Point spotlight

Entity Description

An entity to draw a spotlight primarily consisting of two glow sprites: A beam when the player views it side on, and a halo when it's facing towards the player. Unless the 'No Dynamic Light' spawnflag is checked, it will also create a dynamic light wherever the end of the spotlight rests.

Note:Without the dynamic light this entity will just provide a sprite effect, and will not serve as an actual light source.
