttenuation;

Attenuation determines how quickly light intensity falls off with distance. By default Vector3(0, 0, 1), which means light falls off according to inverse square law.

Published property Intensity: Single read FIntensity write SetIntensity default 1.0;

Intensity, multiplied by color. Can be anything >= 0.

Published property Radius: Single read FRadius write SetRadius default DefaultRadius;

Light doesn't shine at all outside of a sphere with this radius. For performance reasons, set this as small as possible, to avoid even considering this light at further shapes. Set to -1 to have no limit.

Published property BeamWidth: Single read FBeamWidth write SetBeamWidth default DefaultBeamWidth;

Angle within which the spot light has maximum intensity.

If this is >= CutOffAngle (which is the default case), then the light has maximum intensity within CutOffAngle, and zero intensity outside CutOffAngle, and there it no smooth falloff.

You need to make BeamWidth < CutOffAngle to have a smooth falloff at the egdes of the spot light.

Published property CutOffAngle: Single read FCutOffAngle write SetCutOffAngle default DefaultCutOffAngle;

Angle within which the spot light has any intensity.

If BeamWidth < CutOffAngle then the light intensity falls off smoothly between BeamWidth and CutOffAngle.

The light intensity is always zero outside of CutOffAngle, regardless of the BeamWidth value.

Published property ColorPersistent: TCastleColorRGBPersistent read FColorPersistent ;

Color that can be visually edited in Castle Game Engine Editor, Lazarus and Delphi. Normal user code does not need to deal with this, instead read or write Color directly.
