Light

How to create lighting that doesn't go through walls but still illuminates the walls themselves?

I'm sorry if the question is unclear, I used the GPT chat

Chat gpt created the question? That’s a new one. I thought people used it to get answers. Any particular reason you don’t just ask the question directly? I may just be confused though.

Anyways, since construct is a 2d engine you can use the shadow caster behavior to do shadows. But since you write walls maybe you mean on a 3d shape? In which case it’s a pain to do since the engine isn’t built for it. But search the forum and you can find some complicated solutions of sorts.

I translated the question into English using Chat GPT, because Google doesn't always translate well. And the question belongs to me

The walls are not 3D, just 2d walls. I want the light does not pass through them and not be able to see what's behind the wall and see the texture of the wall itself

That’s trickier. One quick way could be to use the line of sight behavior to see if a wall can be seen by the player and if it is move the wall to a layer above the shadows.

Otherwise I’d give it more thought and do the shadows another way. Probably drawing them with the canvas plug-in.
