Hi, i am looking to make it dark where the player is not looking in a top down. So only their line of sight is lit up, and everything else is dark. How do i achieve this?

Here are 2 options:
Create a rotating black sprite with a triangle cut out of it
Crate a new black layer set to Force Own Texture and put a triangle sprite on top of it with it's blend mode set to Destination out

if you don't want the player to be able to see past solid walls, it get slightly trickier.
see this thread from a few weeks ago for more suggestions:
